I found this podcast because of Darryl Cooper. I had never heard of Scott Horton, and oh do I wish I could go back to those days. Horton is not as smart as he thinks he is. He constantly talks over Cooper, and he’s always looking to shill his books, his stickers, or some other garbage product during each show. I have never heard someone as impressed with themselves as Horton. He loves himself (does he own a mirror?); he name-drops constantly (no one cares); he fancies himself a comedian (he’s not). His most annoying habit is when he speaks in absolute terms about a subject, trying to sound like an authority, but he can’t remember important details about it... he will hem and haw for a while before saying something like “oh, I can’t remember, but it doesn’t matter. You get my point.” He will do this and Cooper will sit in silence, waiting for the obnoxious Horton to take a breath so he can try to squeeze a word in.
Why Cooper is wasting his time with Horton, I do not know. If you want to give this show a chance, prepare to be annoyed often. I thought it was just growing pains and they would work out the issues. Nope. Obnoxious Scott Horton is the problem, and he’s not changing. His behavior is a feature, not a bug of the podcast.
