Josh's Linguistic Deterioration I'm relatively new to Cobes, but watching one of his videos from the Stephanie era compared with any of his recent ones, I was dumbfounded with how much more lucid and fluent his speech was years ago.

What is the cause of this? The pauses aren't as many or as lengthy, his speech isn't stilted, he's not pronouncing words in such a fucked up way. It's almost like he's had some kind of brain damage, but I can't tell. My brother has suffered a TBI, and even across years since, there's been clear deterioration in how he speaks and forms thoughts.  But I'm unaware of Josh having suffered anything like that. 

The only things I can think are he's drinking more than I believe he does, or perhaps being isolated and outside of a regular life has taken on a toll on his mind? Any theories are welcome, I'm just in total confusion, right now.
