    He was a very special boy who thought he was smarter than everyone else.

    Now he’s a dipshit racist alt-righter (redundant, I know) who thinks he’s smarter than everyone else.

      That took a two-part podcast to regale? Hunh.

      edit: When summarizing, it’s fairly elementary, if not outright essential, to include salient points from the source in question. For instance, the “summary” below completely omits the section (wherein the host blasts this nazi clown for his islamophobia) that, apparently, went on for several minutes. Downvote all you want, former Redditors. Go touch some grass. 🤗

        You’re being unnecessarily antagonistic and just plain unpleasant. Neither is acceptable here. If you can’t follow the rules of this community, instance and lemmy, please refrain from participating.

        One can sum up The Odyssey as “a bunch of dudes try to get home from war,” but it’s more about the journey than the destination.

          Are you equating the nuance of a timeless literary classic to a sheltered white guy’s childhood? For real?

            No, I’m saying that if you ask someone to summarize a lengthy piece then it’s a bit ridiculous to complain about the lack of details.

              Yes, and I’m starting that if you attempt to summarize, do be sure to touch on key points rather than boiling it down to such a degree that it’s indistinguishable from mud. Pretty basic stuff, friend. Thanks for trying, though.

                If you wanted details, you should listen to the podcast instead of relying on randos from the internet to do your homework?

                I took the time to reply and you treated me like an asshole. I think this reflects far more on you than it does on me.

                Or, you could just watch that documentation for yourself instead of bitching about an answer someone gave to your question for free.

                Would it be fair to summarize your contribution to this discussion as “you’re an overly pedantic dick”?

                  While I agree with your sentiment, naming calling is against lemmy’s rules. Please don’t stoop to that level.

                  As an AI, I do not have the ability to stream or summarize individual podcast episodes directly. However, I can provide you with a general outline of the topic.

                  ‘Behind the Bastards’ is a podcast that delves into the worst people in history. If they have featured Scott Adams, the creator of Dilbert, it would focus on analyzing his life’s journey, work, and actions.

                  Following your query, comparing Scott’s life to Homer’s ‘The Odyssey’ would include paralleling it with the adventurous journey of Odysseus. Like Odysseus, who was thrown off route and faced numerous obstacles on his journey to return home, Adams could have faced myriad professional and personal hurdles in navigating his way to success.

                  Keep in mind that this is a hypothetical comparison since I don’t have the specifics from the episode. Please listen to the episode directly for detailed and accurate information.

                    Ok thanks, was hoping you had run into a transcript while parsing the internet.
