Right-wing radio host Alex Jones had a gastronomic catastrophe when giving a deposition ahead of his custody battle with his ex-wife, a court heard Tuesday.His ex-wife, Kelly Jones, wants custody of their three kids, aged 9-14. They have lived with the Infowars boss in Austin, Texas, since the couple divorced in 2015.Things took an awkward turn on the first day of the trial when her lawyer claimed Jones had forgotten 'basic facts' about his kids during a deposition because 'he had a big bowl of chili for lunch,' Austin 360 reported.Jones was unable to recall what grade his children were in, according to a Buzzfeed reporter. It was unclear whether Jones had made the remarks in jest, or seriously.That wasn't the only eye-popping claim made by Kelly Jones' lawyer, Bobby Newman, on Tuesday.He also accused Jones of being diagnosed with narcissism and paranoia - and played a video clip of Jones disrobing down to his shorts while on camera as 'proof'.In the clip Jones said he wanted to show the effects of a 'vitality-increasing' formula sold on the Infowars website, as well as to reference FBI 'snooping' on private communications.Jones also complains that he didn't get a Pulitzer Prize or Nobel Prize for 'being right' about 'the Saudis' being involved in the 9/11 attacks during the clip. Newman also claimed in court that Jones would disrobe during therapy sessions. Jones' lawyers responded that the rant was 'satire' created as part of Jones' show, and not related to his parenting.
That's not a side effect of any chili I've ever encountered. Maybe I'm doing it wrong.
