## Resource

Soon after Twitch streamer Hasan Piker started campaigning with Democratic candidates this spring, an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal was published with the headline “Democrats are too cozy with Hasan Piker". That triggered a fever pitch of more op-eds and interviews asking Piker to respond to past statements he’s made on Israel's war in Gaza, 9/11, and more. But the controversy surrounding him hasn’t slowed his momentum or influence – if anything, it’s amplified both. Host Kai Wright talks to Piker and asks, what exactly is this very online, very popular figure trying to achieve in the real world? Check out the Guardian's December 2025 profile of Hasan Piker here Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
