hot totally unsupportable take: the mainstreaming of this whole pose is traceable to Ancient Aliens. The history channel blew up with this one program premised on “we’re not only saying crazy shit, we’re asking crazy questions.” And everybody was like “oh this is how we get eyeballs now”
Wait you can just jump onto someone else's podcast? How does this work. Are these guys all just sitting around on the internet all day wandering into each others' broadcasts?
I really don’t know my way around this ecosystem but apparently yes like you just hop into someone’s stream and I guess it’s good for exposure and eyeballs regardless of political overlap.
That’s more or less how it works. Functionally it’s not SO different from 24-hour news channels having guests call in from different media orgs to debate about a hot topic.

that's a great analogy!
dark timeline, great writing though!
"maybe talk to girls" is brilliant
Hey thanks Jordan!
Unfortunately too many of these words make too much sense to me.
Popular culture and political culture continue to merge and become equally more absurd each day
Who arranges this sort of thing?
