Beto O'Rourke, Cult of the Dead Cow Writings
The hosts defend Beto O'Rourke against media reports highlighting a fictional story he wrote as a teenager for the "Cult of the Dead Cow" hacking group. The story, which involved a fantasy about hitting children with a car, is characterized by the hosts as a "douchey" piece of juvenile fiction rather than evidence of psychopathy. They also note that Reuters reportedly held the story until after O'Rourke's Senate race.
