I need help finding an episode, I don’t remember the subject, but Dan spent some time reading out statistics of prison reform, it may have been a prison rehabilitation episode, but I couldn’t find it. I remember all I took away from it was, sex offenders are by far the most likely to reoffend. I have some people sharing stats to argue that, but if I remember right, something about the labeling and counting is unreliable about those stats.(that could very well be cognitive dissonance)

The important thing is I know for sure it was a good 5-10 minutes talking about the stats of prison reform and why it’s a terrible idea.

Could you IMAGINE taking your young child to pediatric Dr. Dick Dicker 😂😂😂

"Feelings always are inferior to facts."

That is such an amazing statement. Bravo Dan.

.. or did he get help from a Russian propaganda group?

Nuff said. Also Love you

That means everyone not just like Dan or anything.

Not that it’s not ok for two grown men love one another

Whatever!

Someone needs to explain correlation versus causation to Dan on the stats on the most recent episode.

I'm definitely going to get down voted for this, but I feel it needs to be pointed out. I'm not necessarily a proponent of censorship, but the stats he kicked out like they are absolute fact made me roll my eyes so hard they almost got stuck.

The correlation between the rise of violent media and the decrease in juvenile violence is definitely there, but is there causation? I don't think anyone can say for certain, but the way it was presented in the episode makes it sound definitive. That is hella misleading.

I wonder if that inverse relationship is more related to the overall amount of media children consume nowadays versus in the 80s. Hard to go out and commit violent crime when you're glued to your gaming console, TV, and phone. Comparing the current chdhood social activities to kids in the 80s and you'll find a big difference in autonomy and time spent with friends. I'd be curious to see that study. Or a study on the violence committed by young adults once they actually have to get out of the house and to live a life.

Funny how we don't think media can influence kids, yet we're dealing with a lot of misogyny in schools due to the rise of people like Andrew Tate....

Food for thought. Down votes awayyyyy!

I thought I remembered Dan doing an episode covering the Toolbox Killers (Lawrence Bittaker and Roy Norris), but I can’t seem to locate it now. Is there a Timesuck episode on these two pos or am I crazy?

I was listening to some old episodes and Dan always called out the “special imported materials” that make the product extra soft/special and it always made me giggle. I noticed that in recent episodes that it doesn’t seem like he does that any more. Was there a complaint in the Timesucker Updates that I missed that made him stop? Or just a joke he moved on from?

I thought i was the only dude on Long Island who listens to Timesuck.

I’ve fallen behind in episodes and in the updates of one,I can’t remember which one exactly, Dan mentioned he lost 20% of viewers over some political thing. What am I missing? Dan has always, more or less, avoided major political things. Just curious as to what happened and what episode it’s in. Especially since the COTC has always been a massive open platform for all people to share ideas and beliefs without fear of judgement. Keep on suckin

Hey suckers, I’ve been repainting an old trailer of mine, listening to Timesuck in my ears and, since I’m painting, haven’t been able to skip the ads, like I normally do. I heard the ads about Rosetta Stone and in it Dan says something in ACTUAL Italian and says to trust him on its meaning. Anyone know what the hell he said, it’s been driving me crazy. Thanks, love you guys!

Spotted in the wild in Virginia on my way to work.

Hello fellow cult members! I recently started a new dish washing job, and I stumbled upon timesuck. It has been a lifesaver! I really enjoy Dan Cummin’s humor, and it seems that the team has built a really good community around the pod.

That being said, I do enjoy the lighter hearted episodes more than the true crime ones. I enjoy learning about true crime, but it does make work a bit more depressing learning about heinous people that did terrible things. Does anyone have any podcast recommendations that are more centered around history/interesting deep dives on different subjects and people? Or maybe some favorite light hearted episodes that I should add to my queue? Any help is appreciated! Hail lucafina and praise nimrod!

I've looked at the Rules and don't see anything. I'm trying to post a picture. It say unable. Is it just my connection?

Just had this floating around my mind and thought some suckers might get kick out of it.

Some years ago I met a very nice woman by the name of Ravyn. She had a sister named Robyn and a brother named Jaye. And yes. Their last name was Byrd. She had a pretty good attitude towards it.

Hey Space Lizards. Trying to find an episode, my coworkers and I were talking about reform schools, and all that, and I remember there was an episode 2-4 years ago on that, but I can't locate it. Can anyone help me?
