It’s impossible to loathe these people enough.

This is really good news. It is more proof that nothing has changed regarding who controls legacy institutions. And it's another data point for the next time your liberal friends ask for proof that popular culture has a Left-wing bias. Yes, many liberals still don't believe it.

Seriously why isn’t Free Thinking on the list? They can’t handle the truth— that’s why.

Keep figuratively kicking them in the throat! Love you Sasha

I've never heard of any of those.

I’ve only heard of “Call her Daddy”, and only because Kamala went on that one.

I’m shocked Hollywood would let such an opportunity to nominate Free Thinking and the numerous times Sasha uploaded social media posts from TDS sufferers from central casting! Some of these folks actually deserve the slew of awards everyone involved with One Battle… will undoubtedly receive

They’re the true believers from the left! They make DiCaprio etc look like sissies. Major Respect to Sasha for sitting through this fog of delusion to untold hours of footage she sprinkles into Free Thinking posts. Sasha Stone YOU are straight up BAD ASS

First, Thank you for all your work— secondly— I’ll speak for myself— you have got to quit apologizing for not putting out more shows. I’m amazed at how much you do post— and here’s the kicker—the level of honesty and integrity Free Thinking/Woketopia exhibit. Let corporate media and Hollywood both die already! Neither have even a hint of credibility left.

So predictable. So boring. So old.

Oh well. Only the anointed are eligible to be blessed by the elites.

So true, and it took me forever to figure that out

Aside from Call Her Daddy and the corporate mess known as NPR, I have no idea about the nominated podcasts. No worries, though. Like the Oscars (formerly and correctly known as the Academy Awards), the Golden Globes have hit solid ground and are preparing to get out the proverbial shovel to start digging.

What does Soma mean?

Frontera Lupita's avatar

“SOMA is the brand name for the prescription medication, a muscle relaxant used for short term relief of discomfort associated with acute musculoskeletal conditions such as strains, sprains, and back injuries”.

It also refers to “an ancient ritual drink in Vedic tradition made from the juice of a plant known to be intoxicating, used as an offering to the gods, and as a drink of immortality by worshippers of Vedic ritual.”

Which SOMA Sasha refers to here is unclear.

Or a third and possible reference to what SOMA is here to Sasha:

SOMA A drug used in Huxley’s utopian novel “Brave New World”. The substance is supposed to have the affect of modern drugs, yet no side-effects. Could describe pure bliss, oblivion, pure love, or pure utopia”.

Many thanks FL

It's the reference to Huxley's book. Once upon a time, kids in HS had 'required reading' in English class and covered many, many books. IDK how the list was figured out, but this Boomer who spent his HS years training for the Catholic priesthood in NYC has read a lot of the same books as some kid in a shitty public school in South Central LA.

There is a quality to a central culture. Even Babe the Blue Ox would agree.... :)

Truly, who cares?

No Scott Adams or Bridget Phetasy. No Matt and Walter. And of course no Sasha! They're like a spider retreating into a hole and pulling the trap door closed behind them.

Leave em alone, I say. They need no help devouring each other.

This is the bed they made/they wanted; now they have to lie in it.

And boy do they lie
