This week, we take a look at the group of nitwits so vapid and disgraceful they could only come up with their own nicknames, the Intellectual Dark Web. Coined by Eric Weinstein in 2017 because nobody would let him and his brother join their club even though they were unquestionably way cooler than all those other kids, the IDW came to prominence and them promptly ate itself between 2018 and 2019, living on only in the hearts and minds of people who like boring podcasts and live streams of facial moles.
Thanks as always for listening and enjoy the show!
