I almost forgot about the election that saved comedy. Not the
presidential election. No, that doesn't really matter. We're still
gonna be at war with 7 countries and watch the rich get richer
and the poor get poorer regardless of who won that. I'm talking
about the Legion of Skanks election. I decided to run for the
president of someone else's podcast.
I'm Ari Shaffir, and I stand for Mayhem.
Every week, I would offer a different sacrifice at the alter
of comedy. And in return, the gods of laughs rewarded me with the
highest office in the land. During this recap, I didn't even
remember some of the best stuff that happened. There was way more
about this than I remembered while avoiding sheep poop. I forgot
making Derosa wait downstairs in the sweaty basement just to get
betrayed like a chump when he came upstairs. I forgot getting the
best celebrity endorsements and then getting Big Jay's family and
Luis's son to endorse me. Dave Smith's jerk of a daughter refused
to betray him. I forgot the lie detector. I forgot hosting the
debates and my announcement that I'd be running. I think I even
forgot that I wore a different suit all 8 times I came on. If you
want to watch the recap of the Skanks election, there's a 2 hour
video about it here that I'll link to on the YouTube video of this
podcast. I'll put a box link to it at the end of the video.
