  • Fake laughter + too many adverts = not enough content to hold my interest

    Andrew is trying to sound amused and comes across entirely insincere and fawning toward his cohost. Add that to the fact that the advertisements account for almost as much airtime as the show and I'm left to wonder how I can better spend my time.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Deck Chairs on the Titanic (feat. Kel McClanahan)
Q: Where are the boxes from Mar-a-Lago, and what is the status of their records in relation to FOIA?
Kel explains the FOIA case, the Presidential Records Act arguments, and the ongoing efforts to obtain and preserve presidential records, highlighting that records may be subject to different rules depending on their classification and custody, with a likely race to the Supreme Court depending on how courts rule.
Ed Martin Charged (feat. Liz Oyer)
Q: What is the historical role of the pardon attorney, and why is it considered nonpartisan?
Liz Oyer explains that the pardon attorney is a career official whose job is to advise the president on clemency based on merit and nonpartisan standards, not political favoritism, and that this framework aims to ensure fair, unbiased vetting of pardon candidates.
HITMEINTHEHEADWITHABAT
Q: Can Kash Patel be investigated or sued for firing people specialized in bad actors from Iran if we do have an attack within the US or for his ignorance and stupidity?
No, he cannot be sued for firing people as part of his official duties; the remedy would be removal from office, not a personal lawsuit.
Autopen Fan Fiction
Q: If there are Iranian sleeper cells in America and Cash Patel is actively pursuing FBI personnel, should we worry about the threat level?
The hosts agree that there is a real concern about Iran-related threats and emphasize the need for discipline in counterintelligence work, noting recent personnel changes and the importance of maintaining robust, properly justified investigations rather than retaliatory actions.
Autopen Fan Fiction
Q: With Lice Barbie demoted, can she still reside on a military base at taxpayer expense?
The hosts express uncertainty and indicate that rules about security details and living arrangements post-tenure are governed by agency policies and existing regulations, implying the answer depends on specific DOJ and government protocol rather than a simple yes or no.
