“Here’s what all those fat cats in Washington don’t want you to know!”

All those dumb fucks still act the same when they’re the fuckfaces running everything. Guess what, asshole: you are the establishment now.

Who the fuck wants to sit and listen to that voice in podcast form for hours on end?

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 2 points 12 hours ago

Start with your own

[–] DeathsEmbrace@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

Woah you can't steal a plot line from The Boys. Unoriginal

[–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Had to double check this wasnt Not Not the Onion

[–] thatradomguy@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

If he's so sure that he can "expose" these "lies" he knows so much about, why doesn't he publish something that, you know, actually proves using research and actual science other than him going on a monologue about how he thinks he can actually compare apples to oranges?

a podcast by a man that sounds like a garbage disposal full of chicken bones. just what we need.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 2 points 14 hours ago

I should not listen to this but I kinda feel its going to be really funny.

[–] quick_snail@feddit.nl 15 points 1 day ago

So he's writing his own deposition, which will be quoted from during his future criminal trial?

The only person who's voice I want to hear less than trump is rfk

Wow all good answers. I submit: Ben Shapiro.

[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 2 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

If we could somehow meld their three voices into one it would be the most cursed thing ever.

This is an acceptable use for AI.

[–] etherphon@piefed.world 24 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Sucks because he does have some good ideas but they're totally lost in the sauce with his other craziness, there are a LOT of problems with the American diet and health but this is not the fucking guy.

[–] Exatron@lemmy.world 17 points 22 hours ago

Any seemingly good ideas he has fall into two categories- the right idea for very wrong reasons or wellness nonsense with no scientific basis.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 30 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The good ideas he has feel like a stopped clock situation, honestly.

It’s like talking to someone who’s WAY too into wellness and crystals and “energy” - some particular aspects of their life are probably WAY healthier than the average bear, but taking it all together makes you say “what the actual fuck? Are you serious?”

[–] etherphon@piefed.world 13 points 1 day ago

Yeah haha, that's why it sucks so bad, he's like the first guy in such a high position to bring up psychedelics, but he's also batshit crazy so it's not a good look. Ugh.

"I did crack off a toilet seat"

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 3 points 18 hours ago

Whomst among us, etc

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 1 points 14 hours ago

crack kills buddy. use a condom.

Does he know he can just call a press conference basically whenever as HHS secretary? Cabinet members don’t have to launch podcasts, they can just say stuff over a podium and actual professionals will make a bunch of podcasts for them out of the audio.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 44 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yeah but this way he can profit more from the same words.

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Podcasts also have a very intimate quality that creates connection and credibility in its listeners, that’s why the medium creates cult like followings. Shit it’s basically the same gimmick as FDRs fire side chats

[–] harmbugler@piefed.social 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

A cosy fire, and the dulcet tones of RFK jr.

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago

I just shivered in disgust, well done

[–] Paragone@lemmy.world -4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I hope he never clues-in that he could do-so!

He may simply be too retarded to understand the leverage he has.

That is a Good Thing.

You could do it without the slur.

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

c/aneurysmposting

Lara Trump, Katie Miller, RFK, the Trumpy boys, etc.

All while CBS and other organizations are being taken over by Trump's stooges.

They want to be the media.

[–] stumu415@lemmy.zip 54 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Include topics like how a worm in brain makes everything better. How to fuck a whale for potency and liver from a freshly shot bear helps cure diabetes.

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

He's just ripping off the Brain Slug platform...

Ironically titled "RFK Exposes Himself" to bring in all the closeted republicans

ASMR for when you want to stay awake.

Medicine: An Oral History

Is it gonna talk about every single thing he's said the last 20 years?
