Case File 88 with Lowtax of Something Awful

Internet legend Lowtax joins us this week! The creator of Something Awful, Gaming Garbage, and Murder the Internet lends us his many years of online outrage expertise to help dish out divine justice to those who mildly annoy us. Support the show on Patreon It's Halloween time. So get ready for an influx of skeleton gifs and "2 spoopy" culture that's almost too cute to step all over, but fuck it, that's why we're here. To take a page out of Kleenex's book: this episode is Man-Sized. Lawsuits against comedians have been all the rage this year, and now fellow podcast host (yes we just held you in the same regard as us) Will Menaker of Chapo Trap House is being sued by former Trump Adviser Jason Miller for likening him to a "rat face baby killer." We can't determine if that meant he looked like he killed rat-faced babies, or if he was a baby killer who had a rat face. I suppose it doesn't matter. It's a bad time to be a nameless character wandering around a town in a JRPG, because twitter has begun banning the "NPC meme". If you told me this sentence a year ago, I'd laugh. If you told it to me today, I'd cry. Did I do it on the episode? Listen and find out. Oh yeah. We talk about Gritty. Thanks to everyone who left us a voicemail: 312-788-7361.
