    Premium: If The Daily Wire Loves Freedom So Much, Why Did It Try To Literally Enslave Steven Crowder? Jan 31, 2023
    Show notes

    Day 204

    Life in the podcast mines is hell. From so far underground, I can no longer hear the pigeons, or Jesse running the food processor. I can’t even remember what the sky looks like. Yet I dig deeper, in search of good content. Every once in a while Katie comes down and sics Moose on me for “not working hard enough”. And when I woke up today, I found Steven Crowder down here with me.

    Just when you think things can’t get any worse…

    * Jesse processes his dick off

    * Jesse runs a 4-minute mile, plus or minus 3 minutes

    * Steven Crowder gets enslaved by The Daily Wire

    * Primo shoutouts

Then the nurses came out and said Battletech was problematic, so we banned that as well. Then a data scientist came out and said Florida’s COVID data was fake, so we banned the entire state.
