April 2, 2018’s The Alex Jones Show features Andy from Kansas—his first call—debunking David Hogg’s CBS interview as proof of "crisis actor" claims while falsely linking him to depopulation conspiracy theories. Jones also misrepresents Pope Francis’ hell denial, rants about DMT-induced "spirit guides," and mocks "America First." The hosts dissect these clips in a bracket-style critique: his swearing at Adam Schiff ("Fill your hand") vs. liberal impressions, Roger Stone’s bizarre Rick Derringer interview, and Larry Nichols’ baseless "witch church" accusations against Hillary Clinton. Dan and Jordan’s analysis reveals Jones’ relentless, unfounded conspiracy-mongering, cementing his role as a master of performative outrage over substance. [Automatically generated summary]

alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Thanks for holding.
unidentified		Hello, Alex.
		I'm a first-time caller.
		I'm a huge fan.
		I love your work.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I love you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Hey, everybody.
		Welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
		I'm Dan.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I'm Jordan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We're a couple of dudes like to sit around, drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Indeed, we are, Dan.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Dan?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Buh.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Dan.
unidentified		Buh.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Buh.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		What's up?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Is there a hook to this?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I know a lot about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't know anything about Alex Jones, and clearly you don't know a lot about bringing the heat.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'm emotionally deflated because I opened the door today, and Jordan had brought over White Claw Hard Seltzer.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We did the hard seltzer before.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I thought it is a wonderful mix of our novelty beverage slash alcoholic beverage desires.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know, dude.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		This is a dangerous game for Chaboy to be engaged in.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Is it the most dangerous game?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, that's hunting humans.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, okay.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But it's dangerous, man.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The Seltzer game is a real, real dangerous thing for me.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I know.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You're a wine cooler fella from way back.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		From way back.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		From way back.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		You could catch me on the streets drinking Tequiza.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You could catch me out there with the Bartles and James.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You know, I used to fuck with Zima.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, you do a little bit of that Spamani, Martini and Rasti, Raza, whatever that is.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I always thought, like, oh, what?
		This whole Smearnoff icing people, that whole phenomenon.
		I'm like, why is this a punishment?
		I love this delicious elixir.
		That last part's not true.
		No.
		But yeah, so anyway, here we are.
		We're doing another episode.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
unidentified		Wow.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Coming out the gate.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Coming out the gate with energy, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You know what?
		I'm just in a position where I'm still a little bit rough from our long recording last night.
		Right, right, right, right.
		And long editing session afterwards.
		And so, like, I'm going to get there.
		I'm going to get there.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But for now, like, immediately.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You're going to raise your game as we go along.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Immediately, I've got like a little bit of, I've got some rust in the gears.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		When the performance adrenaline starts to kick in, you'll be there.
		See, that's where I, like, today, my brain was fucking murdering me.
		Like, I am dying on the inside, but during the show, man, I got it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm a performer, my friend.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm a professional, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		All right, let's test your professionalism.
		Please don't.
		So today we're going to be talking a little bit about the April 2nd, 2018 episode of Alex's show, and then we'll have some fun afterwards.
unidentified		Okay.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		But I don't like the way you put that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, the April 1st show, everyone was suspecting, like, there was some talk on the Facebook group about what's his April Fool's joke going to be.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And it turns out it's he made a best of episode and played it on the first.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So we don't have to talk about that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's hilarious.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But his Monday episode here on April 2nd ends up being really interesting on a couple levels and then really boring for the rest of it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I'm going to start off testing your professionalism with an out-of-context drop from that episode.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		What is he?
		A fag?
		Because he knows how to read?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Ooh, boy.
unidentified		Ah, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Your professionalism out the window.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Was he being sarcastic or like trying to do that as a provocateur-ish kind of thing?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, no, no.
		It's like what he perceived people treating him when he was younger because he was a jock and he wasn't supposed to read things.
		So he was sort of saying it in the voice of the people who picked up him.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But still.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Which is really just his own voice yelling into his brain.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That I understand it recognized.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So on this episode, Alex does a lot of talking about how cell phones are going to kill you.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
unidentified		Yep.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So he has a lot of that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's doing a lot of talking about everything but all of the shit that's coming down on him as hard as possible.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		More or less.
		And then he gets into this.
		He starts talking about the Parkland survivors and David Hogg in particular.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Of course.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Because anytime you can yell at a kid, you just got to do it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, in the past, Alex has had a really awful but sort of defensible position.
		And like, hey, everyone's saying that I said he was a crisis actor.
		I didn't.
		I just implied it very heavily.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		And agreed with people who did say it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And so this is where things take a little bit of a turn.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		If somebody says David Hogg is a crisis actor and you're like, yeah, totally, that is saying that David Hogg is a crisis actor.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Or I would say, like, if I were to say to you, what does a crisis actor mean?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And then you define the term and then me take that definition and apply it to someone without ever using the word.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I kind of think that you're saying that that's a crisis.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm pretty sure that's exactly what you're saying.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		But this is where on this April 2nd show, things take a little bit of a turn, and Alex's narrative pivots a bit about David Hogg.
		And this is truly disgraceful.
unidentified		Okay.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		But the video, and I found a bunch of these this weekend, and I saw these last week.
		We had an article about it, headline, David Hogg caught lying about what happened at the shooting.
		And I went and watched them this weekend.
		Not just the little clips, but the longer interviews they were part of.
		And so it's just out of context.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's not out of context.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Where he says, I was at home when the shooting happened, so I got on my bike and rode to the school to get as many interviews as I could.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		We'll play it in a moment.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He does.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a first.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		And then he's in all these other interviews saying, I was at the school in the class when the shooting started, and I was with the teacher, so we heard the shots, we closed the door.
		And then other things where he talked about where he was when the shooting started, so he got in the closet, and they conduct interviews in the closet.
		And I'm like, there's no way you're three miles away, and then you're there, and there's the shooting, so you're in class.
		When the shooting starts, you close the door.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So this is a real big problem.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't know what's going on.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so there's a video that's been making the rounds on the alt-right world and the Alex Jonesian world, and particularly on RedState.com.
		So, of course, it's trustworthy.
		This news about an interview with David Hogg from CBS, a CBS piece that they put together where he says that he got on his bike from his house and went to the school to shoot interviews.
		Okay.
unidentified		Now...
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Is this...
		But how is it...
		No, no, no.
		That's not possible in any direction.
		There's no way that if the school shooting were happening and he heard about it, then it couldn't be happening during the shooting itself.
		There was no, I mean, okay, okay.
		I got to figure that.
		You got to tell me more about this.
		This is infuriating.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's very simple.
		He was talking about the evening.
		He was talking about later.
unidentified		Gotcha.
unidentified		All right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Perfect.
		Perfect.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Alex is pretending that he's talking about like, I was at home and then I went to the school.
		He's talking about after he had already gone home after the shooting, he left his house at 6 p.m.
		It's very clear.
		The timeline is incredibly consistent throughout all of the interviews that he's given.
		There's an interview here.
		At 6 p.m. after the shooting, I took my camera, got on my bike.
		I rode in basic twilight, and I ride my bike three miles down winding sidewalks and find my way to the school, as I've done in previous years.
		All the way, I was making sure my camera bag didn't rip open because if you zip it a certain way, the camera falls out and it would be destroyed.
		I start shooting B-roll, and I see Fox News over there.
		I knew I wanted to talk on the news and make sure there was advocacy, especially with so many people from the NRA and different gun-toting Americans who watch Fox News.
		I went on the day of the shooting and said, quote, there cannot be another mass shooting.
		And I think that's partially why.
		But also, other people started saying that at the same time.
		I'm looking at the school right now.
		You can see bullet holes in the windows.
		It's insane.
		And the fact that there's more bullet holes in those windows than bills that have been proposed and passed to save these kids' lives is disgusting.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a good line.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right.
		He was at the school when the shooting happened.
		And Alex is taking the CBS thing completely out of context where he's not saying that during the day he got on his bike, it was that evening.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, this is a really big problem.
		Because now, if Alex is pushing this narrative, he has to think that he is completely fake and planted and realized, oh, shit, I'm supposed to be at work faking being a victim of a crime today.
		And that's why he got on his bike and went to school.
		And this is a real, real serious problem.
		And if Alex continues down this road, he will be very, very deeply into the crisis actor bundle or whatever.
		Interestingly.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I mean, to what extent does that even fucking matter?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It doesn't.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I mean, even if this were the case, it's unfortunate.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Look, even if Alex's narrative and these fucking alt-right assholes is 100% correct, then the school shooting still fucking happened.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, some people say it didn't.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Well, see, but that's the larger, that's the larger context there is it's unfortunate if he is saying that he was there whenever he wasn't, but people were there.
		Who gives a shit?
		He's right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Interesting.
		I don't know how I would address that, but I would say that redstate.com, they retracted their story and said, quote, I am sorry for the error and have updated the post accordingly.
		It appears that the problem was that CBS included a very confusing quote without context.
		Hmm.
		Not really.
		You guys just don't care to find the context.
		You just want to act.
		So anyway, that's super fun.
		And here's where Alex goes with it.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I mean, we had an article.
		I mentioned it, but I'd already been banned off YouTube or had videos blocked.
		Misrepresenting what I'd said when I just pointed out there was a stand down.
		The students told us that that we had on plus local news.
		So they misrepresented what I said and then took the videos down.
		And now I realize why they were so scared.
		They didn't want anybody actually looking at what went on.
		So here's the deal.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They didn't want you looking at it.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		David Hogg.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't care.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		He's a public figure now.
		And he's called me cuss word names and a con artist and a fraud.
		He's in a man's world.
		I haven't done all that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yes, you have.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Many times.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		And then it came out over the weekend.
		We guys reprinted that article.
		Thanks.
		Paul Joseph Watson found his Reddit.
		And it is David Hogg's Reddit.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's not.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It might be.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Could be.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		And he's there talking about how it's good that mosquitoes are killing millions of people because we need billions to die for depopulation.
		And see, that's just the perfect globalist leftist religion.
		That's Bill and Melinda Gates.
		That's the UN.
		That's this whole program.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So he takes this, these two pieces of information that are both either completely misrepresented or not true.
		Like the CBS thing with the, he drove his bike to the school.
		There's inconsistencies in his story is just not true.
		Right.
		The Reddit thing that might be his account, I don't know.
		It's a joke.
		And that's being willfully misrepresented.
		He combines the two of them to be like, of course, he wants depopulation.
		I imagine that these globalists that I'm against, they also want depopulation.
		He's the perfect person for them to have groomed beforehand.
		And it's not good.
		That's very bad.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's awful.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's crisis actory.
unidentified		It is.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's exactly what he's doing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Again, I'm the only person legitimately calling for white genocide.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He should attack you.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, exactly.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, also on this episode, he gets mad because the Pope, there's an article about him that said that there wasn't hell, that hell doesn't exist, which you could take from the scriptures.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		If you were going to go with a biblical reading of the scripture, then yes.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He is correct.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So the Pope allegedly gave an interview to a guy named Eugenio Scalfari.
		And he said, quote, they are not punished.
		Those who repent obtain God's forgiveness and take their place among the ranks of those who contemplate him.
		But those who do not repent and cannot be forgiven disappear.
		A hell doesn't exist.
		The disappearance of sinning souls exists.
		So that's the quote that Alex gets fucking hot and bothered about.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		But I don't think anybody hates the Bible more than Christians.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But hold on, man.
		The Vatican denies that this interview even took place.
		There's no recording of it.
		The guy is notorious for not taking notes.
		He's a 93-year-old journalist.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Wait, what?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He's a 93-year-old dude.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And according to The Guardian, this Eugenio Scalfari is, quote, said to pride himself on not taking notes or recording high-profile interviews.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Right, right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a weird thing to take pride in.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So the Vatican says he prides himself on no one knowing if anything he says is true.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right.
		It's like Michael Wolfe.
		Yeah.
		The Vatican said that the comments were, quote, the fruit of Scalfari's reconstruction and not a faithful transcription of the Holy Father's words.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So did he even.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So that kind of suggests that he did do the interview, though, right?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, probably, but they wouldn't want to confirm that or deny it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		But what they just said was he did do the interview and he's creating that whole cloth.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So the Vatican did confirm that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The Vatican plays games, bro.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a very good point.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a very good point.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But the point is that the Vatican is denying that he said these things and that it's not accurate to their beliefs or Pope Francis' beliefs.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That does not stop Alex from screaming about how he's the devil for about an hour.
unidentified		Of course.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Which leads him into talking about how the elites love to do DMT and speak to little beings that they find on the other side.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Now that makes sense.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Finally, somebody bringing some rationality to this story.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		They do DMT.
		They talk to little beings?
		They take DMT in ayahuasca, and in their hallucinations, they get programming and instructions from the other world entities that are running globalism.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So wait, now that.
unidentified		Whoa.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		This is a new wrinkle for me.
		Somewhat.
		So the globalists aren't even the bad guys.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, no.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's the little beings that they contact on the other side.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, they're the ones who are coming up with the sort of game plan of the globalists.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Well, then why hasn't Alex been railing against these guys from the beginning?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know, man.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Did he just discover them?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, the issue is, like, you're stupid because that is true.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Alex pretends he's super good friends with Joe Rogan, and he is literally the biggest DMT proponent in pop culture.
unidentified		It's good stuff.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He hosted a documentary about it called The Spirit Molecule.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You know, he's like, he's a big advocate of hallucinogens.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You know, who ran the B-roll on that documentary?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Who's that?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Tiny Little Beings from the Other World.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Probably.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So anyway, Alex says this, and it's really funny about DMT stuff.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		People think of an alien invasion as in the third dimension from space.
		There's dimensions below and above us.
		The mathematics show it.
		And whether it's real or not, you have these spirit guides, Mescalito and all this, little goat man.
		You're taking DMT and a little goat man shows up.
		He's not your buddy, okay?
		And he's got a plan, though.
		You're going to be a god as long as you kill everybody.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Okay, Alex.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so I do like it wait The sentence, whether it's real or not, you do have spirit guides.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't know what that even means.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, it's that the mathematics proves it.
		Whether you believe it or not, whether it's real or not.
		I don't know what you're saying.
		But I do love the sentence.
		If the little goat man comes up to you, he is not your friend.
		I do like that.
		Okay.
		Okay, Alex.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Cool.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I mean, he's a pan.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Is that what's going on?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, he's like a satyr.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's a satyr.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Mr. Tumnis.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What's your favorite lower dimension?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I like, I don't know, man.
unidentified		All right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		All right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You've got to work on your two-man game.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't – I can't think – Oh, Kenny Rogers in the first edition.
		Wait, that's not a dimension.
		not really a dimension i thought it was gonna as i started saying the name of the band i thought it was gonna end in dimension but it's addition Look, man, I'm rough.
		All right, all right, all right, right.
		Anyway.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Give me a higher dimension.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Give me a higher goat man.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		There you go.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now we're in it.
		So that's it for the second.
		It's a pretty boring show, otherwise, except for the warnings about Goatman, Alex lying about the Pope, and Alex launching off on what will become a potentially slanderous narrative about David Hawk.
		Because if he goes too far down that road, it will turn into like, you're committing libel.
		Right.
		We'll see.
		We'll see.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's already being sued for that as well, right?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I think he's being sued by another guy, too, now.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		Man, give us a call, dude.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, you – no, no, no, no.
		The guy who's suing him, I think I read something about him.
		He was one of the guys from something or whatever.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I saw an article about the guy who Alex mischaracterized as the shooter.
unidentified		Yes.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		In a Daniels article that was on InfoWars is suing Alex.
		I don't think that that's going to work.
		I think it's absolutely a...
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It will if you take the stand, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, because I wouldn't testify against him.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Because that's not a crime.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We've got to subpoena you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He just did bad reporting.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The press is protected, assuming they're using good faith.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Which he's not.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But you can't prove that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't think we can.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That wouldn't fly in court.
		The ability to be like, to say, oh, he intentionally did bad work.
		It's the same thing.
		It's the reason why slander laws are very difficult.
		It's very difficult to prove intent in terms of slander because you want to err on the side of, oh, someone made an honest mistake and we don't want to punish them for it.
		Alex uses and abuses that leeway over and over again, and this will be another case of that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		This case will be thrown out.
		I don't know.
		I think if you can establish a pattern of behavior, then you can – I think you can generally prove intent in this circumstance.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Maybe.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It would be difficult.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Now, the problem I think there is that you can't prove intent against this guy.
		Like, you can prove his intent to deceive.
		You can prove his intent to distract.
		I don't think you can prove that he even gives a shit about this dude.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It would be tough to prove malice directed at a guy he's never met.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Who knows?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Anyway, Jordan, now to the fun.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay, good.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We have been promising for a bit now that right around the corner, we're going to get to the matchups in the drop bracket.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Any moment now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I realized, I think I was telling you about this, one of the jokes and one of the reasons, one of the parts of the bit of my old brackets that I did was I intentionally didn't do them in March because I thought it was really stupid how so many fucking blogs will do.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You always have a March Madness kind of thing.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I was lashing out by doing them in August.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Right.
unidentified		Or whatever.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Because bracketing is fun, and it doesn't have to be in March.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, no, no.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You can do it any old time.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So when we started in March, I was like, I got to push this off into April.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So now we're in April.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure, sure.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Say that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right.
		That's my excuse.
		So now we're in April.
		And so far, the matchups that we have seen have been from the guest division.
		We have Steve Pieczenik giving Alex Jones a manners lesson.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Soundly defeating Hamamoto.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yep, so that moves on to the next round.
		Yes.
		And then also, we had where Alex, it's time to pray versus Alex saying he has to leave a rally to go pray.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's time to pray won that one, right?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but it was a lot closer than we had.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It was a lot closer.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		There was a lot of love for the guy in the back of that rally screaming.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah, that is a great one.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's a good one.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a good point.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So people showed up for that.
		But yes, It's Time to Pray has made it on to the next round.
		And I should say that we are doing this, and we will only be going over the first round today, but I am ready.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		The entire first round?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All four brackets?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All right, here we go.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I am ready to reveal all of the entrance.
unidentified		Okay.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, I will say ahead of time: in the course of this podcast that we've done in the last year and a half or so, we've listened to a lot of clips.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And some things just.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Some from the lower dimension and some from the higher.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
		We've talked to goat people.
		Yeah.
		You are not a goat.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You know what?
		They actually were.
		They were very kind.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		They were very polite.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They were wonderful people.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Very polite.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They had some bad ideas, admittedly, but that doesn't mean that you're not a friendly character.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right.
		I think if I did DMT and I met a goat guy and he was like, you got to kill people, I'd be like, I'm going to the hospital.
		I am like, there's something wrong with my subconscious.
		Clearly, I'm not going to listen to a hallucination that's telling me to kill people.
		That's kind of hacky.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		How big?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		How big do you think is a little goat person?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I would have to assume the standard goat person size would be somewhere near six foot.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So a little goat person would be four, four.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So Mr. Tumnis was probably, what, like five, six?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		How dare you?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He was six foot if he was.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He was not six foot.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's tough to judge because Lucy and Edward were children.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Tiny, right?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		And he wasn't that much taller.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's true, but I think he had a hunch because he was a fucking goat guy.
unidentified		Well, it's not like he could.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Well, I think you have to count that in.
		I don't think you can.
		Look, if you have reversible knees, I don't think.
		Reversible knees is that's the medical term for it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Flamingo knee.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's what the doctors call it.
		Right.
		Yeah, let's say five.
unidentified		Let's say five?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		So little goat guy is four.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I would say little goat guy to me, two feet.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Almost pocket-sized.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Tiny.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I'm thinking like a little goat guy on your shoulder who tells you to kill people.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I think Alex would have specified on that if that was the case.
		Right.
		So let's get back on fucking track.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm sorry.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You're the one who wanted to do a short episode.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I can't stop thinking about a two-foot-tall goat guy and how I think he would be cute and I would like to keep him in a little bag like a Paris Hilton dog.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Especially if it spoke English.
unidentified		Oh, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That would be a large qualification I'd have for my goat friend.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, absolutely.
unidentified		So constantly going to parties.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You guys want to talk to my little goat friend?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Number one seed.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Pachenic Manners lesson has moved on to the next round, but now it is time for us to close out the guest division and reveal what the other entries were.
unidentified		All right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Number three seed going up against number two seed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The number three seed in the guest division is Roger Stone interviewing Rick Derringer's wife.
unidentified		Genda, welcome to InfoWars.
		Thank you very much.
		We are so happy to have you here in the studio.
		So, tell us your take on the real American.
		You've got to be very, very proud.
		Well, it sounded 280s to me, so I told Rick, and from then on, he said it's 280s, and then I came up with the idea of having Space Odyssey.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So, there we go.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Some might think this is a controversial choice to be in the number three seed, but let me explain why the selection committee put it in there.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I would give that a two.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Here's why it's three.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You would see it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You will see the two after this.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The number two is very deserving of the number two spot.
		Even it's possible it should be in the number one spot if Jennic hadn't been so strong in the preseason or whatever.
		The number three seed, Roger Stone interviewing Rick Derringer's wife is deserving of the number three seed for two reasons.
		One, it's absurd.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Second, because it's.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Because she claims to come up with the most important part of that song.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, and it's like, it's 280s.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Let's add an 80s part.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But the reason is because that episode where Roger interviews Rick Derringer and his wife is the episode where Jerome Corsi was supposed to reveal all of the stuff that he had learned that would have gotten him killed.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah, that's right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So on the day he's supposed to make that reveal, Alex doesn't show up for work.
		Roger Stone shows up half an hour late and then interviews Rick Derringer's wife.
		So just for context, that is gorgeous.
		Unfortunately, it's going up against an incredibly strong competitor.
		It's someone we know.
		It's someone we've spoken to.
		It is Larry Dick.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, it's Larry Nicks?
larry nichols ▲ ● ▼		Y'all may not have known it, but back when Hillary was first lady, she would go home the weekends to California, but Linda Bloodworth Thomas and some of the other ladies did designing women.
larry nichols ▲ ● ▼		And they went to a church for witches.
unidentified		Witches.
larry nichols ▲ ● ▼		Do you want your president?
		Remember that lady that was trying to run for the Senate, and sometimes she'd gone to some place where they did witch stuff?
		Hillary went to a church and worshiped witches.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Witches.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Also, honorary mention.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's the three witches that gets me.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Linda Bloodworth Thomas.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Witches.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Hillary Clinton.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Delta Burke.
unidentified		Witches.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The Three Witches of Designing Women.
		Yeah.
		Honorable mention also to Larry Nicholson.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's actually what the movie Hocus Pocus was based off of.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And the song Hocus Pocus by Focus.
		Exactly.
		Honorable mention to Larry Nichols.
		I wish there was room for all of his stupid comments.
		But when he's like, President Obama is about as ready to leave office as I am ready to be a duck.
		And I ate a duck.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I would almost throw in our interview where he says, now listen, there's hard rice in this soft rice.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I felt like our own stuff and Project Camelot stuff didn't.
		Yeah, you can't toss that in.
		No.
		So we got Larry Nichols going up against Roger Stone, featuring Rick Derringer's wife rounding out the four seeds of the guest division.
		Very exciting stuff.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Gonna tell you something?
		The natural lime?
		Good stuff.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Good stuff?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Good stuff.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'll get there in a moment.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm all about it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So the praying clips that Alex has done, those come from the religious division.
unidentified		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So there's four seeds in the religious division.
		And it's time to pray has already moved on the one seed.
		And here are the other entries from that.
		Now, you know, we have Alex in two clips saying, it's time to pray.
		I've got to leave this fucking place to pray.
		And so it might surprise you that the number three seed.
		I got my.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You got your eyes a little crossed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Got my seeds wrong.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So the number three seed, Alex Jones, reveals that he, in fact, does not pray every day.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I pray many times a week.
		I wouldn't say every day, but four or five times a week.
		And it seems to help me.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Great.
unidentified		Strong, strong review of prayer.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It seems to help me.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, the selection committee believed that that does not.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Is that an Amazon review?
		Yeah.
		Four stars.
		Four out of five stars.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right, right.
		Four or five stars a week.
		That deserved a place, according to the selection committee, because of how contradictory it is to all the other prayer clips.
		But that will be going up against the number two seed.
unidentified		Also, does he think he's still bragging about doing it four or five times a week?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I think he is.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I think he is still like, hey, listen, I don't do it every day.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I still do it four or five times, which is better than you, you asshole.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You know how easy it is to pray?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I just did it.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		No.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I can't anymore.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		My little goat friend says that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no.
unidentified		I know.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's rough.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		How big is that goat friend?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's about two feet.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		Tiny little goat boy.
		Like a little Jim Brewer.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Like a little Jim Brewer.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So that would be going up.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Now, a little Jim Brewer, definitely not your friend.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, And has bad plans for you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So that would be going up against this, the number two seed.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I can't help it.
		I had a headache.
		I was upset until I called the pope a devil worshiper.
		Now I feel better.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, that one's number one seed.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm picking that one to go to the semis.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's not better than its time.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, that's so good, though.
		I didn't.
		Oh, that's true.
unidentified		That's true.
unidentified		This is so crazy.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Red alert.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Red alert.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Come on.
		I didn't feel better until I called the Pope a devil worshiper.
		That is a great line.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I had a headache, and then I called the Pope the devil worshiper.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		But that suggests that calling the Pope a devil worshiper can heal you much like Jesus.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's therapeutic in some way.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We'll see.
		We'll see what people think.
		I think that that's a pretty even.
		No, who are we kidding?
		That's going to beat the number.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, absolutely.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's going to beat the number three seed.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, for sure.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So I'm telling you, I'm picking that one to go far.
unidentified		All right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We'll see.
		We'll see how the people vote.
		So in the next division that we've got, we've got two more divisions because this is a 16-seed bracket.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So now we've met all of the guest clips and all of the religious clips.
		And that brings us to the next division.
		Alex swearing.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So in this first matchup from the Alex swearing division.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		The one versus the four.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		This is the four seed where he talks about piss.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		You're a big old bucket of rotten milk.
		Somebody pissed down.
		Excuse me.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You'll notice.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We're going to get four straight excuse me, aren't we?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You will notice.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We're going to get a lot of excuse me.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I think all of these do end in him saying excuse me.
		So this should be literally no surprise to anybody.
		It's going up against number one seed.
		Fill your hand, Adam Schiff.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Hell yeah.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I'm not against gay people.
		Okay, I love them.
		They're great folks.
		But Schiff looks like the archetypal cocksucker with those little deer-in-the-headlight eyes and all his stuff.
		And there's something about this fairy hopping around, bossing everybody around, trying to intimidate people like me and you.
		I want to tell Congressman Schiff and all the rest of them, hey, listen, asshole.
		Quit saying Roger and I.
		And I've never used cussing in 22 years, but the gloves are off.
		Listen, you son of a bitch.
		What the fuck's your problem?
		You want to sit here and say that I'm a goddamn fucking Russian?
		You get in my face with that.
		I'll beat your goddamn ass, you son of a bitch.
		Piece of shit.
		Shit, fucking goddamn fucker.
		Listen, fuckhead.
		You have fucking crossed the line.
		Get that through your goddamn fucking head.
		Stop pushing your shit.
		You're the people that have fucked this country over and gang raped the shit out of it and lost an election.
		So stop shooting your mouth off claiming I'm the enemy.
		You got that, you goddamn son of a bitch?
		Fill your hand.
		I'm sorry about that.
		You start calling me a foreign agent.
		Those are fucking fighting words.
		Excuse me.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Excuse me.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Love it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Gotta end with the excuse me.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that from the first moment we heard it, it's like that is poetry.
unidentified		Is it?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, to me.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You goddamn fucker.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You son of a bitch.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You son of a bitch.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You piece of shit calling me a Russian.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Fill your hand.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You goddamn fuckhead.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, it talks about.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's not what you fucking say to me.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It brought Fill Your Hand into our lives.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Fill your hand has changed our lives.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		There's so much going on there.
		And the, I mean, it's over a minute of him screaming obscenity at Adam Schiff.
		It's tough.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Poorly.
unidentified		Poorly.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Very poorly.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's really bad at swearing.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's tough, man.
		It's tough for anything to be a number one seed when that is in the consideration.
		When that's in the game in the swearing section, like, I don't know what you're going to do.
		The number two seed, I think, might have a chance.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You know what?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm not going to lie, I think that one, I don't think that one is going to go that far.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We'll see.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't think that one's going to go that far.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I do not think it's going to get beat by your bucket of rotten piss.
		No, absolutely not.
		So that's the first matchup.
		That's the number one versus the number four seed.
		And that brings us to the number two versus number three seed.
		Here's the number three seed.
		Who's banned?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Conservatives are banned, bitches.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's not the best, but it's fun because of the bitches.
		Because it doesn't feel like Alex.
		He'll be like, conservatives are banned, bitch.
unidentified		That's not how I think of him.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's almost the opposite of the way that you would say that.
		That seems to me like something I would say when conservatives, I'd be like, conservatives are banned, bitches.
		Like that kind of a thing.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right, right.
		I don't know.
		That's going up against number two seed in the swearing division.
		And I think that this has a chance to unseat Fill Your Hand Adam Schiff, but that is because this is profound.
		And this is, of course, from a very drunk special report that Alex did.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		America first is bad.
		Oh, by the way, we're trying to save America.
		Okay.
		What a load of shit.
		I mean, I've never heard such shit in my fucking life, okay?
		This cocksucker.
		It's wound up with his shit to go on here and spew this fucking filth at us.
		We're all we're trying to just have a fucking life, you piece of shit.
		Fuck you.
		Goddamn piece of shit.
		God, I've never seen such a fucking mice.
		Excuse me.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, excuse me.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		See, now, the reason that I think that that has the potential to eclipse the Fill Your Hand clip is because, like, there is so much more real anger there, I think.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, I think he was.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Well, and he was doing his Dianne Feinstein impression, right?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's what he was doing there?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yes, absolutely.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We got an impression, and that's big.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, I think it was Cuomo.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Was it Cuomo?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Cuomo from CNN.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm halfway thinking it was Bernie again.
unidentified		Hey, Woody Agabagoule.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I was like, did his Bernie turn into an Italian mafia, Don?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What's going on here?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'm not sure what to tell you, but I will say, I think the like, I don't think, especially, I mean, from the time that we've been doing it, we don't have any other clips of Alex just directly saying, fuck you.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And that's pretty wild.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Because that's direct and very, you know, whereas, oh, man.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that's some championship swearing right there.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, and at the same time, it's amazing how bad he is at it.
		Like, fucking piece of shit.
		Fuck it.
		Like, like the drunk guy at a bar that makes you feel.
		I swear so much, but if I was at a bar with a guy swearing like that, I'd be like, ugh, come on, man.
unidentified		Grow up.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Like, that's the immediate reaction I have to that is like, uh, what are you doing?
		Are you a child?
		Are you a child?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that's what we're ending up sort of a conclusion.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, once we finish this podcast and we decide to move on to something else, the conclusion we're going to end up to is Alex is in a tragic state of delayed adolescence.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Like, that's what's going on.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Permanent adolescence.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		His behavior is that of a child.
		It's a petulant little child.
		That's why he doesn't understand anything.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's Lenny.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's why he doesn't understand anything he reads.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, we've got to fucking tell him about the rabbits.
unidentified		Oh, man.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You know what I'm saying?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, that'd be brutal.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Thankfully, he can't read that book, so he doesn't get the reference.
		Otherwise, he'd be really mad at us.
		So, Jordan, that brings us to our last division.
		Four seeds.
		In this last division, it was incredibly difficult to figure out how this should be laid out.
		And so I decided.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, are you going to do a potpourri?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It is.
		It is a miscellaneous section.
		There were some other thoughts I had, but legitimately, the idea of the amount of work it would take to do a 32-seed bracket, it's just beyond what I have bandwidth for at this point.
		So here we are.
		We have these four seeds in the miscellaneous section.
		And we will start with the number four versus the number one seed.
		Here is the number four seed in the miscellaneous section.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I got me a rock and roll band.
		It's free-for-all.
		I got me a radio show, TV show, with 20 million listeners and viewers a week.
		It's a free-for-all.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Got me your rock and roll band.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		See, now that I don't know how to seed the miscellaneous.
		I'm interested to see how you seeded it because that, to me, is gold, my friend.
		It's gold.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I got me, your rock and roll band.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's gold as a drop.
		I tried to weigh the drop versus weird clip.
		It's difficult.
		And that is sort of standing in place with a lot of the other times he sang.
		I think that's the best example of him singing something.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Because it's immediately unclear that he's trying to sing a Ted Nugent song.
		Right.
		But then the.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Is that how Ted Nugent sounds?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't think it is.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, it is not.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		sounds a lot worse oh did you uh let me ask you a question dan did you bring back uh Did you bring back our Ludacris?
unidentified		No.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, I should have.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I feel like that one's in there.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We got a whole YouTube video out of that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I know, but it's too.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		One of our amazing listeners spliced it in.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's too regular.
		He says it all the time.
		That did think about that, but he doesn't do that.
		He doesn't sing free-for-all all the time.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, that's true.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He does yell, bottom TVs, bitch.
		Tell me that.
		That could have gone in the cursing section.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but the rhythm of it, the rhythm of it was perfect.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You think that's not how I feel?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Do you think I don't have that belief?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		If I had this all to do over, I probably would have an entire section of singing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		Oh, yeah, that would be.
		That would be a delight.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		Also, well pointed out in the chat room, also the strong embellishment of his listener numbers.
		$20 million a week.
		It's free-for-all.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's a free-for-all.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Shut up.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So anyway, this next number one seed is actually two clips.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I would also have said if you had more time, I would have gone with an impression bracket.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But it would all be for Bernie.
		I feel like that's actually grandfathered in the same way that a lot of the stuff in the like go home and tell your mother you're brilliant clips.
		I feel like that's been elevated past.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I want to address some backlash that is going to obviously come.
		I took stuff out of context for like the Jar Jar Binks thing in the policy walk drop.
		What he's actually saying isn't that funny.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's just commenting on the character of Jar Jar Binks.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's just funny as an out-of-context drop.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		But we've giving you backlash.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I just imagine backlash.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Where are these backlashers coming from?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I know that there's fans of the Jar Jar Binks drop.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a fantastic drop.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And also, what makes it fun is the way I cut it together to make it sound like he's saying that Jar Jar Binks is a loser little titty baby.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But that comes from a time he was yelling about Colin Kaepernick.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So the two of them together, spliced together, are funny, but the actual things they come from aren't they?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't think anybody who takes that technocrats drop as a well, see, they take him out of context is insane.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'm just saying the bracketeering is serious business.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yes, bracketeering is serious business.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		People are very, you know, they have their favorites, and I understand and I respect that, but there's reasons.
		So here's the number one seed, and it's two clips that are very similar.
		I couldn't decide which was representative.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So you're tossing them both in there.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So these are.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Wishy-washy, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, you'll see why.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Act liberal.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Act liberal.
		I'm liberal.
		I rule.
unidentified		The bat at the end really seals the deal.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Act liberal.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I'm liberal.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Bat.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I rule.
		So there's that.
		And then here is the second part of the because he's doing the liberal stuff there, but there's a different flavor of it too.
		And I think the number one seed is all of it.
unidentified		Just want to be with you.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Liberal, liberal.
		Fiercely.
		Oh, come on.
		Liberal.
		Liberal.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So that's the flip side of the liberal coin, where he's like, like Smeagle or some shit.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But then also, it's important.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We are also going to add a Alex Jones makes throat noises, bracket.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Sure, sure.
		It's also.
		It's important to remember, too, that click you heard at the beginning there is him opening a switchblade.
		So that should weigh into that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a solid number one seed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So we got number one seed, act liberal versus number four seed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's a free-for-all.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's a free-for-all.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now we go to number two and three seed.
		And this was difficult, a little difficult, because the parameters of the miscellaneous division is wide open.
		It can be anything.
		It's not just religious things or swearing or gastophyte.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You are setting this up hard.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But I'm trying to get myself out of it.
		It's bad.
		Here's number three, Alex Jones, making a startling confession about his sexuality.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to be honest, I'm actually gay, and I'm dating a man named Rachel Manow.
unidentified		This is never going to end this.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Oh, my God.
unidentified		They're going to take that out of context and lip it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So that clip belongs in there partially because of the end.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to actually go with the that clip is never going to end fake laugh, or that this joke is never going to end fake laugh, because that's almost a cry for help there.
		She's like, she is, yeah.
		For real.
		This joke is never going to end.
		Alex, please.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, yeah, and that's another instance of, I don't remember that girl's name.
		It's Julia something, Urbanski or something like that.
		She's that anarcho-capitalist that was on.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I believe he was also hitting on her as well.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's tough to look at things without that prism.
		It's very flirty.
		I think he actually lets her host for a good couple segments on that show as well, much like he did with Katie Hopkins.
		So that's the number three seed.
		And here we go to the number two seed.
		And this probably is in the number two seed because it's just gross.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I think it's something that doesn't.
		I think if we talked about this, I'm not sure if we did.
		But if we did, it doesn't get enough attention.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Porn.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Take porn.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Please.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I can't even watch it anymore.
		And I'm not going to sit in front of our audience and be fake and say I've never seen porn.
		I literally.
		You know what I like?
unidentified		Oh, that's right.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I like typing in pin-up girls from the 50s.
		And I'll just sit there for like an hour on my computer looking at women as pin-up girls.
		Or like a waitress in a cute skirt and cute outfit.
		Like a woman cute and happy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's so that's the number two seed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Because I felt like there needed to be a representation of Alex being gross.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Being real gross.
unidentified		That is so gross.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I like to sit for an hour and look at pin-up girls.
unidentified		Like multiple or just the one?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Probably multiple.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I assume he likes selection.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You think he has a calendar?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He has to have one of those calendars.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, he sold a calendar that had pin-up shots of Leanne McAdoo on it back then.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's weird.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, there's like you can find swimsuit pictures of her on the internet because of that.
		Which kind of takes away from some of her journalistic credibility?
		I don't know.
		Maybe it does.
		Maybe it doesn't.
		You know, I don't know.
		I'm not judging her for it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's also a really good.
		I don't know.
		Yeah.
		That's a tough question to ask.
		Especially about somebody who has no journalistic credibility via their own journalism.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I think that's the bigger issue.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		She started at zero and it's not really affecting her.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, no, that's a good point.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		So those are the seeds, folks.
		The voting will be up on our Facebook page.
		Go home and tell your mother you're brilliant.
		And that will be up on Wednesday when this episode drops.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What do you think?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What would you pick as your winner?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Boy, I tell you what, it's tough.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know how things are going to break, but, I mean, because he...
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, I mean, your personal, like, I'm not asking you to predict.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm asking you, Dan, if you were going to vote for the ultimate winner.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What are you choosing?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What's your kind of flavor of Alex Jones' clip?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know if I want to bias people with it, but I think it's to me that I can pick, I can tell you what I think should win out of each division, let's say.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Don't say should, what you want or believe should win.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		My prediction for the final four is the Alex screaming, fuck you, the number two seed.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Don't feel your hand.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, the number two.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no, no, the number two seeds.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I think it's going to pull an upset, possibly.
		All right.
		Act Liberal, I think, is.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Got to give me Act Liberal.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And in the religious division, probably the Pope is a devil worshiper.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I love the Pope as a devil worshiper.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's a really strong word.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's short, it's compact, and it gets to the point.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's a great bit.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		If something can beat It's Time to Pray, I think that is the one that's possible.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And then from the guest division, I mean, I'm biased because we talked to him, but I got to go with Larry Nichols.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You got to go with T.B. Larry Nicks.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I just think that he's so crazy.
unidentified		Do you think he's dead yet?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, he's alive.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's right, because he's not actually sick.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, I think he is sick.
		It's just like it's not cancer.
		Yeah.
		That's my understanding.
		I think someone was saying that he has like emphysema or something like that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, well, that sucks.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it does suck.
		But I don't know.
		I don't know the reality of it, and I don't really particularly care.
		But I have a soft spot for Larry Nichols.
		And if Hamamoto's gone, he's up there as my favorite crazy.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Although, it's going to be tough against Steve Pieczenik.
		If it makes it to the next round, Steve Pieczenik's manners lesson versus Larry Nichols.
		I don't know how that's going to break.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Go home and tell your mother you're brilliant.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's not from that clip.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I thought you were going to ask me how I'm doing is that clip.
		So I don't know.
		What about you?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What are your picks?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Man, I'm actually partial to any impression that he does.
unidentified		So that's automatically kind of something that I like.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't think it's going to make it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So the Italian cursor?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't think it's going to make it.
		The only reason I'm partial to his impressions is because there's nothing I love more than making fun of his impressions and calling them something else.
		I don't know how I can't enjoy that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So that's your pick?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I kind of wish Little Goatman was in there now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That was outside of the timeframe.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That was rough.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to go with Act Liberal.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Act Liberal.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to go with that as the ultimate winner.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I'm Liberal.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's tough.
		I mean, it's a really perfect encapsulation of what Alex is about.
		So those are the seeds, my friends.
		Get to voting.
		I hope everyone is not too furious about some things that didn't make the cut.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yes, yes.
		Much like the NCA bracket, there is always going to be somebody you feel was snubbed.
		There's always going to be somebody you feel who was more deserving.
		We respect that.
		Dan chose all of them, so send him your emails.
		Knowledgefight at gmail.com.

unidentified		Sure.

dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's knowledgefight.com/slash drops.
		And there's a bunch of drops already up there, and I'm putting more up as time goes on.
		But it's an exhausting process of finding these clips in my archive.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, eventually all our merch will be is just a CD version or a downloadable version of all of the brilliant songs you guys create.

		Yeah.

jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Boy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		This has been a short one.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		This has been a short one.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's been hard to get a flavor for who should take the honors.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Rick Derringer?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
unidentified		Why not?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He listened to his wife.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You've got to give him credit for that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Why, Rick Derringer's wife?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		There you go.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		All right, Rick Derringer's wife, go fuck yourself.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Thanks for holding.
