One of my favorite podcasts is Knowledge Fight, where a couple of dudes break down Alex's shows and his shitty, relentlessly flawed and often inconsistent opinions and narratives.

Alex seems more and more unhinged lately and it wouldn't surprise me if he eats a bullet or has an oops-I-killed-myself-by-accident kinda event in the not-distant future. Being the type of asshole he is, he will absolutely preemptively blame any apparent suicide on the (((cabal)))/deep state. Gotta pay the grift forward

Yeah this surprised me, too. For all the time I've heard KF analyse his shows, he seemed to age poorly of course - owing probably a fair bit to his rampant alcoholism - but otherwise on-track. At all times. He was always just a right-wing grifter, following whatever trend he could exploit to sell more gold/waterfilters/bonemealshakes/whatever with. But the recent 2-3 months? Damn.

If you like that pod you’d probably also like the QAA podcast. It’s similar in some resepdts but better imo.

I agree that both are excellent 👍
