Could be for sure. I had stopped listening to him for a long time until he started being relevant again with the covid regime. He says the most ignorant leftist shit, even after he's been corrected to his face by his guests. I wonder sometimes if he is caught in the trap of trying to be 'reasonable' and finding a middle ground between both sides, when currently only one side has any rationality left. I've noticed some of my friends do this and it is retarded.
