It's funny how obviously giddy John is for the entire carrier fleet to get utterly annihilated by Iranian or Chinese rockets/drones. But you know, same

I haven’t listened to the episode yet does he actually say that verbatim ??



Because I posted exactly that like a month ago on one of his tweets and only like two people ever read it and now it’s being referenced on my favorite podcast lmao

Guess this is where I e-peak



he does, but they're tweets (including from randygdub) not from cspam

he is a good guest but i thought on this ep he was making a lot of confident predictions for someone who got the invasion wrong

they rarely challenge their guests
see: The Igbo Supremacy Power Hour where you learn that Muslim Nigerians are worthless government mooches who breed too much

at least on this most recent episode when the guest was going on toward the end about how (relatively) easily russia could withstand all the sanctions mark asked what a worst case scenario might be

drat that was some high octane interviewing

a coup to get hersh and a coup to get hersh to talk about how he found and validated some of his sources

and a coup to have hersh poo poo on bellingcat! you know mark and john got a huge kick out of that

dude's earned his right to be a little cranky many times over

i was just going through some of his osama + syria interviews and found his first response to chris cuomo here hilarious ("thanks for coming on" hersh: "okay") https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpzNgN5Jssc

Haven't heard the interview yet, but I remember Ames being taken aback when Hersh made a small but complimentary remark about him in his memoir, so for me thats an additional payoff.

that's how mark scored the interview as told in the ep
