Live from Rush's Bedroom Toilet | Rush Limbaugh
Summary
Ren Martinez and Ginger Golub tackle the complex task of discussing Rush Limbaugh's deeply problematic legacy, from his humble beginnings and numerous firings to his rise to national syndication after the repeal of the Fairness Doctrine. The hosts meticulously detail Limbaugh's long history of making virulently racist, homophobic, and misogynistic remarks, including his "undeniable truths" and derogatory lingo. The episode also touches on his Presidential Medal of Freedom and the surprising revelation of his children's book series.Episode description
Welcome back, dear listeners. Sorry for the delay; did you know that they don't teach you audio editing in undergraduate social science programs? No matter! On this week's episode, Ren discusses how difficult it is to talk about someone's legacy, especially when that someone is Rush Limbaugh. Virulent racist, gross-ass homophobe, and writer of children's books (featuring a talking horse named Liberty, which is as terrifying as it sounds), Ginger gets schooled on some of Rush's greatest lessons, such as the proper usage of the word "feminazi," how to get fired from almost every job, and why Europe is vastly inferior to the US (hint: it has something to do with interior plumbing). Also, we have the (brief) return of Beans! Citations at thisfnguypod.com.
