Скачать или смотреть Satellite Haiku - episode 015: Cancel culture, our scouting days, and revenge of the dumb assholes

We wonder, is there a formula for deciding whether a famous person should be canceled? Shawn posits there is, sort of. Collectively we seem to weigh a subject’s bad behavior against their talent and cultural contribution. With that settled, we remember our experiences with scouting, and then somehow wind up talking about apocalypse and the collapse of America once again.

A correction:
Ennis Cosby, son of Bill Cosby, was murdered in Los Angeles in an apparent robbery attempt while stopped on the side of a freeway to change a flat tire. In a similar tragedy we mention in this episode, it was Michael Jordan’s father, James Jordan, not his son, who was murdered while sleeping in his car.
