Thanks Bob. The tariff bit was a bit disorganized and tangential….probably would have been better to use a different analogy that didn’t lead down that rabbit hole, but still plenty of great points.
I think part of the reason Fuentes moderates himself when he goes on shows like Dave’s is as a professional courtesy to the host. I think they may have even hinted at it somewhere in that interview (I don’t remember where), but Nick knows that if he does his normal routine, he’s putting those channels at risk with the platforms, so he chooses to stick to safer topics, and only vaguely alludes to how he might “disagree with the host on the topic of race” and so forth.
Thanks tyler. Something is screwy with the version you listened to, however. My audio guy clipped it at the wrong spot; there’s 5 minutes of material you’re missing. I keep uploading the correct file but it’s not “taking.” I’ll try to get the hosts to fix it.
