Yeah it’s only on patreon, as it should be cause they go in

 

damn

 

Around 1:05:30 - granted this is the free feed version.

 

thank you!

 

it looks post apocalyptic

 

someone put it on YouTube

 

I'm interested in listening but feel kinda bad that it was uploaded if it is potentially career-damaging.

 

people suck, they’re correct in making fun of their fans

 

i upgraded to platinum plate to listen like a true fan

 

Amelia: (Wearing five forks sweatshirt) I would give it half a star.
Wiger: Half a star … and we do forks.

 

Your back sounds like a freaking bingo night

 

the more famous than convo is incredible podding

 

They’re so close to doing ads for cigarettes

 

I think i’m where Hodgman is regarding Chik Fil A. I know most places i buy from are ethically shitty, but they are so proud and vocal about being absolute pieces of shit that I’m not comfortable supporting them.

 

plus zaxbys is better

 

those miracle berries are crazy. I would love to have one every morning with some grapefruit for breakfast.

 

Yeah chick fil a as a company sucks and is just fine food wise. The only time I ever get it is if my gf wants it because she likes their grilled chicken sandwich.

 

Wiger thinking he'd freak out on them is hilarious. Sounds like he could use an actual trip to learn how to take it easy.

 

Would you mind linking me to it?

 

Not supporting CFA at all, I agree that they are ethically shitty, but please give me something they are proud and vocal about in the past... let's say... 5 years.

 

YOU SHALL NOT BUST

 

I probably phrased that wrong. It’s more just like it’s very common knowledge that chick fil a is staunchly anti LBGTQ+ and continues to fund initiatives that hurt queer people, while they might now know all of the shitty things other chains do

 

They deservingly were met with tons of protests, etc. back in 2019 when it was openly discussed, they've since "stopped".



EXCLUSIVE: Chick-fil-A To Stop Donations To Charities With Anti-LGBT Views


EXCLUSIVE: Chick-fil-A To Stop Donations To Charities With Anti-LGBT Views

In an interview with Bisnow in 2019, Chick-fil-A President Tim Tassopoulos said the company will stop donating to charities with anti-LGBTQ views. The company will instead donate to charities focused on education, homelessness and hunger. These new organizations could include both faith-based and non-faith-based charities, but the company said none of the organizations have anti-LGBTQ positions.






Also worth the 60 second read;

In 2017, Chick-fil-A said it was warning all its franchisees against speaking out publicly or getting involved in anything that could blur the line between their private beliefs and their public roles as extensions of the Chick-fil-A brand. In 2017, that message extended to politics, in part to keep the brand from being exploited by candidates. The company turned down several candidates who tried to use Chick-fil-A to bolster their campaigns, according to David Farmer, Chick-fil-A's vice president of menu strategy and development. "There are several candidates who would like to use us as a platform," Farmer told Business Insider. "We are not engaging. Chick-fil-A is about food, and that's it. "The company still encourages its franchisees to get 'entrenched' in their communities..." Traditionally, that has meant getting involved in local churches. Chick-fil-A says its focus now—both for local and corporate involvement and philanthropy—is on youth and education causes.




That all to say, they are still very "traditional family" Christian rhetoric based, but I feel like it has been toned down since the backlash they received.

 

We really don’t need to be simping for a giant corporation in 2025. Go eat chick fil a. No one is stopping you.
