Episode notes
Alex Jones Closure Claim Seems More Credible
- Alex Jones' repeated announcements that InfoWars will shut down now sound more credible due to a noticeably different tone and apparent drunkenness.
- Jared Holt and Michael Edison Hayden point to a specific March 12 Tim Pool clip where Jones sounds exhausted and slurring, making the closure claim feel more real.
Hosts React To Drunk Alex Jones Clips
- Jared recounts listening to the Tim Pool interview where Alex Jones repeatedly says he's shutting InfoWars down and sounds 'exhausted' and drunk.
- They play clips of Jones slurring, coughing, and saying 'I'm exhausted,' which Jared calls one of the funniest things he's heard.

- The hosts interpret Jones' physical deterioration—slurred speech and chronic coughing—as evidence of serious personal decline that undermines his credibility.
- Michael Edison Hayden compares Jones' deterioration to long-term substance damage and notes his voice sounds like he's smoked 'approximately 1,000 cigarettes.'
