From the Omnibus podcast featuring Ken Jennings and John Roderick. Fan account.
I went to Kentucky Fried Chicken and got a box of chicken and then ate it at the wrestling match. It’s one of my foundation events. It made me the man I am today. The first real holiday I spent away from my family. It really cemented what aloneness feels like.

The Allies were very famous for dropping containers full of weasels. It was one of the main strategies. Just fill the Netherlands with weasels.

I have a 2010 Nissan Cube, and it’s bright red and it looks like a clown car. So actually yeah, I do drive a comedy car, but I didn’t mean to.

It’s like a jackass filter. If you come to the house and push the doorbell and it doesn’t ring, it’s the same to me as if you didn’t come to the house. I don’t do anybody any favors.

Somebody’s filming every single thing. Can’t talk to your realtor, can’t TP a house, can’t sneak out at night. What is it like to grow up knowing you are constantly on camera?

I think that Colorado should absorb all the people who want to be somewhere they’re not and you can just be there and then we can fence it off.

One of the great things about TikTok is that although you can make longer videos, the ones that do really well are between 60 and 90 seconds. And as luck would have it, that’s just a little bit too short for a solution.

If you make me a desk and I hand you money for it and I get a desk, that feels like cool capitalism. I like that I don’t have to learn how to make desks.

He’s also demonstrated that he’s very litigious. So if at any point in this show I suggested that he was a wife-swapping furry, I want to say that I did not mean that at all.

He had always had this crazy idea of a pizza restaurant that also had video games. Obviously, he needed to go invent a whole industry first to make his pizza restaurant work.

Tyler vetoed it. He vetoed two bills to resurrect the Bank of the United States. Like, imagine if Obama vetoed Obamacare.

I think it’s not history repeating, it’s people just being the same. People don’t change. And so the deeper I get into this, the more I realize that I’m studying human nature. History is the study of the human condition.
