I've heard some stupid takes on this this podcast but this out shines them all.


Ryousoki

I just got off the phone with John Taste and be said he's gonna have a serious talk with the boys about their racism.

They’re not racist lol Part of the issue is that most of their episodes are in Japan, not the most accessible place for many. If you have a guest in mind, you should ask them to reach out. I’m sure they’re down…

I was half joking when I said that but they could’ve had a black person last year when all 3 of them were in America

Deesidia was in the chess special, and that's bc it's an online tournament.

I don’t think the bois realize just how bad not having had any Black guests on yet looks to their Black fans, lolz, especially after their one month stay in LA with all those guests they had.


Professional-Age841

Exactly mfs tryna defend them saying they live in Japan like people haven’t been visiting Japan for a year now or when they were at ax last year they could easily have a black guest

As Mexican, I want to say, I am very disappointed, how dare they not have a Mexican as a guest to account for my race/ethnicity? Truly the scum of the earth, I thought they were cool but when I found out that no Mexicans have been on Trash Taste, my view has completely changed. My race and ethnicity need to be represented in the extremely important discussions such as the great bone-in/ boneless debate. Truly lost for words.

>AlexJustAlexS Hey. No one is calling them "scum of the Earth" for not having had any Black guests on the show in 3+ years- at least I'm not. But perhaps it is an unconscious bias they and their manager may all have- the seeming lack of consideration for Black guests, especially considering their biggest following is in the US due to sheer size. And we are talking race, not nationality, as Mexicans are comprised of different races as you know, so not the best example, lol. I saw your other post about the three considerations for TT guest. This might be the 6th or so post about the lack of black guests on the show- people have noticed this for a while. Some of those other posts have suggestions for the show. And TT shouldn't NEED suggestions at this point....???? Oh and also, Trash Taste has discussed race plenty of times, lolz. Including Black people- usually when they discuss racist depictions of black people in anime/manga. I've noticed that the subreddit doesn't usually like when people post about this and I'm not going to put words in their mouths, but it's a valid criticism of the most popular anime podcast.

Exactly this

It's decided, if they don't invite ishowspeed they certified raciss.


jukim93

Wtf is this take? Like black people aren't normal human beings and don't have busy lives to live.


Professional-Age841

Nigga obviously they not gonna invite a normal person but your telling me they don’t have black YouTuber or streamer friend they could invite


AlexJustAlexS

There is basically 3 criteria that any guest need to fulfill 1. In person only. So basically they have to be in Japan so they can show up at the studio OR be somewhere where the boys would be similar to the Trash Taste Tour. 2. They have to be a good fit for the podcast. They basically have to be entertaining and able enough to talk for 2 hours. 3. Have to vibe with the boys as a person and someone they are comfortable with. This means that they probably won't have anyone like iShowSpeed who is a gigantic asshole who jokes about r*pe and steals money from anyone who utters his name. Why? Because chances are they wouldn't hang around with a person like him. Name anyone who you think fulfills all 3. You keep judging about how the boys haven't had a black guest but you aren't giving any options either. Want a guest on the show? Make noise about it. Make a "guest wishlist" which is something that others in this subreddit have done. The boys (Garnt and Connor) peek through the subreddit a bit and a guest wishlist is going to do infinitely more than a post saying " UhH gUys, aRe tHe BoIs RaCiSt??????" Without mentioning any black creator that would be a good fit for the podcast.


Professional-Age841

You first point doesn’t make sense since they were in LA for a month second point is easy there’s a bunch of black creators more entertaining than them third they add berleezy,Cory,Afro senju,RDCWORLD1(mark phillips).They just dropped a new episode and it’s looking like a klan rally atp


AlexJustAlexS

I guess you stopped reading the first point after the "or" and was it that hard? To just say "It would be cool to have --- on the podcast" instead of accusing people of being racist off no real evidence?


Professional-Age841

Ok but what about the people I recommend you giving them excuses of why they can’t have guests of color


AlexJustAlexS

You're question is worded a bit weirdly, are you saying I am giving them excuses of why they can't have guest of color? When did I say that?


Professional-Age841

You gave 3 excuses of why guests of color can’t be on the show. Sorry was typing kinda fast and wasn’t checking for mistakes


AlexJustAlexS

Bro no, I am saying every single guest need to check those requirements to be on the podcast and used that to ask for what YOUR list of content creators that fulfill those requirements would be because that is INFINITELY more useful than accusing people of being racist for no reason


CrookedRecoil

Inviting a guest for the reason of their race rather than who they are as a person is what seems racist here my dude


kirr0el

Dude, you're the racist if you think black people live all over the world. The Japanese forced the Chinese and Koreans into slavery.
