Quote by TYTS:
"Nov 27, 2024 TYT Sports - Clip of the Day
Comedian Steve Hofstetter never shies away from getting political during his stand-up sets, calling out the blatant double standards of Donald Trump's most loyal servants like Lauren Boebert, Matt Gaetz, Ted Cruz, and others. Rick Strom breaks it down. Give us your thoughts in the comments below!"

“People act like #trans people are new. Trans people aren’t new, we just hadn’t been paying attention. Trans people have been around a very long time. Some native cultures revere trans people, they refer to them as ‘two spirit.’

But that’s a difficult point to make. Because most people who are anti-trans are also anti native culture.”

The #SundayPodcastRec 

Podcast: #FailingForward 
Host: Steve Hofstetter
Comes out: no longer produced
Duration: approx 45 minutes
Subject: interview

The official about:
Failing Forward is a podcast all about the times when everything goes wrong. Some stories are funny, some are sad, and some are motivational.
And sometimes they're even heartwarming.
Whoever the guest, comedian Steve Hofstetter will take you on a journey through failure, rejection, and sometimes…thankfully…success.

My thoughts:
For a show hosted by a comedian, this is one of the most poignant podcasts I’ve ever listened to. It’s up there with Louis Theroux for me. I listened to the entire 40+ episodes during the first covid lockdown and I wish there’d been more episodes. You will laugh, you will cry and, if you don’t, you may not be human.

My rating:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐️

Continued thread

Steve came up with so many great points, analogies, and critiques of the manipulative hatred and fear mongering behind this kind of stuff.

I applaud him for not just being a stand up comedian, but a stand up guy taking risks to speak freely as he stands up for others. Yes he stands up from a position of cis-white privilege, but he uses it well. We could all learn a lot from him and others doing the same.
