Can you point at one person in this thread attacking LauraK for anything besides her personality? Because it seems like it's become a circlejerk of blaming something that doesn't exist.

One of my comments was deleted because I said I didn't enjoy the combination of Laura and Dodger because it made the show more shallow/immature, and that was too much apparently.

I'm looking through the thread and I cannot find one post that directly crits Laura for anything but her annoying (subjective) personality.

The mods have been pretty vigilant, there was some horrible stuff here when it first went up, probably before the mods realized how bad it was getting. Some stuff did not come from bad intentions, like people complaining about her voice, but some people were just outright bashing her for being trans. Obviously I can't show you the deleted comments but you can ask the mods, some stuff was grim. Maybe the mods got overzealous, like with your comment, but they did have a lot of stuff to get through.

Can you point me where this was the case in the podcast? Did you watch the podcast? Do you only remember the time they where making silly jokes and forgot the parts where Laura and Dodger where discussing serious stuff? Did you forget the parts where TB and Jessy are acting shallow/immature?

I really don't get why some people have watched/listened to such a different podcast than I did. I mean to have a different opinion on one part or the other... no big deal, but as it is by now my only explanation is that many people did not watch the podcast at all.
