Fridman is on the other end of the spectrum I'm describing.

You said heavily processed and barely-reported

If you want to say Fridman's content is "barely-reported", i.e. he barely does journalism, then I won't really argue.

But the interviews are NOT heavily processed, and that's precisely why some on the left won't sit with him. (But not Thompson and Klein, because they actually have something to say.)

So ironically, it kinda balances out. Being credulous attracts guests who talk almost as if they are off the record
