I really don’t think Evans was in Seattle but I’ve seen plenty of footage of him in Portland. Both cities suck roughly equally, just in different ways, so it’s impossible to te... wait wrong line

lmao

I was trying and I suppose failing to make a joke about the fact that he calls people tankies and Assadists with seemingly no understanding of what that means and also that he has no real connection to Portland other than conflict tourism here and might as well have been in Seattle

I'm familiar enough with the man and his work given that I ate a 24 hour probe for lightly mocking his half a million a year paycheck in his RGD thread :)

Well it was funny to me at least even if nobody else picked up on it and isn't that what counts?

Hey y'all this is Robert. TFR convinced me to get back on to talk about guns.

I think I was unclear in my 8chan episode and some folks have misinterpreted the status of my old account. I was never permabanned or anything. My old account is still active. But I had it when I was 12 or something and I'd prefer not to have it easily associated with my name.

my salary at iheartradio is $400,000 per year. the show is extremely successful and makes a lot on ad revenue. i'm fairly open about that because i think it's important, particularly for my colleagues when they negotiate for deals. i make very little at bellingcat. i was unemployed for much of 2017 and 2018. my initial salary at iheart was much lower, but then all my shows made a lot of money and i negotiated for a better deal.

i feel better about taking add money than begging people for money who may not have much to give. my last experience with crowdfunding, when i was broke, involved folks saying stuff like "i gave you ten bucks now and i'm broke until payday but I'll give you more then" and that made me feel terrible. chapo folks make six figures a month on patreon, and good for them. we all have to make choices, and capitalism doesn't offer us a lot of simple ones. i made the choice to go with ads.

That one was good, but my favorite was an hour episode he did about how Epstein probably killed himself.

Kind of insignificant in the grand scheme but for a while he used to (maybe still does idk I stopped listening after the “I inspired the Portland protests moment) do ad reads for simplisafe that would start with something like “if you listen to my show you know the world is a dangerous place” lmao

Nothing like trading on fear of Nazis to sell home security systems I just always thought that was hilarious

it's weird because on the podcast he's as anti-CIA as the average CSPAM poster so his occasional bouts of being pro-intervention are weird. idk he's more like a useful idiot than an actual psyop.

iHeartRadio is just the rebranded clear channel corporation, who depending on your age you may or may not remember as the company that spent the late 90s and 2000s buying up local media and really paved the way for media consolidation. I'm not familiar with any overt ties between the NED and iHeart but iHeart is a massive corporation that is very connected to a lot of people and has been for decades so :shrug:

Yeah I realized it's Clear Channel and all that implies, just figured since people were so specific with naming NED there must be some particular connection.

Yeah, Bellingcat is the bigger smoking gun, but the iHeart payday is also really weird and it's always important to remind people (you'd be surprised how many people got fooled by the rebrand) that iHeart isn't some plucky media and podcast company and a massive and connected entity in its own right with all the poo poo that comes with that

I was pretty impressed that Evans kept linking articles to me that I’m pretty sure he didnt even read beyond googling “African mercenaries Libya”

What a bunch of babies I wasn’t trolling either, I just wasn’t going to let him get away with going “actually it was entirely reasonable to spread racist rumors”
