They are inadmissible in court due to the way they can be interpreted differently by different polygraph people.

Also Ed was in the Navy and some accident caused damage to his voicebox or something so thats why is voice is that way.

Yes. Along with "Hypnotists".

Basically all a polygraph can do is measure if you're nervous and if you experience different physical reactions (supposedly involuntary but that's debatable) with different questions. Obviously if you're hooked up to a machine and being interrogated you're going to be nervous.

Just look at how many people on the show may have "failed" the first question about their name (Fred, Benjy, Shuli, etc.). A polygraph would categorize that as a lie but it was just confusion about what to answer because the subject's real name is not what people call them.

I always cringe a little when people call it a lie detector.

Yeah, they're bullshit. A great scene in "The Wire" tells it like it is where the polygraph administrator comes out and tells the cops, "if you want him to fail, I can say he failed; if you want him to pass, I can say he passed."

Hey now.

Does anyone know the first time they addressed “let’s gently caress some whores”? Like around what date? I’ve got most of that era on mp3 but marksfriggin was no help last time I searched.

Those Ronnie clips are from the first three or four weeks of them being on Sirius iirc. I listened to 2006 last year and was surprised how early they played it. Doug Goodstein was involved somehow on the recording, I think it was some early HowardTV bullshit.

That segment is an absolute treasure. If you for ever one second doubted any of Howard's stories about his mother, that voice mail is proof of everything and shows how severe and permanent the damage is that she inflicted on him.

So did we, but then people went about their lives. Did you sit in rapt attention for the rest of the day? Because I saw people at the grocery store, the mall by where I lived had a full parking lot. Bars and restaurants were packed with people talking and expressing their feelings or just drowning fear in food and alcohol. The world didn’t shut down.
