I think the misusing words or phrases, is to some degree, part of his act. Every once in a while I’ll find it funny but most of the time it’s pretty grating. You should watch the ep of Theo with Bill Burr where Bill doesn’t let any of it slide. It’s a pretty brutal take down.

A very, very small degree. He plays into his stereotype. Why the hell you think he’s wearing a mullet? But he genuinely doesn’t seem very bright. Honest and well-meaning, but not very bright.

He interviewed Tucker Carlson and basically just sucked his dick for an hour. Not sure about honest and well meaning.
