Funny, was thinking the same about the left. Hell they have already begun the cleansing...
Well not surprising since the ones that banned you on old-GAf are the same people that banned you on Era pretty much...

The far right are a bunch of un-unified morons that even the right can’t stand. The far left is like a hive mind of NPCs. They all think and act the same all while seeing who can be the most woke so they can
get retweets. I would say that Gamespot, IGN, and Kinda Funny fit the bill perfectly for being far left. Imagine how many retweets Greg got for backstabbing his supposed best friend. I bet he was hard for a month staight with all of his twitter and resetera fame.

I like Colin, but not a big fan of his show. It isn't bad, just feels oddly amateur and boring I guess? Doesn't gel well with his cohost either. Not horrible just surprising it's the biggest one. But if anyone is going to occupy that top spot, I'm glad it's him over some of the other faces of games "journalism" today.

Happy for Colin, he deserves it.

Are you seriously maintaining the left doesn't have censorious tendencies? You can get a milquetoast conservative like Jason Riley banned from campuses. Brendan Eich was chased out of his own company. Get real.

Good job Collin. What happened to him was appalling and the fact that he's now likely making more than the entire KF group combined is sweet, sweet justice. He was always the only really interesting one there anyway, Nick is nice and all, but Gregg is a spineless puddle of jelly and Tim is genuinely borderline dull, in the stupid sense.
It's not get woke go broke, it's don't bow down to arrogant militant retards and you'll make even more money.

Really happy for Colin and he deserves it, Kinda Funny to me was never the same after he left and the way he left was horrible.
While i sometimes love Greg still , the best thing about KF nowadays is Nick and Andy. how they made Kevin a host of anything at all is beyond me, the guy is horrible and get me start on Tim, all of him just seems fake and i wouldnt be surprised if the biggest detractor of what happened to Colin for the start.

If you're gonna shill his content show me an example. It's gonna be on YT right? Show me, I'm interested. Always disliked Greg Miller though, he always rubbed me the wrong way.

I am not the biggest follower in the world, but I am a fan. It seems Colin lost his way for a while (at least to me it seemed that way). I think it's fantastic that he found his way and seems to be enjoying video games again.. I find it disgusting the way he way he was treated by Greg. When you call someone your "best friend" and claim to love someone as much as a friend as much as Greg used to say, you DO NOT throw them under the bus. Anyway, congratulations to Colin for bouncing back. I haven't watched Kinda Funny since he left.

Knockback is one of the greatest podcasts ever. His brother Dagan is such a wholesome and interesting dude, and I can listen to him and Colin for hours, even when they talk about things I usually don't care about, like cereal mascots.
I suppose that massively stupid "peace and quiet" nontroversy ended up being a blessing in disguise. Colin's in a much better place now "thanks" to that.

Well done Colin. The one podcast where I usually drop everything else I’m listening to, to listen to. Kinda funny has become so bland I barely listen to anymore. The new guy, Blessing is so boring he bangs on and on about some shit indie game he doesn’t even like for 10 mins. Imran is just a negative cunt and Greg is cant offend anyone in case he loses a gig, sponsor or inside contact. Andy is cool though.

Not even Bernie Sanders is far left, whether you want to believe it or not, so no.
Maybe Greg is a douche, sure, but what does that have to do with his political standpoint, which both you and I have no fucking idea about?
‘The left’ is not a person. I’m sure there are a lot of crazy folks who think they’re left leaning, or like to describe themselves as such, although their actions indicate they’re really not. Especially in America, where the term ‘left’ is often misinterpreted in the first place.
The fundamental idea of far right politics on the other hand, is to exclude people based on race, sexuality, religion and economic status. That’s the point I was trying to make.
Edit: I like Colin by the way, and Sacred Symbols is a good podcast.

He made a joke about women making a sandwich on women's day. Also he has some conservative leanings. He doesnt share all their ideas. That's enough over there.
I like Sacred Symbols but the episodes could definitely use some fat trimming - do we really need to hear them read word for word press releases for every single PS4 game that happens to be releasing that week?
Also the only time I've heard Colin say anything remotely political was when he made fun of Trump for something, he ain't exactly Breitbart.

He is boring. But he is knowledgeable. Greg was enthusiasm. Thats why they were a great fit. It cant be that tweet that did him though. Like he even lost a gf cause of it? Gg.

No, the gf thing was unrelated.... was nothing to do with the tweet or leaving kf.

Been following Colin since the early days of Podcast Beyond. I've supported him on Patreon since day 1, the content is totally worth more than the $5 a month I pay. This is the only Patreon that I support now, I cut off my support to Kinda Funny when he left.

He’s insufferable: arrogant, prickly and boring. Totally bereft of any charm. One of those guys who think he’s the smartest of the bunch but he’s actually anything but. IGN made him famous because IGN is major brand that uplifts all kinds of personalities that work there, you can see that throughout years.
And his republicanism is also pretty fake and shallow. Didn’t he leave GOP over something stupid and declare it on twitter? He was always ranting about taxation and guns while claiming to be liberal on social issues as to avoid ire of his California buddies. I never saw him as honest.

Same here, I like Colin too, but it’s pretty obvious from listening that him and Cris doesn’t have great chemistry and nowhere close to what he had with Greg. I’m surprised too how popular it is, but good for Colin.

To be fair when it came to Kinda Funny he was the smartest of the bunch.

He tweeted:
"Ah. Peace and quiet". On national women's day.
Not "make a sandwich".
It was hilarious, WAY more so now.

It helped a lot that he was on JRE twice. I didn't like him too much untill I listened to him outside of Kinda Funny, P.S. I Love You.
