I'd be curious what Chicago suburb she grew up in, actually. I grew up in the northern burbs and it absolutely does not surprise me that someone like her comes from there, that place was filled with smooth brained rich kids.

Also gently caress Alex Jones for editorializing the article midread without saying poo poo about it. For some reason that annoys me more than when he just reads the headline and makes poo poo up entirely about what the article says.

It's kind of convenient when someone outs themselves as just a complete piece of poo poo. Means I don't even have to pretend to care about their opinions.

AND MY SONG IS...
I have my doubts that all 4 (?) times he's gotten covid have been real. Hard to not have doubts with just about anything Alex says. I feel like he would be incentivized to pretend to have gotten it so he can do the whole "I got it and it wasn't even bad" thing and act big and strong and sell supplements.

I mean I'm sure he's had covid just 4 times with minimal noticeable impact to his health or schedule is hard for me to believe for some reason.

I don't know. He says it almost killed his dad, and I feel like he admitted he felt really sick. Didn't he have on the, I'm going to say it was The Health Ranger (:rolleyes:) or someone similar, not that long ago. And they were reminiscing about their covid experience and were 'Yeah, that was actually pretty bad'.

I recently caught up to where I started with the fallout from the 1.5 billion dollar judgement, and given I jumped in around episode #480 or something after that (the 2020 election run up), I decided to just go back to the start. I don't know that I'll listen to it all through now, but I figure I'll listen to at least a little around the start, and certainly more than the first 3 episodes I listened to back when I first picked up this podcast before jumping to what sounded interesting. Man it's wild hearing Dan lay out that he wants to make a few things clear, that he doesn't want Alex removed from the air or censored when measured against where things are now etc. Simpler times :smith:

Yeah, and then they went back to denying it. I sometimes think they forget they're on camera and actually drop the charade every now and again.

I don't think their hearts are in this anymore. Between the lengthy (and lengthening) show introductions to the frequent diversions into things not related to AJ in the middle of the show (This week it was Survivor talk which I admit is about as boring to me as any subject can possibly get), to the gradual shortening of shows in addition to all the filler, I think they need to admit to themselves that they need to move on. Even when they stay on topic, it almost all feels like retreading old ground, which isn't their fault so much as AJ's lack of creativity.

I think they need to either commit to a new subject, or a different kind of podcast altogether. I worry if they don't do it soon, people are going to stop listening and they'll have trouble recovering even if they do pivot. I feel like I'm on the verge of moving on, myself. I find myself skipping over almost half of the show time these days.

Controversial, but I liked the Tucker episodes. Keeping an eye (ear?) on these poo poo heads with someone going in depth on exposing their lies and bullshit will keep me listening. Jones though? Yeah the well is getting dry. He's gonna rehash the same ten or twenty lines of hate speech for 99% of his shows. Cover the latest events, point out the lie he's using today, then move on.

I think KF as it is right now is fine, but also I doubt anyone would mind if they cut their workload a little and made the podcast more of weekly check-in/highlights reel instead of trying to find material for 2-3 episodes each week.

Yeah the issue is that Alex isn't interesting anymore, he's going through the motions more than JorDan are but yeah I'm borderline on the show. I would have them pivot fully to the past or to Tucker and Russel Brand and other semi interesting right wing media shitbags or go full QAA and talk about right wing conspiracy weirdos

That's really great to hear! She was having some very rough times publically on Twitter just a few weeks ago. I was worried about her safety.

I’m listening to this Pearl interview and I guess being dumb is her brand* but come on girl, have some self respect.

Did God give her hubris where intelligence should be? If I was this empty headed, I wouldn’t make myself a public figure.

*I don’t think it’s just a brand

No, I really don't think its a brand, she's genuinely that incompetent.

Someone on the KF subreddit posted a youtube of a guy going through her videos and a big part of it is just how unbelievably bad of a youtuber she is. Not just bad opinions...we know that, the technical stuff is grade-school levels bad.

Stuff like packing 15+ guests on an awkward couch and they're all trying to talk over one another. Her laptop covering her whiteboard with all her dumb opinions. Her mic levels being terrible. The awful camera angles.

It watches like a parody of a right wing podcast made by a moron who doesn't know how a camera or microphone work.

EDIT: It speaks leagues about her parents (who are multi millionaires) who are supporting this stuff by buying expensive office space and equipment for her. If I were them, I'd be a little concerned about the awful stuff she's spouting and how it reflects on them but they make fancy gas pumps or something and aren't really in the spotlight (yet.) so I guess it doesn't matter? Its just nice that one of their 8 kids (!?) has a hobby.

Pearl is a good podcast interviewer in the same way Wyatt Koch is a good fashion designer.

Someone earlier was asking about good episodes for a first time listener and I feel like the Pearl one is decent for that purpose, given her deer-in-headlights approach to Alex.

They did start off by spending a solid few minutes explaining that she's a right wing poo poo posting attention harvester. They may not have conveyed how amazingly stupid she is in its full breadth and depth, but I thought they pretty well covered her being one more person plugged in to the right wing outrage manufacturing machine.

She's using the Andrew Tate school of algorithm-chasing. The actual long-form content she's making is irrelevant, because what matters is 15-second TikTok videos of her talking into a microphone about traditional femininity layered on top of footage of Subway Surfer while lo-fi music plays in the background.

"Attention harvester" is a rather apt way of putting it, but wouldn't that make her not much different from a spammer? She might be yelling inflammatory things about abortion rights instead of advertisements, but the practical purpose behind it is the same motive as a junkmailer.
