I’m sorry but the moment the Magpod writers (Johnny specifically) started to get uppity about having tonal and plot inconsistencies that undermine the stated thesis of the show being pointed out and instead have them be waved away as ‘dream logic’ bullshit connected to the fears I stopped caring about what anything the podcast was trying to say and instead only care about what emotions it instilled in me.

A nuanced take on addiction and power dynamics? No that’s just victim blaming. Sorry. Show your work without the above stated contradictions. I’m waiting.
