The Matt clips are the best!

Jaye BM's avatar

Absolutely thought they were exaggerating until that first clip. We gotta stan, go Matt go

Spencer's avatar

He was more inebriated than the Ben Dreyfuss episode.

Jake S's avatar

I hope that is the Matt I meet in Chicago

Trent Simpson's avatar

With enough Malort anything is possible.

Trent Simpson's avatar

This is why we need Matt to drink it

Bill Allen's avatar

Amen. Cheers to bullying!

Matt sounded *British* drunk - well done, sir. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

I only wish there was video.

Definitely got some "Ben Wyatt meets the media" scattered energy from those clips.

Matt stepped on snek...

Igor's avatar

Yeah, I'm never unsubscribing from this.

I have no idea what these show notes are saying, and I don't think whoever wrote them does either.

Dacia's avatar

I see what you did there.

Trent Simpson's avatar

I think Moynihan is still drunk from last night

Victor's avatar

Moynihan has a baseline BAC of .12, hopefully Matt didn’t try to go toe to toe with our favorite Irishman

That makes me think of that wonderful film Another Round: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40X5EX6Us7c

Amidst all the focus on Biden, everyone seems to have missed the biggest whiff of the night. When Trump was accused of sleeping with a porn star, he should have replied:

β€œSounds like what someone who hasn’t slept with a porn star would say.”

On the plus side, we did get to hear the immortal line, "First off, I didn't have sex with a porn star."

I know this is overdone by now, but imagine telling someone in the days of Gush v Bore that in a quarter of a century that line would be uttered in a presidential debate.

We are so much further along the Idiocracy timeline than anyone imagined possible.

Ok. I'll say it. Shitfaced Matt is kind of adorable. I would let him hang around for an hour after closing while I broke down the bar.

Matt Welch's avatar

I’m not mean!

Craig Mahoney's avatar

You sound like a very nice and cuddly drunk. I envy you! If I could say the same...

Victor's avatar

17 year old Matt is the guy every dad hopes their daughter brings home to dinner

Nathaniel Tull's avatar

I don’t know. Did you see those pictures Matt posted of himself in fire hose #97. He kinda looked like Gary Busey’s son, Jack, whom I had the pleasure of getting shitfaced with once. He’s almost as nutty as his dad.

Victor's avatar

Bro we grew up on Gary Busey you’re only selling it more

Jerry's avatar

Very disappointed a fifth column host would get drunk for a recording. Cancelling my subscription.

I’m the Robert Hur of this podcast. Release the tapes from last night!

Jess's avatar

10/10 insights from Matt. No notes.

Gabrielle G's avatar

Oh my god. Matt. What.

Sionann Monroe's avatar

I am victimized by Heather Cox Richardson posts (via friends)on Facebook constantly. I don’t know how or why she mesmerizes people the way she does.

Jim's avatar

Totally bizarre phenomenon. I think the responses to thar Biden one are telling. One highly rated comment was something like "I've been waiting for you to write this and say it's all ok"

I think she provides something like a nice cocoon or even womb for people who get too emotional about politics with her writing.

AH's avatar

Same! The gaslighting/stutter BS!!!!!

Trent Simpson's avatar

The comments are the post are even worse than the post itself!

GenKaos's avatar

Well said. Now how can we stop loons like HCR from spreading her brand of reality free unhelpful dreck?

Gordo's avatar

Give us the 542 episode!

God damn America and god damn it Matt!

Colin B's avatar

The people demand the full drunk Mattcast

Victor's avatar

I have a feeling it would give Biden a run for his money in the incoherent rambling department

Ben's avatar

Haven’t heard Welch that drunk in months

Julia's avatar

Drunk Matt was channeling oh so many of us on debate night. Thank you for your service Matt.

RELEASE THE MEIJER CUT.
