Episode 57: There's No Accountability To Accountability Lists These Days (feat. Jonathan Chait)

Jesse and Katie talk about Jesse's inclusion on a very special list of very special bigots, Katie's addition to the ever-growing list of people who got Doyle'd, and an annoyingly one-sided front-page New York Times piece about online censorship. Then they throw to an interview Jesse did with Jon Chait, an excellent writer and thinker who had a big impact on Jesse's own work over the years.Jesse on the disgraceful GLAAD clusterfuck: https://jessesingal.substack.com/p/glaad-took-false-previously-disproven Jon Chait - Not a Very P.C.
