Pervert World Ft. Jules Suzdaltsev
You asked for it, we listened. We returned to this topic to talk about the emotional, moral, and possible financial crimes of the Krassenstein brothers (as well as why we think they are awful cretins) with noted internet guy Jules Suzdaltsev. There is a very controversial and heated debate with Brian Krassenstein on our Patreon. Find out why Elon himself got so defensive about this episode on our Patreon at www.Patreon.com/WesternKabuki. Beware, it's a little awkward.
In the meantime, please follow Jules at @jules_su on Twitter.
Thanks for listening! We need your support now more than ever. Feel free to join us on our various socials at www.linktr.ee/WesternKabuki
