He literally has the most listened to podcast in the US and by a huge mile. It's stupid to generalize his audience as well as his guests. His list of guests is comically huge and so diverse that it's hard to wrap your head around. He has guests ranging from Bernie Sanders to Elon Musk to Mike Tyson to Neil deGrasse Tyson to Kevin Hart to Bob Lazar. That's why people find his podcast so interesting, and the fact that he's good conversationalist makes it easy to understand why his podcast is as popular as it is. The amount of guests he had that could be described as genuinely hateful is miniscule, and even then it's better to listen to them and understand how their views came to be than to remain ignorant and pretend that you know everything about them based on what others told you. It's not his place to legitimize or delegitimize people. That's up to the individual in the audience to decide. He's just there to have a fun conversation with interesting people and provide an hour or two of entertainment.
