I laughed out loud when I read this:

“But he has been known to promote conspiracist thinking. He also promotes gold sales on the podcast, which for me is itself a reason to be cautious about him. “

This has been my experience and mindset about the apparent correlation between conspiracy theorists and selling gold. Where did these people come from?

IMHO they come from two places. First, the idea of returning to the gold standard has been a cause on the right for decades on the presumption that it would somehow cut taxes, cut deficits, and stabilize commerce. Nixon ended it in response to inflation but promised to return. He never did.

Second, if you spend all of your time obsessing about "the coming collapse" or other horrors that makes you an easy mark for precious metals which you think will last through the storm. It also makes you buy guns.

TYT is on the Samsung free TV network, along with Fox, Newsmax and a host of right wing “news” and interview shows. Sad to see them abandoning the people who’ve supported them

TYT used to be on Pluto along with 10 right-wing shows. I knew what the right had to say so I avoided them. Then I tried watching TYT’s sad, quasi-liberal, semi-network and I thought, if this is the best we’ve got, it’s no wonder the Dictatorship is winning. TYT is no longer on Pluto. Just those OTHER shows. Podcasts aren’t enough! We need a REAL news channel to put them on notice: “We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take this anymore!”

I understand what your trying to communicate !

It does hurt !

But nothing much we can dj until we notice a replacement!

I do see pieces of a network in Substack and you tube ..

What’s needed is consolidation and funding to bring together!’

There’s plenty of talent and Brains !

Looking for a producer to tie it all together!

Maybe an independent list can be made and time slots given out by invitation!

Might work !

I’m off looking for a producer

My Name is Wayne and the best I can Do is throw this idea out !
