This week on Buffoonology 101, we present a matchup that might best be described as cringe meets conviction. Our contenders? Hunter Biden and George Santos—two certified buffoons, each with a criminal record and each who we should keep far away from microphones. One is heading to prison, while we wish the other one had gone! But, both can’t seem to stay out of the headlines, deciding it was a good idea to go on a podcast and let the buffoonery flow freely.
So this week, we’re breaking down a battle of dueling delusion, denial, and just an unfiltered ego. Buckle up.
But before we tackle these titans of stupidity, let’s finish up some business from last week’s vote
You Chose Our First Republican Buffoon of the Week!
For the first time in Buffoonology 101 history, you have chosen a Republican as the Buffoon of the week. Pam Bondi, who Ross Galloway picked, got nearly 61% of your vote. Meanwhile, disgraced ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo can’t buy himself a win in any election. This was the second time Cuomo came up short in our polls, and the third time up this year he lost an election, earning a paltry 39.2%.

Ross’s Nominee: Hunter Biden Goes Nuclear—And Profane
Ross’s nominee this week is convicted felon Hunter Biden, who was pardoned by his father, former President Joe Biden, who decided to gift the internet with one of the most profane, delusional, and flat-out bizarre podcast interviews in recent memory.
In a rant-filled sit-down with Andrew Callghan, Hunter took aim at just about everyone—including people against illegal immigrants, fellow Democrats, and the media—dropping more F-bombs than Jason Mewes in Dogma. Did he kiss his dead brother’s wife with that potty mouth?
Ross highlighted how Hunter’s elitist screed about the anti- illegal immigration crowd revealed more than just tone-deafness. His comments veered into outright arrogance and exposed an ugly undercurrent of what some on the left really think behind closed doors.
As if that wasn’t enough, Hunter flirted with foreign policy fantasy, suggesting he’d invade El Salvador if he were president. And, he capped it all off by trashing figures like George Clooney, James Carville, and Jake Tapper—and even offered his take on how to cook crack cocaine.
Not a joke, folks.
In Ross’s view, Hunter hit the buffoon trifecta: he was repulsive, delusional, and absolutely hilarious. That earned him one of the highest-ever scores on the Sharpton Buffoonery Matrix.
Hunter Biden earned a lofty spot on our Sharpton Buffoonery Matrix™ which is our visual representation relating a nominee’s Buffoonish Nature (BuN) to his/her Buffoonish Action Magnitude (BAM.)
- BuN: 85 (He went full Hunter. You should never go full Hunter.)
- BAM: 7.7 GigaSharptons™ (He damn near covered every category of political buffoonery!)
Gene’s Nominee: George Santos Whines About Prison – and Fillers
Gene countered with a familiar Botox-filled face to our viewers: disgraced former Congressman George Santos, now a convicted felon who had been awaiting the start of his prison sentence. While Hunter Biden melted down in political rage, delivered his own brand of buffoonish crash-out—this time in the Sources Say podcast where he lamented the loss of control and worried aloud about being assaulted behind bars.
Gene nominated Santos not for his past financial crimes, fraud, untruths, and otherwise abhorrent behavior, but for his bizarre pity party farewell tour. In the interview, Santos whined about being denied a tablet to continue writing behind bars, and compared himself (unfavorably) to Martha Stewart. He even claimed that his cosmetic fillers might “migrate” and make him look like the Elephant Man during his prison stint.
Which, by the way, would be a fitting punishment for this vain buffoon.
In Gene’s eyes, Santos showed exactly why he’s earned a permanent spot in a Buffoonology Hall of Shame: he’s a delusional self-promoter who can’t stop making headlines—even on the way to prison.
- BuN: 76 (Well. Bye.)
- BAM: 3.5 GigaSharptons™ (A garden variety podcast crash-out, but with a flourish.)
Hunter or Santos: Who Wins for Losing?
Both Hunter Biden and George Santos gave us masterclasses in shamelessness this week—but only one can walk away with the dubious title of Buffoon of the Week. Will it be Hunter, the volatile mouthpiece who managed to alienate just about everyone while shouting about crack recipes? Or will it be Santos, the convicted fabulist who’s now crying over filler and his new life behind bars?
