  • He did push back sometimes and he wasn’t always agreeing with people. Letting somebody speak isn’t the same as agreeing with them, but there are too many people who mistake one for the other.

    Joe was one of the few people who would let people actually voice their opinions - good or bad, in their nigh entirety. His show was one of the few where people like Bernie Sanders and Andrew Yang could talk about their ideas in depth, without being constantly interrupted by some biased TV show host to try and get a sound bite or clip for the next headline.

    What was missing was Joe’s critical thinking. He let them say a lot and did ask questions, but he, in my opinion, lacks the mental acuity to be able to deeply analyse what came out of his guests. It was also a reason why some people went there. They knew Joe was going to ask questions, but he was high quite often and the questions weren’t going to be as pointed or sharp as say Sam Harris.

    And of course, Joe likes to talk about apes.
