The sub r/redlettermedia over on Reddit is a good place to start. Also, there is a RLM thread over the resetera forum where you can find many RLM "fans" in willful denial.
back when i wa a boomer and still used facebook we had a pretty large fb group of RLM fans. in fact there were quite a few groups. some of the fans were oaky some of them were terrible.

I’ve said it before, but Josh would be fine if he didn’t get tardtastic at the worst times.

He takes himself, and the material, too seriously. That’s cool in Re:View, that sucks in BOTW. It might be nice to hear a factoid here and there when there’s something overly bizarre (like Turtle Dreams), but when he cops an attitude because nobody wants to write a Wikipedia article with him, or he shoots down a good joke/bit…no.

I could ignore his social media shittery, and even dumb stuff like the shirts he’s worn a couple times, but the other stuff, not so much.
 
The best way I can sum up my opinion on Jack Packard is that he's the best of the tier of people I don't think I could ever be friends with. Like, if I were hanging out with them on a Wheel of the Worst episode, I feel like I could crack an off-color joke and it'd be fine with Mike, Rich, Jay, Tim, Colin, and Mac. Jack might remember it, and call me out if ever I started getting shit on social media. He's still watchable enough to where he doesn't ruin episodes he's on, I just wouldn't be comfortable with him around.

Josh Beardfat would instantly whip out his phone and throw me under the bus.

The worst thing about Josh and why I love Jack is that Josh doesn't let jokes rest. He has to insert himself for clout and it's just noise over the joke. Jack shuts the fuck up and lets other people enjoy the spotlight.

Mike explains what a newborn baby’s fontanelle is. Confirmed for Daddy?
It'm going to theorize Mike knows what a fontanelle is because he's a fan of Barenaked Ladies and 'When You Dream', the final song of their album Stunt that one of the members wrote for his newborn son at the time, has the following passage:

His fontanelle pulses with lives that he's lived
With memories he'll learn to ignore
And when it is closed, he already knows
He's forgotten all he knew before


It's also pretty common knowledge

It also shows up in Way of the Gun as an insult, as in "Fontanelle, a fuckin baby head fuck? You like to fuck baby heads?"

Oh, for the days when Sarah Silverman was still fuckable and not a shrill cunt.
