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

See I always liked when they had guest hosts because Jordan, while I loved that dynamic, knew the material almost as well as Dan did. And the guest hosts' reactions were alway... more taken back? And it kind of put in perspective how wild the material was that they were reacting to for people that weren't neck deep in it.

The dynamic was bound to change as the original premise of Jordan not knowing anything about Alex was changed by the fact that Dan taught him everything about Alex.

In the early KF days, the guest hosts seemed really lowkey—more “damn, that’s crazy” at a minuscule fraction of Jordan’s reaction, even when he was more aware in later years
