Summary
On today’s episode, host Kate Lindsay is joined by writer of Garbage Day and host of Panic World , Ryan Broderick. Ryan has been tracking the metrics of prominent right-wing creators like Ben Shapiro and Tim Pool over the past year or so, and noticed a surprising trend: once lauded as an unbeatable force of political influence, these creators are struggling with both their views and finances. Is this a sign of the tide turning, or was the right wing media ecosystem never as powerful as we thought it was? This podcast is produced by Vic Whitley-Berry, Daisy Rosario, and Kate Lindsay.
