Each episode, Dan and Jordan take a look at some clips from that day's Alex Jones Show and struggle to make sense of what they find.
#240: March 30-31, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan check in to see what they can learn about what Alex Jones was up to back in 2009. In this installment, the gents find Alex really mad that Obama planned to visit Queen Elizabeth, really mad that he has to let an old man tell limericks on his show to pay the bills, and really mad about Arnold Schwarzenegger.
01:31:1917/12/2018
#239: December 12-13, 2018
Today, Dan and Jordan check in on Alex Jones' present day show to see how he's responding to troubling storm clouds gathering around his Hero President Trump. It turns out he's descended into into a fantasy world where "Patriots" are talking over the world and the "Globalists" are fighting back with polio. Also, Alex has one of the most severe meltdowns in recent memory because Gavin McInness won't play ball with his attempt to give him a pep talk.
01:56:0714/12/2018
#238: Coach Dave
Today, Dan and Jordan introduce another possible Wacky Wednesday candidate, suggested by Policy Wonk Ian. This episode covers a man named Coach Dave, someone who may or may not be a coach, but definitely hosts a surreal extremist Christian radio show. Unfortunately, a little exploration reveals that there's a lot more than religion going on in his broadcasts.
02:07:5612/12/2018
#237: March 27, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan pick up their exploration of Alex Jones' career back in 2009, and find Alex taking a stand and changing his position about Glenn Beck. He also spends about a third of his show talking to a "doctor," and supporting medical advice that will seriously hurt his audience.
01:26:2310/12/2018
#236: December 4-5, 2018
Today, Dan and Jordan dig into a couple of present day episodes of The Alex Jones Show to see what he's up to, and what he thinks about all the news about his friends probably doing crimes. It turns out he doesn't talk much about that stuff, but he does spend a lot of time starting a very bizarre crusade against people who are younger than him.
02:12:3807/12/2018
#234: March 26, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss an episode from 2009 where they find Alex Jones wiggling his way out of his lies about the "Mandatory Service Bill," and welcoming the president of the John Birch Society onto the show for a very interesting interview.
01:28:5103/12/2018
#233: November 28, 2018
Today, Dan and Jordan check in to see what Alex Jones is up to in the present day. If you don't have time to listen to this episode, it's mostly about Alex reporting on a meme that Donald Trump retweeted. Really hard-hitting stuff.
01:52:1930/11/2018
#232: Reverend Manning
Today, Dan and Jordan explore the positions of one of Alex Jones' guests, Reverend James David Manning. What they find is a horrifying melange of insanity, historical ignorance, and very offensive homophobia. Please be advised, some of the stuff he says is very hard to hear.
01:37:3828/11/2018
#231: March 24, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan get back to their normal show by chatting about the March 24, 2009 episode of The Alex Jones Show. The gents find Alex completely freaking out (and fake crying) about his made up Mandatory Service Bill, and breaking some bad news about a past guest with a really funny name.
01:16:4226/11/2018
#230E: Obama Deception, Part 5
Today, Dan and Jordan finish up their look at Alex Jones' 2009 "documentary" The Obama Deception, and are lucky to make it out with their sanity mostly intact.
02:15:1523/11/2018
#230D: Obama Deception, Part 4
Today, Dan and Jordan enter the home stretch, episode 4 of their coverage of Alex Jones' 2009 "documentary" The Obama Deception. In this installment, we pick up on a cliff-hanger and learn about how insane Ron Paul's brother is, then learn a little bit about Ron's career in the House of Representatives. It's not all Paul family stuff this episode though, there's also some historical revisionism and more made-up quotes.
02:16:2322/11/2018
#230C: Obama Deception, Part 3
Today, Dan and Jordan enter Part 3 of their coverage of Alex Jones' 2009 "documentary" The Obama Deception. In this installment, we see Alex completely blow it with list-making, misrepresent some history, and make a few decent points for the completely wrong reasons.
01:58:4221/11/2018
#230B: Obama Deception, Part 2
Today, Dan and Jordan continue their look at Alex Jones' 2009 "documentary" The Obama Deception. In this installment, we meet another hip-hop legend, watch Alex reuse tons of footage from Endgame, and discuss whether or not the Federal Reserve is really private.
01:58:2220/11/2018
#230A: Obama Deception, Part 1
Today, Dan and Jordan begin an adventure of breaking down Alex Jones' 2009 "documentary" The Obama Deception. In this installment, we get the lay of the land, meet some of the main players in the documentary, and find so many problems that this episode only covers the first 12 minutes of the film.
02:16:4619/11/2018
#229: Mars Germans and Moon Leases
Today, Dan and Jordan take a break from talking about Alex Jones to check in with the wacky world of Project Camelot, to learn about some high class Space Weirdos. On this installment, the gents meet two men who claim to have spent 20 years each working in space. Their stories are interesting, but their revelations about space laws are game changers.
01:32:1114/11/2018
#228: Old Alex Clips
Dan is in the middle of preparing the research for the forthcoming Obama Deception documentary coverage, so he needs a real novelty to really get his mind into the show today. Thus, he decides to tell Jordan about some old clips he found of Alex Jones from his public access days in the Clinton era. What the gents end up finding there is at times charming, and at times deeply troubling.
01:11:0512/11/2018
#227: March 23, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan continue examining Alex Jones' path through 2009. He's been completely obsessed with dishonestly portraying "the patriots" as being under attack from all sides, and this episode is nothing if not a continuation of that trend. Also, apparently G.I. Joe is "Globalist propaganda."
01:16:4709/11/2018
#226: November 7, 2018
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss how Alex Jones and Co. are dealing with the results of the 2018 midterm elections. In a shocking turn of events, Ted Nugent accurately assesses that his worldview is unpopular, Alex desperately tries to move product, and Roger Stone swings for the white nationalist fences.
01:19:4808/11/2018
#225: November 2, 2018
Today, Dan is under the weather, so he cannot handle doing the modern day episode he had prepared to tell Jordan about. Instead, he picks a few of the most important clips from that show and explains to Jordan how Alex Jones has officially abandoned one of his most deeply held principles in the name of supporting Trump's horrific xenophobia.
29:4805/11/2018
#224: March 20, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss the March 20th, 2009 episode of The Alex Jones Show. On this episode, the gents learn about an attempted martial law takeover of Schenectady, an attempt at outlawing you from having a garden, an attempt to force the population into serving the Department of Defense, and of course, how Alex is wrong about everything.
01:50:3102/11/2018
#223: A Progressive Space Diplomat
Today, Dan and Jordan take a break from talking about Alex Jones to take a much needed Project Camelot break. On this episode, the gents discuss a difficult interview that Sweary Kerry did with a guy who liberated Mars back in the 1970's. Also, Dan found an album Kerry recorded a few years back, and Jordan thinks it slaps.
02:01:3831/10/2018
#222: March 15-19, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan go into the past to see what Alex Jones was up to back in 2009. On this installment, the gents discuss how truth can't really penetrate propaganda, and find an unexpected but ultimately predictable entry point for Alex Jones into the Tea Party.
01:50:5229/10/2018
#221: October 24, 2018
Today, Dan and Jordan follow up on the last episode and discuss how Alex Jones' narrative about all of his enemies receiving bombs has evolved, and not in a positive way. It's now a false flag the Democrats are doing to themselves, so the gents discuss how dangerous an idea this is, and how troubling it is that so much of the right wing media is on board with him about it.
01:48:4026/10/2018
#220: October 23, 2018
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss the Oct. 23, 2018 episode of the Alex Jones Show. The night before, Alex was out at Trump's very troubling rally in Houston and elsewhere in the country, someone left a bomb in George Soros' mailbox. How would all of this affect Alex's broadcast the next day?
01:27:0224/10/2018
#219: March 13, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss the March 13, 2009 episode of The Alex Jones Show, where they see hints of what is to come for Alex as the Tea Party rises, and hints of how he came to his distorted view of reality. Also, more importantly, Chuck Norris shows up on the show and provides Alex with an interview that is the definition of "sour grapes."
01:32:5922/10/2018
#218: October 17, 2018
Today, Dan and Jordan check in on what's going on in the present day with the Alex Jones Show. Turns out the show's not going so well, as Alex spends most of his show rambling about how great a new right-wing meme is, before coming up with about seven clunky nicknames for Beto O'Rourke.
01:27:0819/10/2018
#217: Space Liars and Dragon Moths
Today, Dan and Jordan take a mid-week break from talking about Alex Jones to discuss an episode of Project Camelot where Sweary Kerry recounts her ninth interview with "definitely not a murderer" Mark Richards. Learn about new alien races, solar observatories, and how collaborative confidence scams work.
02:36:4017/10/2018
#216: November 11, 2010
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss the Nov. 11, 2010 episode of The Alex Jones Show. On the nights of Nov. 9-10, 2010, Glenn Beck aired a deeply antisemitic two-part "expose" about how George Soros is the "puppet master" pulling the strings of the secret government machine. The gents got to thinking that maybe Alex's response to those broadcasts might tell them a little something. It turns out, it just might speak volumes.
01:18:3415/10/2018
#215: March 11-12, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss the March 11th and 12th, 2009 episodes of The Alex Jones Show. These are an epic couple days in Occupied Texas, as Alex finally gets around to releasing The Obama Deception (or does he?). As if that wasn't enough, he spends a lot of time explaining how he owns "his women," then receives a mysterious classified document that will become a huge part of his mythology moving forward.
02:16:4612/10/2018
#214: Cruel Parallels
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss some curious thematic similarities between the broadcasts Alex Jones did during the Kavanaugh confirmation vote and during the 2016 election. While both were ostensibly about a major political event, each was really about celebrating cruelty and spouting closed-minded nonsense.
01:30:0810/10/2018
#213: October 2, 2018
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss the Oct. 2, 2018 episode of The Alex Jones Show. The gents expected to find Alex running a desperate defense for the Supreme Court nomination of Bret Kavanaugh, but they could not have imagined how insane and idiotic Alex's defense would be.
02:45:1604/10/2018
#212: Matrix Schemes and Billions In Liens
Today, Dan is still slightly on the mend from being sick, so he and Jordan put off getting back into Alex Jones by taking a little Wednesday Project Camelot break. On this installment, Sweary Kerry interviews a woman who claims that she owns the rights to The Matrix and Terminator franchises. Tune in to learn whether or not that is true, and whether or not she's also psychic (spoiler alert: she is).
01:49:3003/10/2018
#211: March 10, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss the March 10, 2009 episode of The Alex Jones Show. On this episode, Alex is really, really trying to make his audience excited about the upcoming release of the Obama Deception. Alex also lies a bunch about Canada, and responds surprisingly well to a caller who wants to deny the Holocaust on air.
02:13:1428/09/2018
#210: March 9, 2009
Today, Dan tells Jordan all about how, on March 9, 2009, Alex Jones decided to take a break from spreading fear about the "Globalists" trying to unleash a bioweapon in order to give his review of the Watchmen movie and to give his support to an abusive cult.
01:26:4526/09/2018
#209: Drunk Hotel Interview
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss a recent interview Alex Jones recently engaged in that is, quite frankly, tragic. Between his rambling pronouncements that everyone is to blame for his position in life but himself, his implications that he is waiting for death, his willingness to endanger his family, and his legitimately deranged answers to a word-association game, this glimpse into Alex's mental state walks a razor's edge between hilarious and profoundly sad.
03:02:0724/09/2018
#208: March 6-8, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss the March 6-8, 2009 episodes of the Alex Jones Show. Alex is coming off the big reveal of his bogus Avian Flu narrative, and that absolutely continues. In these episodes, Alex seems preoccupied with really bad examples of gun people who have been arrested, as well as a deeply over-simplified take on a profoundly tragic piece of American history.
01:21:1021/09/2018
#207: Bus Station Photography and The Magic of Zoom
Today, Dan and Jordan take their Wednesday break from talking about Alex Jones to break down a new interview from Project Camelot where Sweary Kerry talks to a guy who claims he has photographed cities on the moon. Also, the gents wrestle with some massive Eddie Page related news and fantasy book the next chapter in his story.
01:42:4319/09/2018
#206: March 4-5, 2009
Today, Dan tells Jordan about a couple days back in 2009 and all the nonsense Alex Jones had to say back then. The gents discuss the sudden arrival of Alex talking about George Soros, and the suspicious circumstances surrounding that. Also, Alex lies a whole bunch about a bioweapon outbreak, and Dan explains exactly where he's getting his information from. Hint: it's not "the mainstream news."
01:55:1817/09/2018
#205: September 13, 2018
Today, Dan and Jordan check in on what Alex Jones is up to in the present day and find both very expected and very surprising things. On the very expected side, Alex gets super bigoted, then spends a disproportionate amount of his show talking about how he should be more cocky about how good his body is. On the more surprising end, Alex Jones announces that he just sold out his audience to what is embarrassingly probably the highest bidder.
02:15:4414/09/2018
#204: Sweary Kerry's Larry
Today, Dan and Jordan take their Wednesday Alex Jones break to discuss an episode of Project Camelot where Kerry sits down again with the Racist Pleiadian himself, Eddie Page. This time around, the gents learn about how Eddie has read some books about Ancient Aliens, and trace some troubling connections between Camelot and InfoWars narratives.
01:38:3512/09/2018
#203: March 2-4, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan return to their investigation of what Alex Jones was up to in 2009, as the Tea Party began to become ascendant in right wing politics. On this installment, the gents examine the week after the Nationwide Chicago Tea Parties and see if Alex has noticed it yet. Along the way, they learn what sort of people Alex thinks are "legitimate tax researchers."
01:35:3310/09/2018
#202: September 4-6, 2018
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss the incredibly chaotic couple of days that Alex Jones has lived through. He thought he was going to DC to have some fun, he ended up getting kicked off Twitter, and Dan and Jordan end up arguing about journalism.
02:41:0907/09/2018
#201: A New Messiah and The Plunger Toss
Today, Dan and Jordan discuss an episode of Project Camelot where Sweary Kerry interviews a guy who claims to have worked for the Department of Defense in a top secret capacity, but seems to want to talk more about his very interesting career in show business.
01:30:0205/09/2018
#200: Feb. 25-March 1, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan finally get to the public unveiling of the Tea Party and see what Alex Jones was up to while that was happening. Also, Dan talks a whole lot about the rap music he likes and Jordan does some impressions.
02:46:4303/09/2018
#199: August 29, 2018
Today, Dan tells Jordan all about the August 29, 2018 episode of The Alex Jones Show. Mostly, Alex is in a bad head space and is getting super esoteric, but that doesn't stop him from proving his critics correct when they accuse him of being anti-LGBT.
02:11:2131/08/2018
#198: July 22, 2011
Today, Dan tells Jordan about how Sonja from Sweden requested they talk about a specific day from history. The gents wrestle with one of the worst terrorists probably ever, and make sense of why life is worth living even though he is allowed to live.
03:10:4527/08/2018
#197: Jared Holt from the Sh!tpost Podcast
Today, Dan and Jordan bring you a little bonus episode where they sit down and have a little chat with Jared Holt from the Sh!tpost Podcast. Jared is a compatriot in the realm of studying right wing propaganda, and it was a real treat having the chance to compare some notes.
01:05:5023/08/2018
#196: August 21, 2018
Today, Dan stays in the present day to tell Jordan about the August 21 episode of The Alex Jones Show. The gents don't like being in the present, so there must be something big that led them to do two 2018 episodes in a row. There is something big, namely Alex basically confessing to a huge crime on air.
01:45:4622/08/2018
#195: August 17, 2018
Today, Dan tells Jordan all about the August 17, 2018 episode of The Alex Jones Show. Alex is in a weird place with his being kicked off so many social media platforms, and in response, it appears that he's beginning to show little signs of his old self coming back. Unfortunately, he's also showing signs of his present self getting worse, and possibly stupider.
01:42:4520/08/2018
#194: February 22-24, 2009
Today, Dan and Jordan go back to the past to see what Alex Jones was up to right before the public unveiling of the Tea Party. In doing so, the gents end up uncovering numerous racist narratives, and a gigantic lie about Hurricane Katrina.
02:00:5317/08/2018
