    I’ve never made that connection. I thought he was just a lunatic who played it up for his fans.

    Do you think he’s actually drugged out?

      There are definitely times when it seems like he’s had a hit of something during commercial breaks. He’s often drunk on air (and drinks during the show) so it’s certainly possible.

      Edit: I just listened, he’s drunk on air during this episode. And the headline is a quote from Steve Bannon, bit misleading.

      I saw a video of alex jones from the early 90s. He was doing some local nothing story about how a road had too steep of a slope, and needed a guardrail to stop busses from slipping.

      He was calm. He was much much thinner, and he wasn’t spewing bullshit. One line I found ironic is, he was illistrating a point how a bus could have difficulty getting up in the winter, and if an accident happened, that bus would slide right off the edge. And he says something to the effect of “Just look at this angle, and imagine what it’s like in winter. Covered in ice, maybe even black ice. One mistake in those conditions would make a bus full of children slide off the edge, and suddenly dozens of children and the bus driver could be seriously hurt, or worse. Nobody wants to see that.”

      Then he talked about how he campaigned for a barrier wall, but was told he’d be lucky to get a guard rail.

      Fast forward to today, and he’s talking about gay frogs, and conspiracies and other various bullshit. It’s like two different people.

        From saving kids to terrorizing their parents. What a friggin arc.

        Still wonder if it’s heavy drug use or heavy pandering…

        Thanks for sharing.
