I didn't know whether Daria was just responding with bad faith cynicism. She sounded like she was a child. She might also be just not quite there?

I concur with the posters who're saying that Jones sounds like he can't distinguish between fiction and reality anymore. To constantly shift between conflicting narratives and talk about one reality while living in another will wear down any mind, especially if it's also saddled with stress and drugs. I doubt that he himself understand what concepts such as truth, lies, research, and so on mean.

A bunch of the BtB-cohosts have ended up on my playlist: Jake hannrahan, Jamie Loftus, knowledge fight themselves.... Also about time Paul F Tompkins came back. I want to listen to the Golden Retriever man (he voiced Mr. Peanut butter in Bojack horseman and I can't see anything else when I hear the voice)!

I was thinking for years that it must have been some Alex Jones satanism meme before they brought up the cat. Im guessing the cat just hangs around on Dan's desk a lot and thereby turns it into an altar?

Hey I just listened to the episode where Jordan took the wheel. Really liked it! Just the altered dynamic between the two during the role reversal was nice also.

Journalism has been hallowed out for quite some time, and the last decade has been even worse. In the early teens, facebook lied to everyone and said that video engagement was far above any text engagement. It wasn't. It actually lagged behind quite a bit, but facebook likes to lie about things like this. As a result, so many places dropped all of their actual journalists in a pivot to video. Then a few years later, facebook revealed their lie. Instead of rebuilding the text force that had been previously let go, media outlets collectively just fired their video people and became pr regurgitating machines because no one there is paid well enough or has the chops to actually give a give.

See, e.g. Adam Schefter.

If I have my internet history right, the pivot to video gave us a legion of cool podcasters when all these journos were let off. So maybe there would have never been a behind the bastards, knowledge fight, and what not without that Facebook lie. In conclusion it's impossible to say whether mark Zuckerberg is good or bad

It's 2022. By now, plenty of people will be born having no understanding of WW2, Nazi Germany, or the Holocaust, and for who these are just abstract backdrops for flashbacks in Marvel movies. There will absolutely be an attempt to use Ye to destigmatize Nazi thinking.

At the moment, whenever I hear Alex Jones, I imagine him as Dr. Robotnik/Eggman. Just imagine how much more interesting the games would be if you chased the DeathEgg while Robotnik was droning on about demons and sodomites

I loved those Alex Jones cover songs and remixes. Unfortunately, I think like Dan alluded too, I eventually figured out that they did generate a whole bunch of positive attention for Infowars, including people singing those songs unironically. That soured me a bit on the concept.

Have the Alex Jones victims managed to get any of the money out of Jones yet?
