Me On CBC!
I had a fun conversation with CBC Day 6 about getting kicked off Twitter for making Elon mad! My segment starts around 12 minutes in. I do some DRAMATIC READINGS OF TWEETS. Also it turns out I say "oh gosh" a lot???

You got kicked off Twitter? Congratulations!
Finally got a chance.to listen to the podcast! Jeph, you sounded very intelligent and had some great thoughts/arguments against any single entity having that much influence over our ability to cyber-interact.
What a way to go out 😂 You’ve done some excellent work
No chance of a transcript, I guess? I ~can't~ shouldn't listen to podcasts at work.
No transcript, no speed control, radio host talks slow ... sorry, I'm gonna pass. Hope it was fun.
Jeph, your Musk drove me crazy! Thank you for last weekend...
At the end of the day, Elon is still a billionaire and you are not. All I’m seeing and hearing from you is a whiny child. It’s his money and his company and he’ll do with it what he wills.
you do know that no matter how hard you suck Musk dick he still won't give you your very own million dollars, right?
what a great interview! your voice is also really fantastic, i'd listen the hell out of a podcast of yours

I had to listen to your bit. I heard it summarised as (and I reckon, if you were able to get away with it, you would have said) "Musk is a crybaby and he can go eat a bag of dicks".
lol I was loving your tweets while they lasted. Thanks for the great followup on what happened once the twitter police caught up with your rampage :D
I don’t know what I was expecting you to sound like, but hot was a surprise
You made him so mad!
I assume you say ‘oh gosh’ exactly like goofy and I refuse to listen and break the illusion.
I’m picturing a late someone famous’ dead perfect Mouse impersonation & Jeph doing an “Air Pirates” adventures …
You should do a podcast or something. Your voice is fantastic and you speak very well.
Legend.
The Muskrat believes in absolute freedom to be exactly what he thinks you should be.
Huh. Turns out that Musk doesn’t believe in “absolute freedom” when it comes to Twitter. Hypocrite.
Haha, awesome interview and good on you for using your platform to make a point 😆
Thank you Jeph, for being one of the highlights of my day.
Never have I been so proud of my Patreon subscription. ❤️ Love what you did here!
Sad that I won't see pictures of your pointy-headed dog, though.
"I never found out Grimes real name" was 🧑🏻🍳💋
You left the hellbird in a blaze of glory, and the site is less for it, but you are not.
Mastedon?
Open source, distributed Twitter alternative.
I created a Mastodon (mstdn.party) account today. Literally the first person to follow me: Neil Gaiman. Beat that, Elon!
Oh, no; that's not a good flex these days. It's turned out that old mate Neil doesn't have such a great understanding of how consent works...
That was a really interesting chat :) I think i'll be deleting twitter too, it's my primary news source for webcomics and artists, but i can adapt. Did make me LOL at your supreme trolling though :)
Yeah a lot of people get banned for impersonating someone else, not just Musk Unfortunately all it does it buffer, can't play it
It's nice that they had the Grimes line as the stinger for the entire episode too! :D
Awesome!! You did great. (So stoked that you got on Day 6; that’s such an excellent show.)
Yeah, you do have a good radio voice. But your overuse of "oh gosh" – which I didn't notice – reminded me of the one time I was on TV. I was a reporter for a suburban daily. I'd been asked by the local community cable folks to interview an author. I didn't think it went badly when I left the studio. But watching the cablecast, I learned I wrinkled my nose. A lot! Yuk!
That was a fun listen. Good job, Jeph!
Oh gosh, that was a good interview.
Oh Garsh!
Great segment, never actually herd your voice before even though I’ve been following Q.C. since the early 2000’s. Heck, I remember commenting on posts back on your live journal page.
Well done, Jeph! (Good radio voice, too, BTW.)
Someone captured them https://twitter.com/exclamate_/status/1589426189579747328?t=Vv6H_fbTpE8y_cpAxvbRLQ&s=19
Well that was a fun little interview :) That being said... "Jeph Jacques is a cartoonist and writer." Couldn't even plug your comic for ya? Rude.
Please tell me someone saved the tweets to the wayback machine
I have a set of screenshots. I know others have been saved.
Awesome! Gosh, what a well-spoken fellow you are. (Not being sarcastic or ironic, you have a great radio presence)
I did not read all the tweets. Did you do one about having to change the kids' names every 90 days?
CBC and Questionable Content? I love everything about this!
Questionable Broadcasting Corp
You're the hero we need AND deserve
That was a wonderful listen. Thank you for your service.
Good interview! I was sad that you didn't read your "I drink pee" tweets on air 🤣
they made it clear I was not supposed to read the dirty ones, lol
NGL, I didn't know your last name wasn't the French pronunciation.
yeah it's weird, I don't correct people either bc i'm lazy
Quick, Jeph! Do you happen to have an old DeviantArt account that you no longer use? Their current AI opt-out shitshow seems like it's just asking for a similar treatment...
You'd think a guy who positions himself as some sorta internet super genius would be able to predict how people would abuse the paid verification system.
You can close the pop-up box, then click on the "Segments" tab and from there find "Nov. 12, 2022: Cartoonist Jeph Jacques quits Twitter by impersonating Elon Musk" to find the bit.
Gosh!
If nothing else, the Musk tweets were the catalyst that finally got me to sign up for Patreon after 15(?) years of reading your comic for free
Same here. For me it's been 12 years

I just realized that the NPR affiliate I work for here in Houston airs Day 6, so a good chunk of Houston, Tx got to hear you too!
Wow!!
This is AMAZING!
Wonderful!
