Today, Dan and Jordan discuss the recent deposition that Alex Jones had to give in his Sandy Hook lawsuit. Does Alex admit he still thinks there's something fishy about Sandy Hook? Does Alex's lawyer pick a fight with opposing council as a distraction? Does Alex accidentally reveal that he doesn't even care enough to know basic details about the shooting he's being sued for lying about? The answer to all these questions is yes.

Dan: I question my decision to intentionally not know the name of this attorney, this prosecuting attorney. But whatever. I made that decision and I'll stick by it. But I will say that he, whoever he is, probably never killed a guy.
Jordan: Almost certainly.
Dan: Now this guy he's questioning in this deposition, this guy? This Alex Jones guy? He probably, technically has killed a guy.
