Had to leave this here, since he's such a dear friend to the podcast and all:p
He's dating a 19 year old......one comment likens him to Harvey Weinstein with hair https://www.instagram.com/p/BlF2guAB..._web_copy_link *ETA: obviously I have no clue how to embed an IG post on the forums, apologies. |
Mike Cernovich is a pizza-gater and an actual rapist who dug up the Gunn tweets.

I like what Jim Norton has to say about political correctness and comedy. It's a difficult area & maybe he's too black & white but I'd rather err on the side of free speech.
Side note - this caused me to seek out Marina's appearance on KATG, which was hard to hear. But we've all changed a lot in 8 years - I wonder if she'd consider coming back on. And finally, some spot-on satire from Ricky Gervais. |
You can be edgy and tell all the offensive jokes you want to push the envelope about rape, pedos, race, etc.
But you cant also expect to work for Disney. Or any other company that has a family oriented or child-centric image to maintain. That's just part of the sacrifice you have to make when you go down that lane. |
Digging the beard Keith. Has it started to itch yet? Using anything on it?
|
DELETE YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA.
It's simple, can something good come from an online troll with infinite free time scrolling through anything you've ever said on the internet? no. Can something bad come from it? yea, that's pretty likely. These celebrities deserve to be fired, maybe not for what they said but for not having the common sense to know that they work for multi billion dollar corporations that don't care about their artistic integrity. |
Chemda, what a beautiful closing of the episode. I know I’ve said it before but the KATG community has been a major influence in my life over the past decade (more actually.) From virtual hand holding through divorce to hearing Chemda talk about how she grew up (sincerely that stuff really really helped me in my parenting approach w my daughter) to learning about drugs :) and relationship help to getting going-back-to-school advice (just yesterday I had a long phone convo w a KATG forums member on educational and career advice!) to getting sober (Keith we’re both coming up on one year next month!) to just checking out at work or having a good laugh at really dirty shit I can’t tell anyone about. (How are we all imagine the logistics of pissing into an asshole?)
Also it’s just nice to have dialogue on the regular, even though I’ve never met any of you face to face I’m really happy we are all here. Muah! MOVIE NIGHT! MOVIE NIGHT! |

Also the sheer number of kid fucking joke tweets this guy had is crazy and not very funny. I'm so sick of people being like "but it's for the comedy. I'm pushing the edge" Yeah we all say horrible shit, but we're also aware that maybe I should stick with the tame traffic jokes at work and save the kid fucking material for my private text threads. |
