Such a smart and insightful dude. Always brings experts into the show, but he does his research before. Couldn’t recommend it enough.
“A Sanctimonious Echo Chamber: Derek’s One-Sided Pretense of Open-Mindedness”
Oct 4
Derek thinks he’s smarter and morally superior to you. Sure, he’ll pretend to be open-minded and thoughtful about incredibly complex issues (the economy and foreign policy, for instance), but that’s all just window dressing. In Derek’s mind, there is one correct viewpoint. He’ll shove it down your throat and then claim you’re a terrible person if you disagree. Most people would say, “don’t bother wasting your time listening to this drivel,” but I actually encourage you to listen to several episodes, if only to get a proper feel for how incredibly pretentious and holier-than-thou Derek and a huge proportion of “journalists” are.
