Hello the Internet. My name is Jack O'Brien. I'm the
founder and former editor in chief of crack dot com
and the host of the new comedic news podcast The
Daily Zeitgeist, which, as the name suggests, is daily and
sporadically in German and our morals a former Trump ins
writer under witness protection, and I'll go about the oldest
whole thing. Oh cool, cool, coo coo cool. So so

(00:20):
why are you talking like that? Because I have to
protect by our good orgies And sorry, no way too much.
But you just said your full real name out loud. Ship.
You're right. I just felt like I had to impress
the audience because you had your whole cracked thing. And dude,
you are a lobbyist. That's pretty cool. Yeah, but I
was like a low level one. Being a co host

be joined by some of the smartest and funniest comedic
and journalistic minds around to bring you the hidden facts
and alternative analysis of the news stories blowing up your
phone every morning because the last probably have you feeling
like we're in the craziest, most violent period in US history.

nineteen seventy one and seventy two. It's just twenty four
hour news networks weren't around to tell you you should
be flipping out, so we all just kind of forgot.
Speaking of flipping out, did you know that dolphins swim
and even play while they were asleep? We'll tell you why.
That might have something to do with Donald Trump's late
night tweets. Really yes, really, well, I'm sold? Where do

(01:24):
I sign up? Just search the doolies right course, and
alpow podcast will listeners subscribe? You know they don't just
do that themselves. They have a voice modulator. It's a
thing they talk into. Wait, you thought everyone in Witness
Protection was just doing an impression of Buffalo Bill from

do the same impression. Episode one of the Daily Zeitgeist
