Well, here we are, again. Donald J. Trump is the 47th President of the United States, and he gave a very bleak, dark, strange, often meandering, and super, duper fucking awkward speech in the rotunda of the US Capitol on Monday to usher in the next four years. We initially decided we weren’t going to watch the speech, which was the absolute correct move on our part. However, then Jason had the brilliant idea of “what if we watched it at 2x speed, recorded our reactions to it, and put it out as a bonus episode?” and I said, “that’s a fucking awful idea Jason, I’m actually enjoying myself literally not doing that.” To which he replied, “yeah but we’re gonna do it anyway.” And you know what? He was right, because it was pretty weird, and we think our reactions to it are pretty funny. So, take a look at the video above, laugh, cry, scream, or just stare blankly into the abyss about it. And let us know in the comments what you thought of the speech, our reactions to it, or literally anything else!
That’s it for this special episode! If you loved watching and/or listening to it as much as we loved recording it, you can thank us by subscribing to the pod wherever you listen, following us over on New Old Twitter AKA Bluesky, subscribing to our shiny new channel on YouTube, and forwarding this email or sharing this post with your friends, your enemies, and your right wing uncle who flew all the way to Washington DC just to get snubbed by Trump and his merry band of oligarchs! THANK YOU so much for listening, and we’ll see you next time!
