Comments

I’m digging Anna’s song about the book at the end of the episode. I listened to it 2 or 3 times!

My dog Skittles

Hey Eli, totally off topic but awesome shoutout from Andi Gladwin on helping him out with the FU appearance. Really cool, man.

Liam Ferris

I would giggle at Murca’s Tot Gallent. BTW, who is MUD?

Gerald Lott

I am starting a grass roots campaign to lobby for bringing back Eli’s Trump voice for god. Tell me, who’s this? -racist -misogynist -vapid -fickle -capricious -rapist -maniacal -narcissist -inspired a fanatical cult following -undeniable influence on the past which should be ridiculed but never underestimated Yahweh or Donald?

Gerald Lott

Bad Heath! No acronyms for bad people RBG, FDR, AOC, JFK, MUD. No, no acronym for Marjorie Taylor Greene. No funny names, mean names, nothing for ever more it must be Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Fame and fortune guaranteed in the state of Tintucky

Some real Caro Emerald vibes from Anna's song today. Well done! Anna, you are a gem.

For reference on what you can report to VAERS one doctor tested it by submitting a report that a vaccine turned him into the Incredible Hulk and that claim was accepted into the system. So that’s all you need to know about how accurate the system it. Also 55 thousand Americans die every week so those numbers about the vaccines can and are being skewed by the fact that people just die after they’ve had a shot. It’s just going to happen

Eyjafjallajökull The Icelandic volcanoe

Two words for you Eli the next time this happens and the parent does nothing: Horse. Kick.

M.A. Ross

Love baseball. Can’t stand that they don’t use robo umps. Infuriating
