If you think THAT'S bad, please spare some sympathy for Dan of the excellent Knowledge Fight podcast

Those type of podcasts seem pretty easy to produce a lot of though.

I wonder if he has a plan for when Jones suffers a massive heart attack though? I hope j Jed’s saved for some kind of retirement.

There's tons of material to choose from, sure. The challenging part is listening to hours and hours and hours of Jones' mad and frequently tedious rantings and then cut out the boring parts to make an entertaining show.

Dan and Jordan have often said that they would love for the podcast to become obsolete by Jones never broadcasting anything again.

Whether they have any plans for what to do after that is less clear. Might move on to another propagandist, might make a podcast about something else entirely, might call it quits 🤷

I hope j Jed’s saved for some kind of retirement

I have no idea who that is, but sure 🤷

Yeah the long term toll is probably something any of them would have to deal with.

Autocorrect did something insane to “they’ve”
