What a Creep
Season 23, Episode 5
Ye/Varg Vikernes/Burzum

Kanye West “Ye” is a one-person horrible public relations machine. If it’s not his ego, the misogyny, the bad music, and/or public ranting--you can always count on him to praise people like Adolph Hitler. In this episode, we talk about his latest stunt that sent shockwaves wherein he wore a t-shirt for a Norwegian death metal band (Burzum), showing he hasn’t learned anything since the last time he acted up.
