CDawgVA Responds to Trash Taste Backlash

CDawgVA addresses the criticism that emerged following his invitation of political Twitch streamer, Hasan, on Trash Taste podcast.

On February 21, 2025, the CDawg’s Trash Taste podcast invited political Twitch streamer Hasan as a guest. This move quickly ignited criticism from individuals who hold differing political views to his own.

Immediately, fans rushed to comment sections expressing their opinions, a large number of them criticizing the podcast for inviting him as a guest.

“Well, they definitely have trash taste in guests,” one user commented.

CDawgVA has addressed the recent criticism, disclosing that it’s “probably” unlikely for Hasan to appear on their podcast in the future.

CDawgVA addresses Trash Taste backlash

He mentioned during the live broadcast that dealing with certain situations like this can often lead to drama. Sometimes, it’s more beneficial not to address them at all and let them pass on their own. This is primarily because when emotions run high, no matter what you say in that moment, people may remain unconvinced or unhappy about the situation.

Adding fuel to an already burning fire, we personally avoid delving into politics because it’s a complex and confusing issue. Since none of us reside in the United States, it seems unnecessary to introduce political topics on our podcast. I believe this decision is reasonable.

[The conversation] escalated into a display of political one-upmanship… I believe it was inappropriate for us, in a way, to implicitly encourage such behavior.
