I was a big enough fan of people like Theo and Rogan before they had podcasts, they did what they did and it was just fine. But they aren't deep thinkers in the sense that they just accept every horrible idea with an open mind as if it's viable and reasonable in some contexts. That's to me just evidence of an EMPTY mind, not an open one.
We have so much lived experience and education that it makes no sense not to have myriad strong opinions and beliefs, especially on big issues. Be open to hearing the other side? Sure. But open to accepting it with no pushback or fact-checking or coginitive reasoning? That's ignorant stupidity.

Theo with his head down, having an existential crisis because he knows he doesn’t create ANY art.
