#296: May 8, 2019
EToday, Dan tells Jordan about one of the weirdest days ever on The Alex Jones Show. Alex begins the show really depressed about Satanists and finishes the show by barging out of the studio for one of the most childish reasons imaginable. The key is in what happens in between, like Alex thinking the show Gunsmoke is realistic.

#295: Crossover With QAnon Anonymous
EToday, Dan and Jordan present you with something a little different. The gents were thrilled to do a cross-over episode with the QAnon Anonymous podcast, where the two sides debate the possibility of finding a middle ground, to create a unified peace between QAnon and Alex Jones, thereby bringing harmony to the world of conspiracy.

#294: January 15-16, 2013
EToday, Dan and Jordan get back to the past to continue looking into what Alex Jones was doing in the days after Sandy Hook. Not a whole lot to learn about Alex's opinion on the shooting this episode, but the gents do get to talk a bit about Alex planning tax fraud with his neighbor, "the Illuminati card game," and Alex recommending a book that Timothy McVeigh liked even more than the Turner Diaries.

#293: May 2-3, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan discuss the end of the last week on the Alex Jones Show. During this span of time, Alex went from being not-banned from a few social media platforms to being super-banned from them, so the gents discuss how Alex took the news, and what clues he may have given about how it went down.

#292: January 14, 2013
EToday, Dan and Jordan dig into the past to try to learn more about how Alex Jones covered the days after Sandy Hook, but things go a little off the rails in this installment. On this episode, Alex has managed to land a guest he's very excited about, the "Obama-Phone Lady," which leads to a very weird day at the InfoWars studio.

#291: Feline Contessas And Canine Capitalists
EToday, Dan and Jordan take a Wacky Wednesday break from talking about Alex Jones to take a little look into some chaos in Project Camelot land. Sweary Kerry has been pretty mad lately about a British guy who is making a documentary about how her friend Mark Richards is not a space captain (which he is not), but actually a murderer (which he is). As professional Mark Richards analysts, the gents decide that they need to know a little more about this situation, so they dig in and see what's up.

#290: April 25-26, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan discuss all the ins and outs of what happened on the Alex Jones Show on April 25th and 26th. It's mostly Alex rehashing old narratives and lying about people who are suing him, but along the way, he finds time to his toe into some of incredibly troubling ideas.

#289: January 10-13, 2013
EAlex Jones has been out of studio bullhorning in Washington DC to try to get back on Twitter, so Dan and Jordan stay in the past for today's episode to look more into Alex's path downward after Sandy Hook. This installment largely covers a period where Alex cannot stop talking about being on Piers Morgan's show, but thankfully, there's a couple other topics that come up that are worth covering.

#288: January 7-9, 2013
EToday, Dan and Jordan go back to the past to continue their investigation of how everything went so far off the rails for Alex Jones in the aftermath of the Sandy Hook shooting. In this installment, the gents discuss Alex's fictional retelling of traveling to New York to argue with Piers Morgan, and find the starting point of him talking about "crisis actors" on his show.

#287: April 15-18, 2019
EToday, Jordan returns from his vacation, so Dan fills him in on all the goings-on from the past "Huge News Week" on The Alex Jones Show.

#286: Wrestling With Disappointment
EJordan is still on vacation, so Dan brings in the great Marty DeRosa from the Marty and Sarah Love Wrestling podcast to sit in. In the past, Dan has disappointed Marty by telling him about the times that pro wrestlers Kane and Roddy Piper appeared on InfoWars. Has he found another wrestler popping up as a guest? Of course he has, and it's not Jesse Ventura.

#285: Lil' Taste of Poland
EToday, Dan and Jordan take a little break from talking about Alex Jones to dip their toes into the murky waters of Stefan Molyneux, specifically a mini-documentary he released in December 2018 about going to Poland. Documentary might be the wrong word.

#284: April 12, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan check in with the present day of the Alex Jones Show. Come witness the lengths Dan will go to try to find something interesting to talk about when Alex is being really boring, and Jordan getting a little surprise treat before he takes off for a short vacation.

#283: January 4-6, 2013
EToday, Dan and Jordan have had enough of 2019 Alex Jones for this week, so they retreat to the past to continue their investigation into Alex's behavior in the aftermath of Sandy Hook. In this installment, the gents meet a truly insane small town police chief and find Alex coming off really petty about media bookings.

#282: April 5, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan discuss the April 5th episode of The Alex Jones Show, where Alex makes a public overture to the QAnon Crowd. Unfortunately, that is a very small part of the episode, which is mostly just Alex being really gross, and behaving in ways that will probably get people hurt.

#281: April 4, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan take a look at some modern day Alex Jones to see what they can learn from it. It turns out, they learn that Alex may be basing a lot of his worldview on a specific sci-fi novel, and that his lawyers don't seem to trust him much.

#280: Raptor Weddings and Sardinian Spiders
EToday, Dan and Jordan take a detour into Project Camelot world to go over the latest entry in the saga of Sweary Kerry's interviews with Mark Richards, a convicted murderer who likes to pretend he's a space warrior. In this installment, Kerry actually discusses Mark's crime, which is a bad move, since it kind of opens the door for Dan and Jordan to do the same.

#279: Formulaic Objections
EToday, Dan and Jordan discuss the recent deposition that Alex Jones had to give in his Sandy Hook lawsuit. Does Alex admit he still thinks there's something fishy about Sandy Hook? Does Alex's lawyer pick a fight with opposing council as a distraction? Does Alex accidentally reveal that he doesn't even care enough to know basic details about the shooting he's being sued for lying about? The answer to all these questions is yes.

#278: January 3, 2013
EToday, Dan and Jordan continue their exploration of what Alex Jones was up to back in the days and weeks after Sandy Hook. In this installment, it appears that Alex recently learned about gaslighting. He spends most of the show accusing the "Globalists" of gaslighting people, while gaslighting his audience like crazy.

#277: March 15, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan discuss Alex Jones' show from the day after last week's terrorist attacks against mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand. Unsurprisingly, Alex attempts to create absurd narratives and implies that the attack may have been a false flag, while dancing around some real gross victim blaming behavior.

#276: January 1-2, 2013
EToday, Dan and Jordan continue their investigation into Alex Jones' reportage in the aftermath of the tragedy of Sandy Hook. As the new year begins, Alex is still deep in his "gun paranoia" holding pattern, but thankfully he keeps things interesting by telling a weird story about his past brush with Hollywood and interviewing a major player in the rise of militias in the early 1990's.

#275: December 23-31, 2012
EToday, Dan and Jordan discuss some strange goings-on in the present day of Alex Jones' show before taking a glimpse back into 2012 to speed through a bit of a stretch where Alex found himself in a "Gun Paranoia Holding Pattern."

#274: Ask Alex Anything
EToday, Jordan was busy, so Dan called in Robert Evans (Behind The Bastards) to join him for a bonus episode. After finishing recording his own show on Tuesday, Alex Jones and PJW did an "Ask Me Anything" live on the air, and things did not go quite how any of them may have planned.

#273: March 5-6, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan check in on how things are going in the world of Alex Jones in the present day. They mostly find some of the same old nonsense, but more importantly, they catch glimpse of a sign that Alex's days in business may be numbered.

#272: December 20, 2012
EToday, Dan and Jordan jump back into their investigation of Alex Jones' behavior after the Sandy Hook mass shooting. The gents find a man in a bit of a conspiracy holding pattern, but some signs of things to come pop up.

#271: The Serpent Loves Word Games
EToday, Dan and Jordan take a much needed break from talking about real things to see what's happening in the world of Sweary Kerry and the space weirdos. In this installment, the gents meet a guy who thinks that language is a conspiracy, and learn that Kerry has recently found out about decades-old Marvel characters' backstories.

#270: The Rogan Return
EToday, Dan and Jordan don't want to do it, but they discuss Alex Jones' recent appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast. Most of the conversation is about how Alex is a mentally unwell person, but a fair amount is also about how Joe is incredibly stupid and allows Alex to lie to him a bunch. Oh well.

#269: December 19, 2012
EToday, Dan and Jordan continue their investigation into how Alex Jones behaved in the immediate aftermath of the shootings at Sandy Hook. In this installment, the gents learn more about how awful Ted Nugent is, discuss UK crime statistics, and struggle with Alex taking a serious turn in his rhetoric for seemingly no reason.

#268: December 17-18, 2012
EToday, Dan and Jordan continue looking into how Alex Jones covered the tragedy that occurred at Sandy Hook in the days immediately following. In this installment, the gents see a solidifying of Alex's "this is all about my guns" mentality, but also the beginning of a troubling drift toward finding ways to sensationalize things that everyone knows will not end well.

#267: December 16, 2012
EToday, Dan and Jordan continue their investigation into how Alex Jones behaved in the immediate aftermath of Sandy Hook. In this installment, Alex has had a few days to regroup after the shock of dealing with the breaking news while on air. Will that affect how he carries himself?

#266: December 14, 2012
EToday, Dan and Jordan decide there's no time like the present, so they embark on an investigation into how Alex Jones covered the tragedy at Sandy Hook. How did Alex come to the position where he would say on air that the events were staged? How long did it take him to get into those narratives? Episode one of the investigation may not answer any of the "big questions," but it certainly provides a number of clues.

#265: September 1, 2011
EToday, Dan and Jordan go back to the past on a time travel adventure recommended by Policy Wonk Jim. There were a lot of theories about what Alex Jones might have been interested in talking about back in Fall 2011, but no one could have predicted that he would dedicate about a third of his show to talking about how much he likes the idea of teachers hitting students.

#264: February 11-13, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan talk about what Alex Jones is doing in the present day. In a move that is not surprising, Alex expresses deeply bigoted positions. In a move that surprises a few, Dan reveals that he is real into Depeche Mode.

#263: Jordan Takes The Wheel
EToday, Dan and Jordan switch roles on the show, to see how that feels. Jordan is very passionate about climate change, so for his episode he decided to find a particularly distasteful climate denier to go over. Also, Dan seems to have a lot of possibly inaccurate thoughts about music when he doesn't have to prepare for an episode.

#262: April 14, 2009
EToday, Dan and Jordan look back to 2009 as Alex Jones inches closer to America's first Tax Day while the Tea Party is a thing. That doesn't factor into this episode all this much, since Alex has Big Jim Tucker on the show as a guest and he ends up saying a word on the show that is a huge problem.

#261: February 5-6, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan discuss the struggle that Alex Jones is going through these days. Alex feels like Joe Rogan has been really victimizing him lately, and the gents really hate to see someone go through something like that.

#260: Aliens Need Editors
EToday, Dan and Jordan take a much needed break from talking about Alex Jones in order to go on an adventure through space with Project Camelot. In this installment, Sweary Kerry sits down with a potential alien and definite Frenchman to discuss his life full of paranormal experiences, but ultimately all may not be what it seems.

#259: January 27-29, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan try their best to keep track of what's going on in the present day with Alex Jones. In the aftermath of Roger Stone getting indicted, Alex unsurprisingly starts indicating that he has no interest in defending Trump or Roger anymore, and desperately wants to be who he used to be.

#258: April 12-13, 2009
EToday, Dan and Jordan discuss a little bit of Alex Jones content from the past. In this installment, Alex introduces at least two completely misrepresented documents into his narratives, and Dan expresses that he thinks the mystery of Alex Jones And The Case Of The Tea Party is pretty much solved.

#257: January 25, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan discuss how Roger Stone got indicted for crimes he definitely committed, and break down how Alex Jones responded to the news. It's all a mess.

#256: January 17-23, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan take a little glimpse at what Alex Jones is up to in the present day. The gents discuss the predictability of his modern narratives, the absurdity of his stories about his own life, and how a new revelation could change everything about how he should be covered in the present.

#255: September 25, 2011
EToday, Policy Wonk Joshua has sent Dan and Jordan back to 2011 to see what Alex Jones thought about the Occupy Wall Street protests. Dan chose this day because it was the day after around 80 peaceful protesters were arrested, and it seemed like Alex might be mad about that. The gents get into this and also speculate that Alex just discovered The Who in 2011.

#254: April 9-10, 2009
EToday, Dan and Jordan learn that, when you're listening to InfoWars, sometimes you're thinking "eh, what the fuck" like when Alex Jones complains about how Marc Maron wants to sodomize him. Other times, you're thinking "what the fuck?!?" like when Alex begins to describe his feelings about Somali pirates.

#253: January 15, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan check in on the present day of the Alex Jones Show, and what do you know, they find Alex carrying a bunch of water for outright white nationalist Rep. Steve King. A disappointing thing to find, but not too surprising.

#252: April 7-8, 2009
EToday, Dan and Jordan venture back into 2009 to follow Alex's path through history. On this installment, the gents stumble into a big change in Alex's rhetoric and try very hard to remember that sometimes coincidences can just be coincidences.

#251: January 8, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan discuss how Alex Jones decided to cover the idea that Donald Trump was threatening to declare a national emergency in order to get his wall made. In a turn of events that will surprise no one, it all turns out being a very racist affair, where Alex makes it way too obvious that he really, really wants to serve a dictator.

#250: Remote Poisoners And Crypto Bigotry
EToday, Dan and Jordan go on a Wacky Wednesday adventure and check in on an interview Sweary Kerry did for Project Camelot back in April 2016. In this one, she interviews a guy who claims to have a background in intelligence, but also seems to have multiple ulterior motives motivating him.

#249: Predicting 9/11
EToday, Dan and Jordan take a look at Alex Jones' claim that he predicted the attacks of September 11th. Alex made his prediction in July of 2001, but is there more to this story than he is telling? As is always the case with Alex, it appears that there is.

#248: January 2, 2019
EToday, Dan and Jordan see how Alex Jones is doing in the new year. It turns out that his resolution was not "stop being really weird about Muslims." Beyond that, Alex has decided to hitch his wagon to a really dumb team of cyber criminals.

#247: Lionel
EToday, Dan and Jordan enjoy a Wacky Wednesday adventure looking at one of Alex's guests, the enigmatic QAnon enthusiast, Lionel. The gents dig into a cornucopia of old hot takes from Lionel and discuss the path from humor hack to political hack.
