I mean, we really should have guessed this back when he stumbled down the rabbit hole of defining the difference between... was it Draculas, Renfields, and gremlin-wraiths or something like that? I just recall him getting completely lost in specifically categorizing his enemies into his own little RPG-like caste system where it was explicitly clear that he wasn't using it as some metaphor to describe their personalities.

The moderator completely losing his poo poo had me laughing so hard.

So did Jordan screaming over Alex's 4 minute "Let me just add some context then I'll stop talking..." tangent with a whole lot of "WHY ARE THEY LETTING HIM TALK?!? SOMEBODY STOP THIS!!!" as if Jordan was at the debate table while everyone calmly indulges Alex's drunk rambling.

It always makes me lol when Alex reads a headline and instantly says THIS IS JUST LIKE THE MATRIX or one of the like three other movies he’s ever seen. Just zero intellectual curiosity.

It must be nice to believe in predictive programming and think watching blockbuster movies counts as doing serious research about the world around you.

I started listening to Coast to Coast AM in the 90's when I was a teenager, so I was completely underwhelmed by his cosmology. Always have been. AJ has basically made a role playing universe out of the late 90s/ early 2000s movies Frailty, Fallen,The Arrival, Constantine, End of Days, The Devil's Advocate, plus whatever sci-fi books he read as a child before getting his first concussion, and some Boomer New Age bullshit he probably picked up from his parents when they were in a 'phase'.

edit:

Alex Jones is living inside Beyond the Black Rainbow. gently caress, now I all I can think about are weird fiction horror movies that would blow Alex's mind.

Honestly, today's episode was an all-timer. Space weirdos, aliens, naked begging for money, not ever getting to covering the Iowa caucus despite telling his audience he was going to like five times, the works. Classic Alex.

Yeah. Loose change was easy to dismiss as just like “oh that’s just some weird poo poo they’re into”. But when they got more into how mainstream movies were all promoting “quarantine and kill” narratives that was worse.

On 26 May 2000, he was made a Knight Bachelor "for services to literature" at a ceremony in Colombo.[14][b][50] The award of a knighthood had been announced in the 1998 New Year Honours list,[13][51] but investiture with the award had been delayed, at Clarke's request, because of an accusation by the tabloid the Sunday Mirror of paying boys for sex.[52][53] The charge was subsequently found to be baseless by the Sri Lankan police.[54][55] According to The Daily Telegraph, the Mirror subsequently published an apology, and Clarke chose not to sue for defamation.[56] The Independent reported that a similar story was not published, allegedly because Clarke was a friend of newspaper tycoon Rupert Murdoch.[57] Clarke himself said, "I take an extremely dim view of people mucking about with boys", and Rupert Murdoch promised him the reporters responsible would never work in Fleet Street again.[58] Clarke was then duly knighted"

You step into the throne room, where you witness hundreds and hundreds of dark elves in a circle performing a satanic dance. They turn and start hissing at you. "Nyeeeeh, nyeeeeh, you will never get our precious Orb of Gartak, because we hate your freedoms and your prospeeeerity! What we love is transgenderism, Klaus Schwab and open booorders!" As they speak you see them putting children in tubes, your children, and, and, and, and this is confirmed, this is all over the mainstream news. They ADMIT that they put hundreds of thousands of children in tubes, hundreds of thousands in every state, every day, and... you don't want to know what they're doing to these children, folks. It's bad. I won't go into it, but just imagine the worst thing they could do to children, and it's worse than that. (Ten second pause.) Now I have a question for you: Will you retreat like the cowards the elites think you are, or will you FIGHT? WILL YOU STAND UP TO DEFEND EVERYTHING THAT IS GOOD AND BEAUTIFUL AND PURE?

No they are consistently a new batch of headlines I assume just whatever the crews pulled from zero hedge that day plus any mainstream headlines he can yell about.
