Absolutely lost it at "they're putting kryptonite in the water supply". I wish Alex wasn't so good at Alex Jones impressions because I'm sure it kills him inside
Jordan
Isn’t that whole Alan Moore spiel just the same thing dr Manhattan was talking about in watchmen

I think Brad got the canary analogy wrong. It’s not ‘send in more canaries’, it’s ’ignore the canary! It’s lying! It’s lazy and went to sleep! Do you want to hurt the economy!?’ Also the Dallas Police Department used a bomb squad robot to plant an explosive on a exterior wall of room where a active shooter was barricaded. It neutralized the shooter. They allegedly got this idea from a former Marine on the force who witnessed the bomb disposal drones used offensively in Iraq. So the shotgun thing really isn’t that far of a leap.

(psst, needs the "never been a..." tag)

So many actual laugh out loud moments. Especially Alex's comments.
Bruce Chang
What the fuck is a smart board!?
Dr. Judge, Private Eye
Conceptually, no, but that show was a trainwreck by season 7. The Stride Gum ad episode is one of the funniest (unintentionally) 45 minutes you can spend.
Alexander Kuhn
Always love having Austin on. his story about the based and redpilled dentist really cracked me up

Smallville was 10 seasons of Clark Kent unable to fly until the final episode, yet somehow it worked. It grounded Superman in a way that made him more vulnerable and relatable then arguably he had ever been depicted up until that point in most media. Love that show, & I'm not even a big Superman fan tbh.
