JFK 101 dives into the chaotic 1963 Dallas motorcade—Dealey Plaza’s Secret Service gaps, Dallas PD’s 200-officer deployment, and the Texas Book Depository’s sniper angle—while weaving in Pauly Shore’s post-9/11 tour antics (including a "Mayor is gay" joke) and his reported public advances on women. The episode blends dark history with absurdity, from The Misfits’ JFK lyrics to a Hong Kong-Hitler satire clarification, before teasing deep-dive conspiracy threads with guests Ben and Aaron.

I'm going to start a new thing where, like you, I just say duh instead of everything.
Oh man, it makes everything 10 times funnier.
Everything sounds very cool when you say it like that.
You know, when I used to tour with Pauly Shore in like 03, like we were doing this kind of like post-9-11 circuit around like Upper New Jersey, lower Boston, and like the New York area.
That was like basically the focus of my hour and a half long sets.
As I would just be like, duh, like Mayor is gay or whatever.
And like people would just eat that shit up.
My friend matched with him on one of the apps.
That's very funny that you mentioned that because I met up with a buddy, this guy Drew, I know, for coffee this morning.
I told you about this.
I met up with this guy for coffee this morning and his girlfriend's there.
And, you know, we're talking, we're talking about the Meddie Money thing because Drew also used to have Eddie Money's number.
I've talked about that on the show before.
I used to prank call him.
And I mentioned I had Pauly Shore's number too.
And this girl's like, yeah, Paulie Shore once like hit on me in it, like, just in public once.
Oh, I know.
And that tracks with dozens of women.
Oh, yes.
Pauli Shore just goes up to girls is like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let me get a piece.
Yeah, I mean, you know what?
I bet it works sometimes.
So if it worked once, you got to try it again.
And then, you know, if it worked once in 10, you got to try.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
If you have, listen, if you're listening to the show and you have success, Pauli Shore is successfully hooked up.

Oh, yeah.
You hit the DMs.
I absolutely hit the DMs.
Not because I think that if he.
No, because we want to know the story.
Yeah.
I just want to know the story.
Okay.
Yeah.
To be clear.
I saw him once.
Hey, what's up?
It's Wacky Brace.
Hong Hong.
Don't do the Hong Kong.
Dude, when we record for this long, I like.
I know.
Wait, remember when that crazy lady on the internet said that Hong Kong was a Hitler thing?
Yeah.
Yeah.
But like, she was right.
Like, when I like it is, it is.
No, but that's what you do.
It's not that it actually is.
He was the greatest clown in history.
I think.
No.
He was a joker.
Oh, I was like, are you defending Hitler?
But I realize, of course, you're defending clowns.
Yeah.
Hello, everyone.
Hi, I'm Bryce.
I'm Liz.
We are, of course.
Joined by.
I have to.
Too long a pause.
No, I was doing that to make you feel uncomfortable.
You need to make space.
I'm naked.
I really wish you would put some pants on.
We're joined by producer Young Chomsky.
I don't feel uncomfortable at all, baby.
Our podcast is called.
As usual, it's the woman who feels uncomfortable, which means that according to men's arithmetic, no one feels uncomfortable.
Call me Young Toobin.
You know, reference.
Anyways, Jeffrey Toobin.
Anyway.
Didn't he get fired?
I don't want to talk about it.
We are doing another JFK episode.
Yeah, now we've made it.
We're finally here.
The end of the line for Jack Kennedy.
But not for this series.
Yeah.
So we are talking today, of course, with our illustrious guests, Ben and Aaron, about the incident in Dealey Plaza, November 22nd, 1963, which happens to be a good song by the Australian band The New Race.
And also, I think The Misfits wrote a song about it.
I think it's great that you finally are ready to come out to let everyone know that you were there.
I was, I'm very old.
But yeah, it's a rollicking episode.
We talk about, well, fucking, I'm not going to tell you what we talk about.
We talk about it in the episode.
Fucking listen to it.
starts now.
Finally, we have arrived.
Our motorcade has started.
Our loyal Secret Service agents have mostly not been deployed.
Our good friends in the Dallas Police Department are really, you know, just looking for any threat anywhere.
All the good people at the Texas Book Depository at work and just a beautiful grassy knoll ahead of us.
