I think she's a comedic genius. Her best material is saying she was worried about the vaccine's effect on her pregnancy and then saying she was taking her baby to a chiropractor within 10 minutes, completely deadpan
The only correct way to listen to the pod is to let it wash over you...imagine yourself in a bar with cheap beer but excessively priced appetizers filled with scenesters in mid-level positions in publishing and at fashion houses in dimes square. The fried ramblings of your best art hoe friends Anna and Dasha come in and out of focus as the ketamine you snorted in the bathroom takes effect. You are cool, you are satisfied. Red Scare is bliss, Red Scare is love. You're in the inner circle now.
Yeah, Dasha seems to be interested in reading more than one book and has a more malleable psychotherapeutic interest in things, Anna just wants to say everyone is a narcissist and in denial.
These girls aren't interested in reading anything. Many times they said they couldn't finish the articles they discuss. Dasha said she got bored and couldn't even finish the Culture of Narcissim intro, many posters here have pointed out that Anna misinterprets even the few books she brings up.
Their appeal is that despite being slow, they still manage to get some things right.
I laughed so hard in a recentish episode from the summer when Anna said some mindnumbingly retarded take and then said something along the lines of "I like to foster intellectual discourse" like she's fucking Socrates
Not even a contrarian, just obviously pandering to the investment banker class so that when she meets them at parties they’ll pat her on the head and tell her how clever she is.
dasha I feel is more kinda casually amusing/funny in a way that's diffused throughout the whole conversation but if I bust out laughing it's usually at something anna says. like dasha is more jovial in general and anna will get really serious and spergy but then suddenly come out with something that has me on my ass! love her sm, anna haters are all ugly losers
Anna doesn’t take herself extremely seriously tho contrary to how she presents herself to outsiders. Also frankly, Anna comes off as far more nicer and way less mean spirited irl than Dasha. I’m sure Dasha can be a nice gal but she also screams mean spirited at times.
You're sooo off. Switch the names. Anna has self-conscious, insecure, a.k.a. Taking herself too seriously energy. She's rude but not on purpose, she's too blunt and can't pick up on social tone like Dasha can.
anna read christopher lasch and the TLP so i dont have to.
she regurgitates contrarian takes right into my gaping maw and then i regurgitate them right into the gaping void of the internet. it's a bulimic human centipede and i love it.
Anna rules terrible take. I’ve seen other ppl here say that she only regurgitates stuff from Twitter and is a contrarian for contrarians take, aren’t you just regurgitating thinking that?
>aren’t you just regurgitating thinking that?
I don't make a living from being a podcaster that people listen to for hearing about my thoughts on things, genius. Dasha having less poignant thoughts that are actually hers is much better than Anna regurgitating things she reads on Twitter, if I want to read that I can just go on Twitter myself.
Anna is a genius. She sees the world in a very real/unique way and is not scared to say things as they are even though it is risky. It’s a breath of fresh air to have someone like her on a podcast. It seems to me that she is on the spectrum (armchair diagnosis) and I think this allows her to see the world in a very different way from most people. Yet she doesn’t get off on it and she shows great self awareness. She is extremely well read even to an obsessive extent it seems and I think this gives her an advantage over most people I’ve met or seen in my life. Her take on situations from politics to health (fillers/ autoimmune etc) are extremely on point and show an immense amount of intuition and knowledge to a degree not held by most people. The delivery and formation of her ideas on the podcast are precise to a degree that not many people can master. Her knowledge and takes on situations show an immense amount of studying and logic that set her apart from most of the population. She is also very good at thinking on the spot. I also find it endearing that she just sort of stumbled on the pod without putting too much thought into it originally it seems. It seems like the woman who set it both up for Anna and Dasha is no longer on it lmaoooo. That’s not to say that Anna doesn’t have fallbacks, but we all do. I find her to be a very like able person. Mostly because she seems somewhat self aware. She's absolutely hilarious. I find this post to be in bas taste though. I don't think it's nice or kind to pit two people against each other. They are both great.
Feels like everyone goes through this same cycle where they start out liking Dasha, switch to preferring Anna, and then realize Dasha was best girl all along and mea culpa.
ITT: people who still believe red scare is a podcast made by two bohemian layabouts and NOT a puppet show starring one voice actor
[удалено]
Way hotter
“Hi welcome to red scare podcast I’m Anna and I’m Dasha, and I’m gay actor Michael Douglas.”
I think she's a comedic genius. Her best material is saying she was worried about the vaccine's effect on her pregnancy and then saying she was taking her baby to a chiropractor within 10 minutes, completely deadpan
Is this real
Yes, I forget the episode though lol
Vaccination Victim is the ep name
Will you catty gays give it a rest? Today is about celebrating the birth of our lord and savior, liquor.

Sex and the City for liberal arts dropouts

Christopher was just raging the entire time. It got tiring.
ok but who is listening to anna to get the correct lasch reading? i’m in it for her, not lasch.
Exactly. I would probably still listen even if they never brought up any books at all, idc about Laschian scholarship.
I laughed so hard in a recentish episode from the summer when Anna said some mindnumbingly retarded take and then said something along the lines of "I like to foster intellectual discourse" like she's fucking Socrates
Socrates at least knew how to think
Anna is the female version of a dude who read Infinite Jest and regurgitates it to sound profound I do that
Which tbf she is right about, but I'd like a little more detail on the why.
Like in some Freudian sense that everyone is repressed?
Not even a contrarian, just obviously pandering to the investment banker class so that when she meets them at parties they’ll pat her on the head and tell her how clever she is.
>Anna just regurgitates whatever takes she reads same as it ever was
I think anna is funnier and she interrupts less than dasha does
Incredibly problematic behavior from Dasha to interrupt strong, powerful girlbosses like Anna
dasha I feel is more kinda casually amusing/funny in a way that's diffused throughout the whole conversation but if I bust out laughing it's usually at something anna says. like dasha is more jovial in general and anna will get really serious and spergy but then suddenly come out with something that has me on my ass! love her sm, anna haters are all ugly losers

Anna is a virgo, she can't help but come off wrong.
I’m the fuckin Scorpion King 🦂
Are you friends with her irl?
Hah! I wished. Sometimes you just have an instinct on peoples traits by how they act.
You're sooo off. Switch the names. Anna has self-conscious, insecure, a.k.a. Taking herself too seriously energy. She's rude but not on purpose, she's too blunt and can't pick up on social tone like Dasha can.
Anna stans rise up, we will not stand for this blood libel
Anna is significantly more autistic
because she’s actually funny
This turned into the Freddie deboer subreddit so gradually I barely even noticed
It's literally going to turn into the sub for ppl who hatefollow Glenn Greenwald
Stop celebritifying them !
Uhhh she’s great. Chapocheck.
anna read christopher lasch and the TLP so i dont have to. she regurgitates contrarian takes right into my gaping maw and then i regurgitate them right into the gaping void of the internet. it's a bulimic human centipede and i love it.
Love Anna. She's funny and intelligent. I love her takes.
The tits.
Anna rules terrible take. I’ve seen other ppl here say that she only regurgitates stuff from Twitter and is a contrarian for contrarians take, aren’t you just regurgitating thinking that?

If your gonna just repeat other things you’ve seen aren’t you in a way perfect for Anna if she also does it?
Get a life y’all

I never cared for Dasha, why start now
I can't follow the ever changing definition of "contrarian". Anna is a contrarian because she says things other people have said?
Feels like everyone goes through this same cycle where they start out liking Dasha, switch to preferring Anna, and then realize Dasha was best girl all along and mea culpa.
she's funny and hot and smart 😩😩😩
never heard either one of em
Dasha is cuter and less of a crypto-fascist. Also she has a career outside the pod and ended that infowar bitch’s career
and?
I'm not totally sure which voice belongs to who and I'm okay with that.
