I like how Behind the Bastards has to bleep out Hello Fresh all of the time when Robert talks about how they hunt children on an island.

Make whatever claims you want against Raytheon but you had better not piss off Hello Fresh.

Huh. For some reason I always thought they were talking about the Blue Apron island

I've spent some time trying to decode it and the best I've got is that it's gotta be 3 syllables, but I can't tell the stress pattern.

You could probably check it in Praat somehow if you're a prosody wizard, but it'd be hard. They do a decent job on the beeps. Or I just continue to suck at sounds, idk, I do dead languages for a reason.

It’s blue apron, like it’s 99 percent confirmed blue apron. They didn’t even bleep it on the livestream show a few months back, though they also missed a bleep on last weeks episode I think?

Listening to Alex claim to be the leader of the spiritual infowarrior army or whatever in todays episode, I’m reminded of that time Alex had a chance to grab a bullhorn and lead his followers into glorious battle against the globalists and… begged them all to settle down, leave the Capitol and reassemble peacefully in the parking lot.

I'm listening to the CPAC episode (hilarious) and Alex really is at his weakest and least certain when dealing with even more right-wing elements.

Like at some level all he wants to do is sell supplements and these crazy fucks wanna burn down the world.

How did the Nick Fuentes thing shake out anyway? I remember Dan saying in 2019 that he posed a serious threat to Alex's userbase.

The cat boy thing took a toll on his rep and there's been infighting/general issues at his org recently, including one of the lower tier members getting arrested for threatening a mass shooting.

I spotted him at the Laura Loomer congressional failure party, so maybe he's over his virulent anti semitism. Altoigh she did just allegedly convert to evangelical Christianity, so who knows.

Andrew is in his 20s and still thinks this is an effective tactic to expose bad people. This has been repeatedly stressed by KF: Do not interview this rear end in a top hat he’ll make you look like an idiot for trying and he sells more food buckets. Andrew explained in his Hot Ones interview how he just likes to let people like this hang themselves and he stays quiet. Like I said he’s in his 20s and naive. I’ll cut him some slack but please bro don’t do this anymore.

Did you see the whole interview? It's great.

It's got people on Alex's staff trying to get him to chill out, Andrew letting him burn himself, not monetizable from any position Alex doesn't already have... Curious if you'd agree after seeing it. I'm nearly 40 and have mad respect for Andrew for being one of the best journalists out there. He's also touched fringes most people wouldn't bother or be willing to. His unironed shirt bit is an explicit gimmick to make him seem naive like you seem to take him.

He got Alex to expose his business mind a little too. Alex seemed to be an impervious interviewee until Andrew moved a bit away from the trial stuff.

Also good to remember it was Alex's first interview after the trial and not everyone is as tuned into him as others.

It's worth it if you like all his other work. Plenty of exclusive docos. I wouldn't bother subscribing just for the AJ interview, there's no real new ground for KF listeners but it's a good vid for the uninitiated.

A lot of it is just Alex telling on himself seeing as he can never say Infowars is doing worse, so he admits that deplatforming didn't do much damage, that he gets a lot of money from direct donations. It's just Andrew giving him enough rope to hang himself with.

So I just got to episode 245 and the announcement of the Knowledge Fight Database. Considering I've never heard of it before and I've been listening since around episode 400 I'm guessing that project didn't quite get off the ground. I was curious to check it out!

Yeah, no. This was one of their Patreon goals and Dan was talking about it as something he could do instead of writing a book that would be a useful resource for dealing with various right wing/conspiracy issues without having to direct people to a (then) 250 episode podcast that averages 2-3 hours each.

Mopsy, I'm starting to question your medical credentials.

I've been going back and listening (re-listening?) to some old eps to try and fill in the gaps in the backlog that I never got to, since I did a terrible job of tracking how far I got in listening from the beginning. Very weird to get to episode #200 after listening to today's episode, only to hear JorDan talking about squatch heroes. This must be what Dan feels like when he accidentally does witchcraft.
