**WARNING: ADULT LANGUAGE AND POLITICAL SATIRE** Cool Hand James is one of my favorite comedy creators on YouTube. He has a bloodhound's sense for grifters, and a laser-sharp targeting system on their scams. Plus a gravelly voice, a thick British accent, deadpan delivery, and a devil-may-care attitude for calling out creatures of the online ecosystem that monetize attention through manipulation. Yes, I laughed, a lot. But James also got me thinking about how easy it is to take people seriously online who shouldn't be taken seriously at all. In our conversation we discussed: His background, and how he became a comedic commentator The definition of grifting, and some examples like Tim Pool, Jack Murphy, Matt Walsh, and others The differences between American and UK politics Ukraine, Germany, and the EU Why he's a fan of trans women and not the 19th Amendment The story of how he got banned from YouTube for cyberbullying the president of the United States, Joe Biden.  CONNECT WITH COOL HAND JAMES https://www.youtube.com/@coolhandjames https://twitter.com/coolhandjames0 MEETUP WITH ANNELIESE / FEMININE NOT FEMINIST https://renofmen.com/meetup Saturday, April 15 3-6pm at the Bottle & Bean in Chandler, AZ SPONSOR - REFORMATION COFFEE Hand-roasted in small batches within two days of your order, from a Reformed pastor in Springfield, Missouri with 15 years of roasting experience. http://reformationcoffee.com Entercode SUBFREE to get a free bag with a new monthly subscription.
