A community for discussion of anything related to the Cool Zone Media podcast network and its hosts.
Robert Evans’ Behind the Bastards is the most popular thing they put out, but some of the others include It Could Happen Here, Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff, Hood Politics, Away Days, and Better Offline.
The network covers a wide range of topics, both current and historical. Even if most of the content isn’t your thing and you’re not bothered about joining this community there’s likely at least one thing in there that you have some interest in, and could be worth a listen for you.
I included the parenthesis part in the title as I imagine the memey network name isn’t nearly as well known as their biggest individual podcasts and might not get across exactly what the community is about, but I can remove it if I shouldn’t be doing that
Cool! I’m looking forward to tips om how to nuke the Great Lakes, revelations about the Grand Rapids murders allegedly not committed by Jamie Loftus, and the Hello Fresh cannibalism island!
Don’t forget all that sweet, sweet macheticine!
The subreddit /r/itcouldhappenhere is generally great, which is based on Robert’s podcast of the same name.
The first season of It Could Happen Here was great stuff.
I still listen to them but only when I’m out of podcasts. I search for the name “Robert” in the show description and listen to all of those.
I feel bad, they are all great but I’m here for Robert Evans.
Im a big BtB fan but cannot stomach ICHH. I wish they didnt lump the weekly recap in on the BtB feed because whenever my commute runs over an hour, Spotify starts playing it after BtB finishes and im stuck listening until i get home or stop somewhere.
Yeah, some of the rest of the team hit, some don’t. When it’s just hate preaching, I can’t do it. I loved the concept and topics in Better Offline, but Ed Zitron needs to go to a boxing gym and hit something for a couple hours and get it all out.
Agreed on the first season. I enjoy the other hosts on the network, but enough of the roundtable of them on the current incarnation if ICHH are sort of meh.
Speaking of which, does anyone remember when Brandon Johnson (aka the badass mayor of Chicago) and Robert had a podcast still under Cracked?
Can someone freaking post in there so I can ad the community. I don’t know if it’s my iPhone or the voyager ap I use but the interface isn’t exactly intuitive.
I’ve clicked on that every which way but can only search in the community not find the way to freaking add it. I can add a community by clicking on it from a post in the community tho.
Im on Android Yoyager and clicked the link to the community, clicked the 3 dot menu, and clicked subscribe.
Never mind I got it. God damn everything seems to be the opposite of were I’d put it in an app.
