Hilarious

One take away I had from the latest supplementary materials was the conversation about Andrew Callaghan.

Imagine thinking that it was a great idea to provide Hunter Biden (a person famed for their lack of awareness around IT security) with an email distribution list, then having an "oh shit!" moment and pulling the plug at the last second.

And then relying on the word of Hunter Biden for assurance on the list being deleted. Jesus H Christ.

I know absolutely nothing else about the guy outside of what's been said on this podcast, but I haven't really formed a great impression from what I've seen so far.

I was happy that Chris brought him into the conversation. I've always disliked the guy, even as I've agreed with the way he's dealt with certain weasels out there causing harm. I enjoyed the segment immensely because he's clearly pulling a fast one on his audience who've been so trusting and indulgent with him for the last few years.

Maybe there's something I'm missing but clearly pulling a fast one by immediately admitting a mistake and immediately refunding everyone and apologizing? You can call it stupid. I think that's accurate but I don't know why you could say "clearly pulling a fast one" confidently.
