Ben Rhodes — 100 “you knows” in 56 minutes— and he’s a podcaster
Repeatedly falls short as a credible thinker due to ideological blindness
Good content, high intellectual engagement on important topics. Sometimes gets a bit trivial (does anyone want to know that the host gets high and goes to leather events etc?) and Andrew’s interview style isn’t just often hectoring it verges often on bullying (see Eli Lake episode). Sometimes suspiciously aggressive on immigration (why the fixation on “non-white immigration?) and appears to be stridently anti-Israel.
Found this podcast by way of the Eli Lake episode on Iran. Subscribed. Made it halfway through the first episode and I’m unsubscribed again. Disappointed to here Andrew Sullivan, who I have taken to be deserving of respect, peddle the same garbage conspiracies about Israeli control of US policy as the lunatics on the far left and right.
