Did Joey the scar kick someone off the show this morning?

They had Spiro Agnew's White house council on and they ask his thoughts and he spoke for a couple of minutes (if that) and then Joey interrupted and they switch to a different guest and then Agnew's council was gone. I was half asleep.

2. I was only half watching, but I think he got bleeped twice. So maybe his language was the issue?

Scab seemed dismissive and even rude towards him and the attorney didn't seem totally "with it" so I am not sure what happened.

would be like bringing Elizabeth Taylor on to give marital advice, or having a chicken talk about the correct temperature of the oil in a KFC restaurant.

"Nattering Nabobs of Negativism" sounds almost erudite next to "Fake News!"

little or no purpose. He seemed quite confused and Joe did the right thing, humoring him and then moving on.
