Idk, he comes off as too conciliatory so often. He had a guy on a few weeks ago, deep libertarian, and Jon really didn’t do much but agree with his points.
I don’t expect him to be a table-thumping communist in these interviews, but he has an audience that are there because of his views, and letting guests off the hook is something he should save for the TV show, this podcast promises to be (and usually is) more serious about being a political outlet.
When he gets someone on that he agrees with, like Ezra Klein, they get all fired up together and I really enjoy those discussions. I wish he’d get fired up with these Democrats that push the status quo and rip them new assholes.
