I think this is the first time they've really ripped into a previous guest - the only other one I can think of was Andrew Yang but he seems to be in a different category somehow.

Anyways, thought their letting loose and ripping into her was some of the best Chapo times in a while. And Matt made some genuinely hilarious contributions to the show this time, feels like he's actually starting to come back to normal in a way I haven't heard before where he seems to struggle to keep up.

Oh wow, is Matt back? I haven't listened in awhile. I assumed he was still recovering. That's great to hear he's starting to do better.

Yeah he's been back for almost a year. He's still not on most eps and when he is he's often pretty quiet. Still clearly struggling for sure but like I say he seems to be getting better.

He also started writing poems they sometimes close the shows with in a segment they call "Strokes of Genius". One of my favourite Matt lines came from one over the winter: if I don't have a piece of the pie, why do I care whose thumb's in it?
