Him having a show is actually rather unfortunate as he is along the same lines as the Fox News pundits when it comes to sophistication. He's not all that much unlike Fox News pundits aside from his show not professing to be actual news or being on a news channel. His islamophobia (and his dumbass vaccination paranoia) is just what trips the bullshit detector real hard because for the most part he tends to parrot the views of the pathetic mess that accounts for the mainstream US "left." Pretty much this. I've pulled my podcast subscription (unrelated, but the production quality of which has been atrocious for months now) just because there's no reason to listen anymore. Every conversation goes exactly the way you would expect given who's on the panel, so unless you really like standup comedy built on lazy stereotypes there's no reason to tune in. Watching him deal with the occasional crazy audience member is kinda funny, I suppose, but that doesn't happen regularly enough to be a draw.
