It's interesting to see the Reddit comments about Ethan reducing everything to left vs. right and branding anyone who opposes him as evil...

... the transformation really is complete. When I started watching him he was just making fun of ess jay double yews getting triggered!!!! and now even *his fans* on *Reddit* of all places see him as being a negative leftist reactionary.

Idubbbz demise is terrible, but he just sort of fell off and started sucking. With Ethan it's more of a complete 180.

I haven't watched a full podcast episode in a long time, so I decided to sit down and open this. I'm only 27 minutes in and the sheer level of delusion and MATI is incredible. A few notes (episode linked here):

  • Ethan, paraphrased: "Everyone seems to hate me. Everyone besides the people in this room." Note: Hila is not in the room.
  • Dan, paraphrased: "You're probably confused as to why everyone's hating on us if you don't use Reddit." Showcases the fact that the Redditors are the only audience that they notice. Obviously the only reason H3 could be getting hate is that there's a random circlejerk on reddit. No legitimate reasons there!
  • Ethan on the show quality: "Yeah, the show's been lazy, but guess what, I HAD A KID!!!!!" followed up with his direct quote, "I'm not gonna give it to you guys. Y'all can honestly fuck yourselves." Ethan, there are people working difficult jobs who need paternity leave because without it, they can't help raise their children in these very early days of infancy. They need time off because they have 9-5 jobs where they work their asses off. You walk into a dirty studio with no script and sperg for two hours while your producers take turns sucking you off. This is not the same.
  • "I have a loaded shotgun in my bedroom, in my gunsafe," - Ethan on the 2nd Amendment. Very intimidating. He's complaining that Jeff Wittek and his friend tried to dox him and cryptically showed up at his house.
  • "This is the thing. I can't shut my fucking mouth." - Ethan saying out loud what we've been thinking for years.

Also, they admit that they're deleting posts on their subreddit that complain about their show. Positive vibes only, guys!

Oh, one last gem, linked with timestamp here:
  • "I'm telling you, conservative - I'm just telling you guys, I'm not - this isn't a bias, this is just reality - conservatives are - they are, I know this is a generalization but this is probably true about 80% I say, they are the most brain-rotted, backwood, fascist losers, piecest of shit, used-tampon asses." - Ethan achieving nirvana
Edit: I have finished the podcast. Imagine having to procrastinate on listening to a podcast - that's how bad it is. I've spoilered the parts that stand out so you don't have to endure the sperging:

Ethan attacks an undeniably retarded tweet from Rep. Clay Higgins, who uses the crisis in Ukraine to attack leftist millennials. He accuses Clay Higgins of never having lived under threat of nuclear war because he was born 2 years after the Cuban Missile Crisis. What slips Ethan’s braindead mind is that the Cold War didn’t end with the Cuban Missile Crisis. That was an entire period defined by the threat of nuclear war.

“We can have a conversation about trans issues” no, we can’t. God forbid you suggest that gender is innate and unchangeable. The entire idea of objective reasoning has been called transphobic. Worth noting that Ethan immediately suggests that you’re stupid if you don’t agree with him on trans issues. Great conversation. “Progress is inevitable” – Ethan Klein.

He’s also suggesting that Trump trying to withhold aid to Ukraine is proof that he was helping Russia attempt to invade Ukraine. I won’t go any more into that because it’s political nonsense sperging, but Ethan is 100% the first person to suggest that Trump was deliberately trying to get Ukraine invaded. He’s really MATI right here, dropping low-effort insults about anyone and anything.

One of Ethan’s producers is at home with COVID. Ethan pressures the producer to show off the room. “I don’t want to be doxed,” the producer says. “Who’s gonna dox you?” Ethan asks, assuming that since the world revolves around him, OPSEC only matters for him. He then pressures this producer to say “yeah, it’s a great apartment!” because we can’t have people knowing that his employees live on Skid Row.

Ethan asks his producers if they think that “a nuclear hol– nuclear war is inevitable?” He tries to offer takes on geopolitics and Putin’s mentality. There are experts in international politics fields whose takes I will listen to. Ethan Klein and his bearded, beanie-wearing friends are not those experts. It’s very clear that Ethan and his friends don’t know how a nuclear war would actually go down (hint: we would probably not all die thanks to missile defense systems, but we would lose millions on the west coast before it ended). Ethan calls Putin crazy and at the same time assumes he’s a rational actor, again proving that he knows absolutely nothing about international diplomacy.

To prove that he’s pro-worker’s rights, Ethan has offered to give his producers $100 and pay for their copies of Elden Ring if they can beat the first boss. A redditor to his core, Ethan insists that it’s “the best game ever” and “the best game of the decade.”

Ethan gets a call from a conservative viewer. The viewer says that his side isn’t always represented by the best people, but takes issue with his calling conservatives “brain-rotted” and asks, “what the fuck do you guys have?” Ethan’s response is instant and smarmy as ever: “Smart, enlightened, educated.” Ethan dodges the caller's questions by mindlessly throwing in his own questions. Ethan calls the people in conservative media “the most hateful people in the media who exist today,” and attacks them relentlessly. But then he equates these people to the majority of the conservative movement. He more or less pushes the caller into saying “I’m a good conservative, not like those bad ones everywhere else.”

Ethan takes a call from a 20-year-old fan who was attacked by a bear. This call is only notable because Ethan does the remarkable and victim-shames a bear-attack victim, saying that it obviously didn’t want to kill her because if it wanted to, it would have done so. He then proceeds to say “don’t you feel bad for the poor bear?” when he learns that the govt had to kill it. If it’s a joke then he’s really bad at delivering. If it isn’t, then goddamn is he retarded. He has her saying “it was my fault, not his” by the end of the conversation. She apparently gets triggered by his merch that has bears on it. Ethan forgets that the caller is still in the call because he goes off on some sort of stupid tangent, as he so often does.

Ethan’s producers roll over so fucking quickly when they’re in any disagreement, even in something as simple as “if I fight a chimpanzee I deserve to have a tool to defend myself.” He then segues into a long, boring bit about how easy it would be to fight different animals. The only interesting part is that Ethan Klein thinks he can fight the pop artist Pitbull, a take laced with so much copium that you’d get locked up for prescribing it.

The show is utterly uninteresting for the remaining hour. At the very end, Ethan and his staff tell the viewers to keep their expectations low. Ethan tells his producers to cut him off because he’s clearly about to go back to yelling at his haters.

The top podcasts out there often have more to their shows than "a few people having casual, uninteresting conversations." But when such podcasts have nothing to say, they rely on the hosts having fun personalities that carry the episode. And when Ethan’s podcast started, it brought on interesting people whose interesting topics made the show itself tolerable. This episode (and this applies to the entire state of the podcast) has no interesting topics with no interesting people. Ethan’s cohosts are his producers, and they contribute so little that Ethan should be paying them below minimum wage. Ethan himself should be getting paid nothing for this podcast, and the fact that he has listeners, let alone sponsors, baffles me. I genuinely hope for his own good that Ethan cancels the show, repairs his relationships at home and elsewhere, finds a healthier place for himself both physically and mentally, and will someday be able to look back at this time as a challenge that he had to overcome. Because he clearly didn’t enjoy that episode any more than I did, and the people who still do enjoy it are only enabling his misery.

Has Ethan always been this dumb or is he getting a sustained contact high of retardation from being around Hasan? Beanie Man wasn't exactly writing a knee slapper that a prime Louis CK would've used on stage, but come on.

Let's count the ways Ethan is a total hypocrite:
  1. Built his platform on being anti-SJW / Now claims to be "woke"
  2. Claims to be against bigotry and fatphobia / Actively mocks people's appearances on his YouTube channel
  3. Allies himself with socialist YouTubers like Hasanabi / Literally has benefited in every way from capitalism (lest I forget him calling working class people "peasants" on Twitter)
  4. Claims to be pro-women and feminist / Literally bragged about how fast his wife's body bounced back after her pregnancy
  5. Claims to be anti-bullying / Told Mikhaila Peterson that she's a piece of shit for having a social media presence (??) during her father's health scare
  6. Claims to be sensitive to mental health sufferers / Gave a platform to a mentally unwell woman and then allowed his followers to go rabid on her when she left his podcast
  7. Mocked those who refused a vaccine / Is morbidly obese and visibly unhealthy

lmao just a few weeks/months ago, he was begging Ethan that he would take Nicvocado's place on the podcast after Nick said he wasn't going to do it.

Rich is just a YT drama queen at the end of the day and this title is just clickbiat for a overwhelmingly tame 'takedown' of Ethan. It does stand to show that even his bigger dicksuckers are breaking away and seeing that something aint right with Ethan these days. Sad!

Trust me when I say this podcast just got juicy. Posting as I’m watching live, the show is almost finished I’ll write a post so you great guys can hear what caused Ethan to throw a tantrum as he’s forced to defend his shitty take about the conversion therapy and his hateboner for Jordan Peterson

Sounds good. Maybe just give us a time stamp for the beginning of the fun.
