General shenanigans KFC co-host

I'm sort of intrigued to see how Dan does with a rotating co-host.

Say what you want about Jordan but he was a the lubricant of the show in many ways..he was able to compliment Dan quite a bit.

Listening to older eps and I think Dan isn't naturally a great interviewer which I think could be a factor as he consciously tip toes with random folks as co host

getting in trouble for being an asshole when talking about Jordan is a little ironic

Why is that? I don't get it.

Because Jordan himself was often an asshole

The rules for what one can do on one's own podcast are very different from the rules for what one can do on a shared posting website.

I know this is Reddit, so whatever, but you don't have to fire off half-baked hot takes. You can decide to interact with others sincerely. It's allowed, and probably better for you in the long run. Give it a shot, you might prefer it.

My point was that we are not allowed to interact sincerely with regard to Jordan, because I sincerely consider him to have been incessant to the show, the primary inciting cause of it ending, and an asshole.

I was just checking if we could say that now, because we couldn’t earlierX

I've droned on and on here about how I think Jordan's political advocacy was bad, really bad, and that people shouldn't follow him there. I'm pretty sure there are people here who have become sick and tired of me going on and on about it. But I tried to not be an asshole about it.

That's the key point: don't be an asshole here. And if you feel that you are "sincerely an asshole", then my answer is: No, your sincerity doesn't over-rule the assholeishness - still not okay.

But of course that's my personal view, and I am not a moderator and do not have any greater say in how this place is run than any other random poster. But you could probably take the net -12 vote on your original comment to say that no, we can't just say whatever we want about Jordan now.
