Leo Laporte Puts Jason C. Cleanthes (EffenDunn) In His Place

Scary weirdo, Jason C. Cleanthes
DERP

The scary weirdo that had a TWiT tattoo before he ever worked at TWiT — Jason C. Cleanthes aka EffenDunn aka EffenDumb — was finally put in his place by Leo Laporte.

You must first understand the timeline. Leo fired Chad and Jason Howell became his producer. Then Leo fired Mike Elgan and Jason Howell was “promoted” to hosting duties of the flagging Tech News Today.

This left Leo Laporte with no choice but to make EffenDumb his producer, where he fucks up daily.

Jason C. Cleanthes was a scary weirdo who resided in the #twitlive chatroom 24/7, as he does to this day, and as previously mentioned, got a TWiT tattoo. He begged Leo for a job long enough and Leo saw that the sad sack of a man had no better prospects. Let’s face it: not many talented people are willing to live in Peatluma and work for Leo Laporte (except for Anthony Nielsen).

EffenDumb has been taking more personal risks lately and has been giving himself a lower third for each show, when in reality, Leo clearly wishes he would shut the hell up. Watch Leo’s face any time EffenDumb breaks into a show to make a comment. Leo grimaces, but he can’t fire EffenDumb. Who would replace him?

They deserve each other; it’s hilarious.

      I bet they’d love to fire him.

      I am going to make a leap of faith and guess that he works cheap. (The guy has a TWiT tattoo and begged to work there) No surprise someone cheap is climbing the corporate ladder at TWiT.
      See Padre free labor model.
      Look for Owen JJ Stone to replace Padre.

      1. Good point. Owen JJ Stone Oh Doctah appears to be a do-nothing bum with no real means of support. Leo likes him for some reason and appears to not realize that his calling Leo “Uncle Leo” is a reference to Uncle Tom. So it’s quite possible that Leo could move Oh Doctah out to Petaluma, let him move into the Marin City ghetto and let him work for slave ages.

        Dynamite Plan.

    2. They’d better. He has all the characteristics of a unhinged serial killer. Full of himself. Gave himself a lower-third (dead giveaway). thinks he is interesting. Got the tattoo. He is going to one-day kill both Leo and Lisa and assume he’s the new host of everything and the boss. He’ll be shocked when he comes in and the police are there to arrest him.

        1. ‘The Fan’ an absolute bloody De Niro classic!

          FuckingDumb isn’t in that league, he’ll just fade away when Leo can’t take any more and will have his tattoo burned off with a laser.

      1. TwiT viewers will go onto the stream one day, and find a mid-30’s balding man hosting the show, wearing a skin mask of Leo’s face, and everything below the neck from what looks to be a late 40’s woman, with bad skin. The faint sound of “Goodbye horses” will be heard in the background, as he applies lipstick in a mirror and asks the horrified guests on Skype if they’d fuck him – because he’d fuck himself. Soft groans and a low, continuous keening that sounds like someone confronted with the gates of Hell come from off camera, and a dim figure of a man in a priest’s attire can be seen splayed spread eagled, impaled to a brick wall with the upper arm of a Segway, hands and feet tied with what looks to be cat5 cable.

        The stream will go dark after “The Tuck” dance starts, and SWAT teams break in through the doors and tackle him to the ground, the blood and tattered skin covered young man bellowing “It’s mine now! You can’t do this!! I have a tattoo!”

        Too much?

  1. Leo can not fathom a world where he is not the center of attention. His sarcastic “don’t you know I am the star” laugh is a tell.

    That said, Jason created a lower third for himself. That is so cute.

    Effendumb, I look forward to getting to know you better in the TotalDrama chatroom, after Leo fires you. Don’t worry brah, we are here for you.

  2. Not a fan of EffenDumb but fuck man, Leo is such a nasty piece of shit.

    Newsflash Leo, we don’t care about your god damn unboxing videos. You bought another camera to shoot snaps of your ugly tranny wife? Congrats!

    I wouldn’t care that he’s such a vapid money waster if he didn’t continually tell us he has to buy literally everything because it’s his job and he’s doing it for us. You do it because your life is meaningless Leo, please don’t pass it off as a favor for your listeners.

      1. No he’s not a winner. I am with knowledge I”m about to impart.
        Leo buys all that expensive shit & shows it on Twit because it becomes a tax write off. He gets all that stuff for free if he makes comment, critique or review about items. as the items then become a business expense.

        1. We know. Same with the Segway and his multitude of cars and almost everything else in his life. I can’t wait for the IRS to take him over the coals. His University of Phoenix bookkeeper turned CEO wife turning the finances into a tangled mess.

          1. But once he has reviewed it, and continues to use it, he has now received something of value from the LLC and needs to pay taxes on that.

            Where the fuck is the IRS when a fat slob needs an audit?

  3. Praise publicly, criticize privately,

    Leo should have asked him to mute the mics and counseled him. Although, Dunn would have had to have actually muted the mic for that to have worked.

    Leo has not people skills or managerial skills. He has apparently learned this from his new wife or maybe he taught her?

    Maybe Jason will wise up and quit? Wouldn’t that be great? Where would he go? Is TD hiring?

  4. > Then Leo fired Mike Elgan

    After leaving TWiT, Elgan keeps returning as a guest with Leo which suggests he wasn’t fired. Other facts suggest that he was fired.

    Saying unequivocally that Elgan was fired when such an assertion is only an educated guess at best is an instance of regression to the old, unlamented TD where truth and accuracy were routinely sacrificed for sensationalism and moronic, schoolboy humor.

    I don’t know why Elgan left TWiT, but neither does TD.

      Mike was fired. He is a Leo suckup and the ruse of him quitting helped him out as much as it helped Leo.

      He did not, lol, quit so he could travel. If he quit don’t you think they would have hired a replacement? It was a plan to save money along with the other show cancellations.

      1. There’s also the little fact that he isn’t traveling. He killed any goodwill he had with friends with his hobo like jaunt across the globe crashing in guest rooms. He was about as bad as a Syrian in Europe.

    2. Ofcourse he was fired. Elgan returns as guest because he’s living off handouts and eating at soup kitchens. Elgan is paid $500 to appear so there you have it., There’s no mystery at all to the returning Elgan guest appearances after being fired.

      IF he left, then that is when it would be unusual for him to return for guest appearances. You arent’ thinking logically

    1. When dada revealed its eternal wisdom to EffinDumb, EffinDumb laughed indulgently and went on talking. EffinDumb talks enough to make the very rats sick to their stomach.

  5. I’m with soup on this one. Effen is the guy who tries to be the center of attention and ends up making himself look foolish as a result. No one cares to hear him speak and he should know what his role is at the brickhouse.

  6. Between Lardo Laporke, Effendumb, and cow flatulence, I would think that cow flatulence would be the most interesting thing that could be streamed on the TWiT Network. And honestly, who cares what Leo is about to say because the crap that he spews is far more worthless than the value of the methane in a cow fart. Yea, Leo wants the camera and the mic on him all the time, but lets just say that always on camera and open mic have caused him more grief in the last 5 years than all the incidents created by his staff. Wait! All the indecency stuff was done by worthless fart breath Leo so he to protect his own network and his own name he should point the cameras in any direction than that of his narcissistic and egotistical self.

  7. Effendumb will eventually end up on the vast trash heap that is former twat employees. When he is eventually fired, he may connect with Gum and work as his researcher/producer for the Mike ElGum Show.

  8. This was almost as good as when LeFatFuck wined about Friar Tuck been shown too many times in a TWIT week gone by promo ( FatFuck Leo had 1 appearance yet Friar Tuck was showcased 3 times in that 2 min clip)
    Talk about being a cry baby, it has to be about him all the time ,
    LeoLaFuck: the day where no one will be watching or listening to u will come sooner than u think even your skanky ManTranny leech will turn on U

    grow up u clown, your glory days are over and have been the past 10years ,
    u steal reused tech news from other sites and add tons of ads that nobody wants, u spew misinformation without bothering to double check the stuff u stole that it might be wrong,
    u’r a broadcast joke
    start adding disclaimers that Samsung sponsors U when U’r trashing Microsoft or Apple (Samsung’s SmartThings) and the other sponsors indirectly supporting U who U forget to mention.

    Fuck you LeoLaFuck & ManTranny

    1. It’s not only that Leo regurgitates information he’s seen elsewhere that might be false, but also his assertions of controversial statements as if they were fact.

      Consider his statement on MBW this week that smartphones are not secure, and cannot be made secure. Leo isn’t a security expert, nor is he a cryptologist. The people who know what they’re talking about won’t make such bold claims.

      Leo insists that the NSA has a zero-day exploit for the iPhone, citing Edward Snowden. OK, perhaps that’s true, but it’s hardly a FACT, it’s a suspicion. Leo never mentions that data on a smartphone can utilize additional encryption, such as AES used in Signal or LastPass. I mean, what the fuck Leo? How do you expect to be taken seriously when you pass off your opinions as fact, but you have no knowledge upon which to base your opinions?

      And this is just ONE example, Leo practically does this on a daily basis.

      1. I totally agree with this. And let’s be honest, when Leo talks like this it’s just another expression of his bitterness with Apple. It’s the main reason I stopped listening, because there’s plenty to criticise apple on but he pretty much always uses false information to criticise them.

        He clearly knows nothing about iPhone security or, as you say, the potential for making it more secure – and you;l note that he spends much more time criticising iPhone security than he does android security on other shows.

        If you’re gonna talk about iPhone security in a period where there’s a big public debate about it, you need to be informed.

        Leo can’t be bothered to keep himself informed. About anything except shiny new boxes.

  9. EffenDumb isn’t even telling the correct version of the story, regarding the guy getting hacked.. But yet, he babbles on as if he’s talking about his ‘Burning Bush’ experience. with God.

        I was thinking the same thing but it looks like he’s had the site for a long time – there’s a post on it from 2014.

        If you want a real laugh, go to the page where Effingdumb publishes all the positive things people have said about him, his “testimonials” page.

        You’ll enjoy reading the content on that page.

        It’s empty… Same as TWiT’s comments, it’s either turned off( my guess ) or no one likes crap!!!
