Philosophers In Space - Hazbin Hotel and Critiquing Universalism

Once again, I want to open with "I'm sorry" for all of this. If you're considering condemning us to content creator hell for our takes, first consider the question: What Would Charlie Do? Charlie would say, despite our worst takes, we are still redeemable!

Please don't hate us!
