Watch Matt Welch (and Jerry Springer!) Talk With Kennedy at the DNC

Facebook Live broadcast, also featuring Guy Benson, runs from 2-3 ET

Fox host and Reason bestie Kennedy has been bopping around Cleveland and Philadelphia, hanging out with wrestlers, co-hosting Outnumbered, and doing bits with Shepard Smith. She has also been hosting some Facebook Live hours, and from 2-3 ET today she's doing one from the Democratic National Convention featuring me, Townhall Political Editor Guy Benson, and (appropriately?) Jerry Springer. Enjoy!

We will throw up...

That happens a lot in Filthacrapia. The nausea will ease the farther - further - no, wait, farther you get from the city.

[SparktheRevolt]

You seem sane.

[Citizen X]

The pressure of being the first commenter in every thread will break a man, it is known.

[DenverJ]

It is known.

[Dennis, Constitutional Peasant]

Do you have a one-sentence explanation for your philly-hate?

I have managed to never develop much of an opinion.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Do people need to articulate the reason they hate turkey bacon, Comic Sans or Justin Bieber?

[Dennis, Constitutional Peasant]

....

no, because those things are self-evidently fucked up.

Philly would appear from a layman's perspective to just be a small-city with some grimy bits; i don't think it has a widespread reputation for being awful. does it? my experince is mostly having had friends there for ~8 years in the late-90s/early 2000s. (in college @Penn or Temple, often visited for Hollertronix parties). I never found anything super-objectionable. i think the thuggier parts help give it a little flavor. (I found nashville pretty boring for lack of any of that kind of seediness)

I am from the other side of Pennsylvania and Philadelphia fucks this state right up. Its politics, and not just the corruption, tilts the Commonwealth in an ugly, statist direction. Philadelphia sports fans are notorious, and I would despise them and their teams even if I wasn't required to do so as someone from Western PA. Icing on the cake was when the city tried to sweep me up in one of its many parking ticket schemes in which it sends out letters to random people in the hope they'll pay the fines to avoid the hassle.

If you find anything about Filthasmellia tolerable then you, sir, are part of the problem.

ah.

i'm a city-mouse from out-of-state, so (shrug). beats cincinatti, imo.

I have a buddy who opened a bar in pittsburg, and he always told me i'd love that city. never made it there before it shuttered, sadly.

[Chipper Morning Wood]

The only thing worse than Philly is Pittsburgh. I do love western PA, though.

[Citizen X]

"Ah'm Shepard Smith, and ah come from a small town full of secrets."

[Florida Hipster]

Run Matt! Jerry gonna tell you da baby daddy of Kennedy! It's you fool!

[Rebel Scum]

*refreshes page*

Dammit.

[Florida Hipster]

*places finger tips together*
Excellent.

Are we going to find out about Kennedy and Matt's illegitimate child?

[Chipper Morning Wood]

If the Guile Theme starts to play, Matt is in the clear.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

Wait, I just heard the church of LDS took responsibility for some attack in France... how'd I miss this?

[The Last American Hero]

You know who else killed a bunch of people in Normandy....

[Citizen X]

Hr?lfr Rognvaldsson?

[DenverJ]

William the Conquerer?

[Chipper Morning Wood]

The original Vikings?

[Dennis, Constitutional Peasant]

I think Crusty just lost a bet.

someone said (in the PM links yesterday?) there would be an ISIS attack in France within 48hrs

[Citizen X]

Whoever won, make sure you get a cashier's check. Crusty's personal checks contain obscene watermarks, and even if your bank will take them, tend to bounce, and if he tries to give you cash it will inevitably be sticky.

[Groovus Maximus]

I would suggest Crypto Currency (matches his cryptorchidism). Though, I have it on good authority that his Antminer is absolute drenched in goo... tests continue to be inconclusive as to the nature of the, ehrm, substance.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

Ectoplasm.

[Chipper Morning Wood]

ISIS is also claiming responsibility for the Cali wildfires and the coral bleaching in the south pacific.

[DenverJ]

I hear the church of LSD is funner.

[Chipper Morning Wood]

Because you were too busy expressing outrage about the knife attack in Japan that killed 15 people.

2:04.

Linky?

[FreeRadical]

WTF, at the end Kennedy said "that person is Jill Stein".

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

Reason is secretly in the bag for the Green Party.

Remember, Matt was embedded with Ralph Nader in 2000. That odor never goes away.

[Dennis, Constitutional Peasant]

WTF, at the end Kennedy said "that person is Jill Stein".

believe that was Kennedy executing a deft-rhetorical-judo move to fuck with Springer, whose patronizing bullshit was getting super-annoying. she threw something he didn't expect so as to shut him the fuck up for a second. It *barely* worked.

[Matt Welch]

This is the correct interpretation. Plus, she was teasing an interview for later.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

So Jerry Springer's endorsement of Hillary is "Wow, Trump is really bad..."

[Dennis, Constitutional Peasant]

Guy Benson - his sentiment is right w/ the purple tie/grey-jacket thing...but completely destroys himself with the button-down shirt and dark trousers.

Matt's tie is a thing of wonder and beauty. A+. i think brilliant-colors work great w/ charcoal suit, neutral shirt. (grey or white)

i heard springer talk for about 10 seconds, and i feel like i need to take a peroxide-shower w/ a brillo-loofa to clean the slime off.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

Guy Benson - his sentiment is right w/ the purple tie/grey-jacket thing...but completely destroys himself with the button-down shirt and dark trousers.

He's also 11 yrs old.

[Dennis, Constitutional Peasant]

he'd actually look *older* if he got rid of the tie and wore a sportcoat and jeans. instead he looks like vincent adultman

I will never accept the button-down collar. As I've said before, it is the training wheels of dress shirts.

[Dennis, Constitutional Peasant]

I will never accept the button-down collar. As I've said before, it is the training wheels of dress shirts.

its not really a dress-shirt at all.

its more of a business casual thing. its like, 'school-teachers & detectives'-wear. for people who wear ties, but mostly in a perfunctory manner.

there's nothing wrong w/ it. i just think its easy to screw up your look by mixing it in when you're otherwise trying to look more-formal and sharp. i wore them all the time sans tie when i could get away with it (save on drycleaning). I actually like the way they look w/ a sportcoat & no tie better than dressier shirts.

[Matt Welch]

Once again, it was the emergency-Vegas-tie syndrome.

[Dennis, Constitutional Peasant]

i like that blue striped thing better than the older solid-cyan, or the light-blue striped one. it pops.

[Dennis, Constitutional Peasant]

Also, matt = i really admire your publication, whatever its called. great stuff kid.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

"We have now just watched our shared dream unveil, becoming a reality" the Solar Impulse team said in a blog post. "Emotions, tears, relief, exhilaration is what we are all feeling right now after completing the first Round-the-World solar flight in history."

So what you proved is that if you want to use photovoltaic solar to get anywhere, your craft will be light, rickety, carry no cargo or passengers and go about 68 miles per day, max.

Final thoughts: They obviously weren't broadcasting in an area with air conditioning.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

The Dems put their money where their mouth is on mitigating climate change.

[Matt Welch]

Untrue. However, it is one billion degree outside, and the menfolk weren't wearing makeup.

[Chipper Morning Wood]

Final thoughts? Oh no, Fisty, don't do it! Hang in there, it gets better.
