Falwell bludgeoning the pool boy to death with a pin
Isaac Jones
Gospel music actually slaps, ice cold take here. This song sucked but there are some bangers
Matt Lavallee
this is the second episode this year to wind up with the Louvin Brothers (excellent choice)
Dan
Imagining Falwell Jr. crying in front of Daniel Plainview in his bowling alley.
Jonathan McCarver
See you in Nashville and New Orleans. Maybe if I'm lucky i can throw up on bourbon street with the boys.

there really are 5 types of place names in america: - native indian loan word - name of an english guy - place where a french guy went and said a weird word and it stuck ("detroit", "la grange", "des moines", etc) - name of a european city, possibly with "new" in front - Lynchburg, Racismtown, Whitesville, Freesboro
Evan Scott
there are ten places called lynchburg in the US, including one in California

my god I went back to listen to ep 349 and the next premium 351 is the Eyes Wide Shut review with Nick Mullen. Cab we bring this kind of fire eps back?
mass man gets mad because joke is about him

“9/11 wasn’t nearly as traumatizing as the marathon bombing” ~ Every guy from the Brighton, Alston, Fenway area.
etienne
but 9/11 was NYC's Boston Bombing. we all know that.
justDave
Will, this your father, there was no mother, just one day I was pregnant with you so obviously I chickened out, anyway we should get together and compare peniss sometime. love and kisses -your dad
Nolan
Operation* the last time anyone mentioned it was literally the same night the guy got caught in the boat , but Will has this fantasy behavior he applies to people from the state that hosts the baseball team he doesn’t like. It’s one of the only times the pod has been willfully disingenuous. That’s all.
Nolan
I live in Mass and literally the last time anybody brought up the marathon intelligence opp.
Nolan
Mentally challenged New York audience*
Nolan
A guy who is usually right on the vast majority of his takes because they’re well researched and reviewed was wrong when he stated on an episode of Chapo Trap House that people from Boston pretended like the marathon bombing was on the same scale as 9/11. This never happened and only served the purpose of scoring literary points with his new yoeks
Blake Patraw
"was born in lynchburg on fathers day..." does the author realize that father's day isn't a set date lmao
Blake Patraw
what
ProboscisMan
The outro songs are always thematically appropriate, but got damn does this evangelical music suck shit. Couldn’t be a better fit for American Protestantism, A+ as always, Chris.
Nolan
You can’t be right 100% of the time or so the “rubes” say.
Nolan
Man this show doesn’t miss, legitimately one of the only times I can remember is known New York cunt Will Menaker pretending that people from Boston equated the marathon bombing to 9/11. What a total a total New York delusion to have.
