I listen to My Brother, My Brother and Me because I like to listen to the three brothers be funny at each other.
Some people don't need or want intellectually challenging media all the dang time.
Most music isn’t intellectually challenging
Even dumb music is way harder to make than a shit podcast
it doesn't even have to be music, or have a point, just something to make you say "ok...wtf" and it's more interesting to me than "shootin the shit w mah dudebro brother dudes" type podcasts

I don't know what to tell you. Sorry that my preference isn't your preference?
It's light entertainment, who cares what other people like?
glad you enjoy it
It’s not challenging for the listener though.
I also listen to music?
I can do more than one thing, and I enjoy listening to them.
I don't get why this is getting pushback. It's weird to refuse to understand that other people have different tastes in media consumption.
Because you're lowering our collective IQ listening to cringe bullshit as entertainment.

I rather call these pointless convoys challenging media. I understand nothing, yet it's quite annoying noise to my ears.
fair enough
Episodes 1-250 were great. They’re insufferably flanderized now.
The most recentish eps (from about a month or so back) have been hitting me a lot better than their "during Covid" era for sure. I got into them late though, sorry to hear what they are now isn't what you enjoy of them anymore. I had the same feeling about Game Grumps right around when they stopped doing episode numbering.
Fair! I gave up at about 300. I still revisit 1-100 sometimes though. So good.
I'd say it's worth checking out a more recent episode or two to see if they've gotten better, but I'd also totally understand just being done.
Personally, I'm super glad I stuck with it because otherwise I'd probably also have dropped The Adventure Zone, and the newest Dracula arc has been really satisfying to me.
That's when i read a simple manga or something. Those poor ears.
I'm not saying your approach to how you spend your free time relaxing with the media you enjoy is wrong or bad.
I'd really like people to stop insinuating that my approach to how I spend my free time relaxing with the media I enjoy is wrong or bad, though.
Fiction makes me depressed sometimes
