YES! I nearly made a thread today and thankfully someone did it for me!

I was introduced to the podcast via BtB and their Alex Jones episodes, and I really dig it! I’ve always had an intense distaste for Jones for a solid decade now, and having Dan and Jordan articulate much better than I can as to why, is real nice.

InfoWars stickers are always kinda littered everywhere on Long Island so as a teen, I looked it up and was introduced to unbridled insanity. In a way I’m grateful for that introducing me to conspiracy skepticism during a time I became much more politically aware and active.

I also really love KF as they also spotlight Jones’ narcissistic behavior and personality. As someone who has dealt with someone who most likely has NPD personally, having more people exposed to it helps those who have been affected by said person. While obviously I cannot say for sure if Jones has NPD, there are so many behaviors that are basically palette swaps of what I’ve been through.

Jordan’s distanced laugh howl is my essence.

Daria’s deposition was far more chilling than Alex’s as Alex we all kind of have a baseline of lunacy that we expect, even in a formal setting like this.

Daria seems so hellbent on mind games to justify truly abhorrent behavior professionally and personally. We all know that what she is saying and doing is terrible, but the audacity of trying to posit that she is the normal and positive one is what disgusts me. She is a good example of the banality of evil.

Alex’s flamboyancy with his beliefs and behaviors clear red flags to most that “ok this guy is a kook, engage appropriately.” Daria appears as any ordinary person in any ordinary job, and her moral disengagement is cooly automatic and far more disquieting. There are only so many Alexs on the world but far more Darias than we know of.

Weirdly off topic, but kinda? Idk: is there a KF or BtB type show for Joe Rogan?

Outside of KF/BtB, the only other podcast I know of that's focused on a particular rear end in a top hat is Tuckered Out, which is a Tucker Carlson deep dive podcast (obvs). I don't really listen to it very often though, because I can't stand listening to Carlson for more than a few seconds at a time

Hearing Carlson speak makes me feel like my insides are liquifying

I wish Billy Wayne Davis would be back on Behind the Bastards. He and Robert have such good chemistry and his response to the topics are always amazing.

I remember him talking about how chuds would see him open for Tyler Childers and Sturgill Simpson but they would be pissed about his liberal jokes. He said that they apparently did not realize what Simpson and Childers talked about in their songs.

I love BWDs voice, and I say this as unashamed yank trash. Dude could read me the phone book and I’m swoonin’

There are a lot of layers as to why this 7 year old post was brought to my attention, so I won't try to explain... But, in case you're somehow still searching, it's "Orchestra Strings 21" from an early Apple Jam Pack (an expansion for GarageBand, Logic and other DAWs.) Based on what I remember from back then, I suspect that the entire string section in that Jam Pack may have come from a bespoke library (or maybe just a less widely distributed library) previous to Apple purchasing the rights to it.

In case people are wondering why Dan's bright spot was the 2009 Nicolas Cage film Knowing, it's because he and Jordan are actually guesting on the next episode of my podcast! I co-host Travolta/Cage, a biweekly podcast going through the filmographies of John Travolta and Nicolas Cage in chronological order, alongside writer and former AV Club head writer Nathan Rabin. So if you want to hear them go easy on Knowing and hear us tear apart Oliver Stone's vulgar, messy Savages, keep your earholes peeled about two weeks from now!

Holy poo poo! I didn’t know Rabin cohosted and hellooooo new subscription! there better be an episode on wild at heart

Depends on your threshold. I find anything related to the decision to be pretty upsetting but Alex himself is pretty subdued, relatively speaking. Just sort of "the culture of LIFE is winning, the death cult is DYING" bullshit. He did have a couple callers I wanted to throttle, though.

I actually found Joe Brown's anti-trans riffs harder to stomach. Only had a passing familiarity with him--never got into court shows--but truly, what a garbage human.

Ooooh thank you for the heads up on the latter. It’s the dehumanization that’s gets me.

Realistically, I know there was never a chance of Dan appearing as an expert witness, but I love the idea of Reynal trying to start an embarrassing line of character assassination questions with a self deprecating Chicago comedian.

he’s had a long time week or two with inconsistency re: medication.

I had a similar situation earlier this summer, as long as he’s taken care of, safe and sound, it’s ok. It’s fine and you’re able to handle it ok for a few days but it catches up tenfold.
