—The Makers of Tiger King are back, and they’ve got another lunatic to follow.


Maybe these people aren’t as captivating as Joe Exotic, but they’re ask passionately dumb as he is, and possibly worse.


At least the Tigers had room to roam at Exotic’s location; the chimpanzee’s in episode one of this doc are caged in small rooms. 


It’s sad, but hopefully you can see past that and enjoy the ride of watching insane people do and say insane things.


—Last week, Jake & nathan discussed what a d-bag Jesse Waters (of Fox News) is.

This week, though they stand by their truthful statement about Jesse being a complete a-hole, they actually defend him.


When insulting Kamala Harris, Jesse said that in a military situation briefing room, Generals would “have their way” with Kamala.


Meaning, to anyone with a half a brain cell watching, they’d walk all over her.


Everyone should have easily understood that, but the hair on fire, perpetually offended crowd turned it into something sexual, and ugly.


God, can’t you crybabies just shut up?


You made us defend Jesse Waters.

Do you know how awful you must be in order for that to happen?


—What celebrities are endorsing Trump? What about celebrities for Harris?


Here’s an idea: who cares?


The only thing people should find interesting is the fact that 40 of Trump’s 44 cabinet members will not endorse him.


That should make an impact on people, and hopefully it does, but the dumbest of the dumb cultists don’t care.


—NFTs are back, baby!


Two weeks ago, it was the Trump $2 bill.


Last week, the “FIGHT!” Trump bobblehead.


This week, Trump is offering more $99 NFTs for his followers to collect. 


But not just hilarious images of him as a hero, no.


If you spend enough money, you’ll get a swatch from the suit he wore in the famous final Biden debate.


How awesome is that?


—In the end, what difference did we make?


Two months shy of twenty years, $2.313 trillion dollars spent, 20,769 wounded, and 2,459 dead.


Those are a few of the tallies regarding the Afghanistan war.


And last week, the Taliban—which took power again almost immediately after withdrawal—reinstated the most draconian of their anti-woman laws.


Yup.


Idiots on Parade: we mock the news, so you don’t have to.


Tune in and get your giggle on.
