Get-Me-Through-the-Weekend Links: Kmele Does Coleman, Moynihan Catches Another Fraud, Writing Person Writes
As we all await the mysteries of will-they-or-won’t-they-post-an-episode, here are your regularly scheduled links to what the fellas have been up to since last Friday:
* Kmele went on the podcast of former guest (Episodes 121, 144, 181, 188, 201) Coleman Hughes, though you’ll have to subscribe to listen early to anything more than this clip. Chris Rufo is reportedly discussed.
* Moynihan appeared in the pages of his former employer The Daily Beast, in connection with the ongoing implosion of Ozy, first precipitated by former guest Ben Smith (#125, #227), and discussed in the back half of Episode 331:
[A] quote on the front page of an Ozy promotional packet, titled “Ozy Magazine,” touted Watson as “the best interviewer on TV”—a quote attributed to Deadline, a prominent entertainment industry trade publication.
But Vice News Tonight correspondent Michael Moynihan pointed out that the quote was actually made by Rao—the Ozy executive who impersonated a YouTube boss—in an interview with Deadline, which Ozy then attributed to the influential trade pub anyhow.
* I did the True Story With Mike Slater program on The First (for around 5 minutes beginning at minute 40, if you want to see how lousy my home office & hair look), plus the usual Reason Roundtableage, writing (Biden-hyperbole, numbers-hiding, Harrison Bergeronning) and audio reads thereof.
That's it! Enjoy the weekend, and keep your eyes & ears alert for related content....
