#385 "Elon, NHJ, and MJ"
Recorded on Sunday afternoon, this now-vintage episode was consider lost forever, after a certain Fifth Columnist discovered that he still doesn’t understand how computers, cameras, and microphones work. Well….lost until we (i.e. Moynihan) found a weird backup copy of the episode on the Twitch servers! So…a few days late, of variable quality, and now available for download:* Back to the “Twitter files,” reluctantly* Everyone loves Joe McCarthy * Yet another James/Jim Baker* The pointlessness of trying to control speech* The Times pickets* The Times returns, writes an absurd article about Cuba* A Michael Jackson hagiography on Broadway This is a public episode.
