 He has moved much more in my direction since he left Fox & he is a good interviewer.

He is not yet an anarcho capitalist like me, but his content is great for moving normies in the right direction.

If you actually have some specific bone to pick with anything said here I might be interested to hear it, otherwise empty objections are just meaningless & unintelligent. 
 I have had this same experience with this guy. Couldn't stand him when my parents watched him on Fox, thought it was all Boomer fear porn. Now I listen to a bunch of his shows.

I think people like Rogan and Mr. Carlson are the gateway drug to becoming an Anarcho capitalist. 

Rogan lead me to Lex, Lex lead me to Breedlove, and Breedlove Orange pilled me on the spot. 
 I'm not a big fan of greedlove, but I'm glad that he is orangepilling people. I have never understood the love for Lex either, he seems super fake to me.

I came by way of economics which was my major. I found Milton Friedman & Thomas Sowell, then Peter Schiff (who used to be great) & Doug Casey & Tom Woods, then Rothbard & Karl Hess & some others. And these days Part of the Problem & Bitcoin Audible & maybe Liberty Lockdown are my favorite regular listens. But Carlson, Joe, & a few others are often really good. 
 Likewise. The issue is there are very few journalists - which may be a generous description of Tucker - who are discussing these things.

If someone is addressing this topic, I don't care for their political persuasions nor do I (or should I) inherently trust them. It is the subject matter that is important.

If one cannot separate the two, then I suggest looking to other people doing the same, such as Jimmy Dore. Ultimately, they are having conversations and pushing the discussions into the open, which is what matters. 
 Maybe he’s changed then. I don’t find his interviews engaging. 
 Did you listen to the recent one about pharma & food industry corruption? IMO I have a hard time seeing how anyone wouldn't find it interesting & eye opening unless they were just completely closed minded against admitting that we live in a corrupt society plagued by a myriad of serious health problems. 
 The content is interesting. I don’t need to hear that message from the T man 🤷‍♂️. I guess I don’t want to give him a chance because of the years of supreme demagoguery and intense dislike of his voice and his face🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️. 
 "Just say no to Tucker"

"Why?"

"Am I not entertained?"
