I enjoy listening to a variety of podcasters. One of the things I look for is podcasters who do not have terrible ads thrown in. So that cuts out a large percentage of them as they all have some rediculous sell out. (ExpressVPN anyone, or perhaps you need some manscaping lmao)
--
One exception is Scott Adams - Dilbert Creator.
He doesn't do ads, but he does sell out....
He promotes his stock investments .... without really being upfront about it, but not hiding it either.
He has been blindly elon fanning himself for a while because he wants to promote the stocks which he invests in.
He has a deal with Musk....he wont criticize musk without giving him an out everytime...even when its low hanging fruit.
But he will grab the fruit from any one else....so why not musk?
Well I have come to the conclusion...he is a sellout. But he doesn't want to be associated with it as he thinks of "persuasion as his strength" and likes psyoping people.
If you have listened to him like I have...its clear he doesn't just speak his own opinions...his opinions are always aligned in a very specific way....designed to push the narrative.....the 'faux' conservative narrative.
he is a RINO, but was "pro-trump" when it suited him, but he dumped trump as soon as he could....but only when it was after the election..
I enjoy the lack of ads...but he is insufferably fake. Its like listening to 50% sincere opinion, and 50% paid opinion....excpet he does not specify the advertising.
I think he is loosely connected. He definitely has connections into that world, but I don't think he is in the clique himself. He is likely in near groups and has found that to be slightly outside the group is to his benefit.
He seems to be able to get insider information and has some real connections but he doesn't make it clear.
He is a narcissist though but he does something's which are so specific that to me they seem to be contrived in a way. His narcissistic behavior is probably developed over time and came from the success.
Ya I see what you mean about him being in proximity but not in the club. Honestly I was surprised how many celebs took the shot, and are suffering injuries or death. I guess it proves most of them are just useful idiots, and not privy to any real power or knowledge.
Here is a post you might find interesting. I heard clott adams saying he couldn't walk up the stairs in the morning, and nows apparently he's considering suicide due to his pain.

I think the Kanye stuff kind of rings to that. They were likely connected through handlers, agents, therapists, etc.
If I were to bet....I would assume the handler with Scott Adams is somewhere in the realm of doctor, Publicist, or investment advice. He has been connected to the media for decades so he must have a Publicist and that person has been successful in getting him also a cartoon in the 1990's so he also had some television connection...
Lately his push is tech related stuff. Mostly AI it seems.
clott adams LOL
