Jesus. Even going by audio, I can tell Alex is just messy drunk in his current era. He's constantly stopping to gather his thoughts and stifle his drunk hiccurps.

I can tell some of it comes from his Dallas accent on top of trying to throw on that froggy Rush Limbaugh thing he does.

The parts of Alex's testimony that would have made me lose my temper and start screaming in his face were his pauses following each question.

Mark: Mr. Jones are you aware your birthday is this date?

*35 second pause*

Alex: Well, I know that I was given cake and presents on that day a few times but I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Mark: Thank you, Mr. Jones.

Stone does look unhinged, but gently caress me, Clayman basically set up the worst deposition I've ever heard of.

I worked in a German and then an Austrian restaurant here in the States, and Jaegerschnitzel is very well-known among average folk because it's "the one with gravy on it."

I kind of appreciate the Tucker episodes because the nature of Tucker's commentary allows Dave to tackle a less scatterbrained version of Alex's ideology and speech. The biggest downside is listening to Tucker's weird, scoldy, infantalizing speaking style.

These episodes show why we occasionally need to have Jordan screaming over the audio.

The old episodes where Alex does his Gingrich impersonation are so jarring.

Edit: Also lol at listening to FO episodes again and Dan worrying about praising Mark Bankston, citing Beto as a reason.

On top of the obvious, I hate Alex's trick of setting his volume level way higher than his guests so that he can more easily interrupt them. It blows my ears out every time he does it.

When Alex runs into that problem, his instinct tends to be to shout over who he's talking to, or to apply some kind of social pressure to maintain some kind of boundary or tone. This lunatic just kept powering through Alex's bad jokes, fake laughs, interruptions, and offers to couch his language more.

I can also recommend Smut Up and Listen, with the obvious warning that it's really NSFW.

It's mainly having to see someone fellate him while repeating his canned lines like "I don't even remember you saying anything about Sandy Hook" that make episodes like this exhausting for me.

I'm always unreasonably annoyed by lawyers with lovely mics that they feel they have to shout into. Like, splurge for a mid-shelf USB mic at BB, it'll pay for itself in time.

Jordan's babbling is him trying to think out loud, and I kind of let my mind wander when he's doing it. However, I kind of need him to scream and shout and groan over clips. Otherwise, the show would just be listening to right-wing conspiracy bullshit and would be unlistenable to me.

Also crossover interest that if anybody missed it, Dave Anthony did a fun guest spot with QAnon Anonymous where they walked him through the Getty Museum QAnon conspiracies. And it was basically the same thing with a fresh mind getting exposed to the bunker network of trafficked mole children hidden beneath the museum while the hosts had heard way crazier poo poo for years.

The Cavortex episode is one of my favorites.

Lying about military service is very prevalent with those types of people. Wayne Simmons was grifting the military, Fox News, and defense contractors for like 15 years before he got outed

Everything is bad. The things that are terrible are so obvious. Jordan is the only realistic voice. Keep screaming. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

I keep saying this. I don't need quiet reverence for discourse when Alex is repeating the same hideous garbage. I need someone to scream because I'm in public.

If this isn't allowed, I'll stop the updates, but Bankston is seeking sanctions for Spiro's conduct:

And the office he works for is now suing NewsMax, Crowder, Shroyer, Tim Pool, and others for misidentifying another mass shooter:

Wait, how does he feel about bright, colorful drinks that are full of sweet, delicious flavor. Possibly served with a novelty glowing ice cube or adorable tiny umbrella? I could see him turning those down because they're too "girly" for a BIG, STRONG MAN like him. But then again, booze is booze...

I get the feeling that Alex absolutely drinks down super sweet mixed drinks when he's not pounding straight vodka. He seems like he would love margaritas at the least.

I listen to a podcast where women review smut books, and the idea of painful erections is a recurring idea in the books they read.
