It's just, you really can, I've gotten to the point now where I'm confusing the hell out of the algorithms, which is a bad thing to do.

Yeah, it does.

What do you think makes a good podcast?

What makes a good host?

Yeah.

I think that's, that's one of the most important things.

And I think a huge problem, um,

with kind of societies that sits right now is everybody wants to exist in an echo chamber.

Everybody wants to just listen to the same people that believe the same shit they do and regurgitates the exact same left or right.

And you're being served it.

Your algorithm on your phone is like, Oh, what does this dude link?

You know, this guy wants to live in the woods and go off grid and tinfoil hat.

Well, that's all we're going to give you all day long.

And so you reinforce that behavior.

I think a good host for me is somebody that's willing to, like you said, be open to new ideas and question everything.

I don't, I don't,

I think when you do this and you meet as many people as you do doing this particular form of media, it forces you to open your eyes a little bit and kind of be like, okay, what would it take for me to, what would it take for my belief in this to not be too accurate, right?

And you get a little more open to it, which I think is going to, and try to book people of all sorts.

Now, I have seen a couple of people that I know and like recently, and I'm not going to name names, but they've turned to Jerry Springer behind a microphone.

Like, I mean, I saw something posted today by one of my friends that was remixed.
