after his 30 (actually 32) days off the grid do not bother. Adam Carolla butchered the Afghanistan recap almost as badly as Biden butchered the Afghanistan withdrawal. Didn't even tell Rubin that Biden gave the Taliban a list of Americans, green card holders, and Afghan interpreters to find. Didn't mention Biden looking at his watch or droning on about his son while talking to the bombing victims parents at Dover.

He also spent ten minutes talking about that stupid racist rock in Wisconsin instead of telling Dave about the Australian government going full Nazi over Covid. The absolute worst debriefing episode Rubin has done (through no fault of his other than his choice of debriefer) and I have watched all of them.

Can confirm. I listened to the first 30 minutes. Couldn’t take anymore of Carolla’s terrible job of what should have been easy: coherently present the facts in a sequential timeline. Let Rubin react and respond.
Instead Carolla meandered all over the place with mixed information and opinion.

I love Adam, but he spent only 20 minutes on what is going on in Afghanistan. You can’t understand the situation in Afghanistan in 20 minutes. The whole thing should have been on what’s going on in Afghanistan.

Should have gone with Michael Malice to do it. That’d be great.

Or failing to show this tweet from their mutual friend Sam Harris. That’s when Dave would realize how serious this is when Sam Harris admits he fricked up on something in regards to Trump:

And just got to the part where Dave is more shocked by Cuomo resigning than what is going on in Afghanistan. Bringing that up, as much as I despise Andrew Cuomo, would not come to my mind on things to bring up with him with last month’s insanity. It would have just been Afghanistan and showing him what’s going on in Australia in regards to Covid. Adam did a piss poor job explaining to Dave what is going on.

EDIT: He talked about it, but didn’t show him the video of the bodies falling from the skies or that Biden retreated for a week to Camp David and then said this about that:
