The Three Whisky Happy Hour: Gonzo Hybrid-Reboot Edition

About this episode

This episode features a unique editing of two previous episodes, discussing legal issues and political commentary.

[CORRECTED AUDIO] We've had some gonzo episodes before, and a couple of trainwrecks, but this is the first-ever episode that is actually two episodes edited together, with sequence changes, new sound effects, canned insults from John, etc. I explained in a Substack post our technical difficulties that arose in the livestream, and here is the fix. Let us know what you think! In fits and starts we do cover some breaking legal developments, whether Israel has any hope of a libal action against the New York Times (which richly deserves it), the surprising statesmanlike bearing of President Trump, some surprising remarks on anti-Semitism from T.S. Eliot, and more. So here we go!
