Episode notes

I think a lot of it is about going to them. It's the closest thing we have to a captive audience. Next week, we're doing a fan show on my show that i do every six months. I'm interviewing 20 fans from 20 different countries and continents. The most interesting ones are those in the middle east where there are free thinkers who can connect with each other for the first time.

Today many YouTube channels have more influence than traditional TV shows. This fact is not lost on Dave Rubin, who started his talk show career in traditional media, but soon decided to strike out on his own. He now hosts The Rubin Report, which has half a million subscribers on YouTube and is financially backed by its fans on Patreon.

But the most important indicator of influence? All but one of Tyler’s law and literature class had heard of Dave before this taping.

Recorded live at an event a few months ago, Dave and Tyler’s conversation covers all this and more, including what Dave learned from his year abroad in Israel and his pick for the most underrated Star Wars movie.
