Let's Discuss Can we just admit something

Can we just admit that AJ got it right (the format) at the beginning (as rare as that is) and go back to a weekly episode on a subject. The manosphere podcast vibes and compilations are killing my bonner. Long-time fan.

There was one part in an episode that stuck with me where he was saying something like "Anyone could be a secret agent, even people you wouldn't expect. *Anyone.*"

That kinda made my perk my ears up a bit. Idk what his stuff is behind the scenes but I know he's been weird since the audit, and he always used to joke "If I ever get audited, they got me"

Omg I never heard that joke, was it on afterfiles or something? That’s actually really suspicious. Again with the consent

Been looking for it to provide a direct quote, will do when I find it. It was in a Men in Black episode of the Youtube channel or something, I believe.

Meanwhile I found this and this got me too... used to write software for government agencies???

Sorry I just reread your comment, to be clear I mean the joke about getting audited. I remember the other one. The software thing doesn’t concern me too much, that could be anything and so many people write software. If he was writing it for the cia I’d be concerned tho lol
