Do you know what I mean?

But no, we never wanted that because the moment you create a channel which appeals to a partisan audience, what you automatically do is you give up your independence, right?

You give up your independence of thought.

And we never wanted to do that.

We never wanted to be on any train, whether it's a left-wing train, the right-wing train.

Like, you take, for example, Trump.

There were things that we agreed with Trump, but there were also things that we've been publicly pushing back on.

For instance, the Iran war.

Neither you nor I think that is a good idea.

We both think that it's actually a mistake that will have grave long-term consequences.

globally and economically.

So I was really pleased with that because what it sends is a signal out to people that if you want to come in a show where you will get challenged, but you'll get challenged in good faith, this is the one place where you will come on.

We're not going to strawman.

We're not going to misrepresent.

We're going to hear what you say, and then we're going to push back accordingly if we disagree.

Yeah, and look, this is what people, I think sometimes people look at the content and go, well, but with this guess, you were one way.

Like you said, in this guess, you're another way.

But what we want to do is be intellectually consistent.

If they're making an argument that you don't think it holds water, is not consistent, then you can't just let it go.

You have to challenge it and you have to get to the crux of it.
