DO NOT record lectures without permission...this is explicitly forbidden in the student code of conduct on many campuses. Plus, then you'll likely lose your anonymity. If you make a big stink and out yourself, the professors in your major will label you as someone to watch out for...a loose cannon who secretly records profs and turns them in. People talk...even if they agree he's a goof, suddenly you're labeled as an upstart troublemaker.
Everyone probably already knows this guy is a goof.

I would also encourage other members of GLOs in the class to complain on course evaluations about the behavior. I would make the complaint two pronged: 1) it's a stupid insult and 2) it's a waste of time. Encourage the students after you to make the same complaints in the course evaluations. It might take a few go-rounds for him to change his behavior.
I would not raise a stink with the dean or the department chair. It just isn't worth it to charge this hill. If he's tenured, you aren't going to win and the rest of your time in your major department is going to be unpleasant.
