Because when you ask for the help of police to protect you from being brutally murdered you expect them to wait while they verify your identity, work out exactly where you are and phone a neighbour to corroborate.

I think it’s more disagreement than misunderstanding, I understand what you are saying and while its clear you don’t understand things about the youtube model i.e. youtube premiums feature set DOES add all the features you mention being essential to podcasts, its a core part of its value model. I disagree that a video…

I would say I disagree in that fundamental definition, as long as it can be downloaded and listened to and is primarilly designed to be listened to then I class it as a podcast. If you are sitting behind a table with a microphone in front of you and you happen to record that on video its still a podcast... are you…

Ah so now I’m the racist, gotcha gaslighting and dissembling, can’t win an argument or respond to a point so just call the other guy racist, very mature... are you actually a child?

Some really good points and I agree with most to a degree.

I’m not being dishonest, I just don’t interpret that the way you do, he’s clearly trying to articulate the difference between culture and race and the entirety of the statement articulates that pretty clearly.

You kind of broke down where the profit comes from. And while you make good points they aren’t entirely representive of the market as you are looking at the top end of podcasting, which actually isn’t common in the podcasting market.

Its not really a cake, a fairly averagely and non violent racist person, of which lets be honest is not uncommon in any race of person is not the same as a Nazi. A Nazi is a very specific thing, and a very different level of thing than someone that’s just a bit casually racist.

To be fair its not a direct comparison, there is racist in the way a 50 year old man is a bit racist without really thinking about it and racist as in going out and lynching people in a hood. Rogans definitely the former, but he’s also aware of it and pretty self reflective, a lot of people have done way worse and…

It isn’t the revenue they are worried about, its the profit, music on its own barely keeps the lights on and that’s accounting for them paying creators peanuts.

Your reading comprehension isn’t great, I didn’t refer to any of those people as decent scientists. Your simply picking the wing nuts and again... freakshow. He’s had scientists that are widely regarded experts in their fields, to talk about their fields(or whatever they want) on the show. That’s the whole theme of…

Like I said he leans in to every guest, he’s not looking to do a Parkinson show type experience, he’s running a freakshow. It is part of the appeal of the show, to see people have good conversations about what they are passionate in, you don’t need to agree with that those things are to enjoy it and there is absolute…

Why don’t people put pressure for people they want to counter that misinformation to go on Rogan? You can guarantee that while spotify won’t pull episodes(and rightly so) they would pressure him to have a certain guest on, and frankly to anyone that actually has listened to any Rogan episodes other than the freakshow…

What Victory? He gets a free $100M and just moves back to youtube or any other hosting platform.

Thing is he’s not peddling it or pretending to do that, its the same thing he’s always produced - a podcast talking to people, the interesting bit is the people and while Joe’s a bit of wing nut himself he often leans into guests to get the most out of them no matter who they are.

You must of got on way better than my family did! To be honest I think its a fair compromise to get the cost down, which I think is always the major criticism. I don’t think anyones going to take aim at the deck when it comes out, but all the retro focussed devices do get a bit of a panning by people that don’t…

If its squadrons you are talking about I think it actually did pretty well and I got the impression it was more of a test the waters situation rather than a full blown attempt at something significant. While it wasn’t a shoestring budget it also was pretty cheap in terms of dev costs, hence why they made it cheap and…

I don’t blame people cashing in, its the people buying the things that’s the issue. Crypto I get, and NFTs have in some use cases a real benefit and function, art and ranom pictures as NFTs is not one of those benefits.

If situations aren’t stable and you don’t have access seisometers are difficult to have, if you are monitoring a volcano with them you really need to be there, not a good idea when they are that active, you also need a good number of them and great data uplinks to get fine scale resolution that makes it worth having.

The thing I liked about the original gameboy was people couldn’t see what you were playing unless they had their head right next to yours, for a device you hold in your hands I don’t see where the negative comes in(as the author noted themselves). This won’t do it to that degree, but even if it did I genuinely…
