The Rise of Big Podcasts and the Intellectual Right
This chapter explores the rise of popular podcasts like Rogan and Jordan Peterson and their appeal to those who want to be seen as intelligent. It discusses how the right has taken on a more intellectual approach, engaging with history and theory, while the left has lost its theory corner. The chapter also examines Rogan's lack of pushback on guests and his susceptibility to being co-opted by the right.
