Conservative Takes Dolled Up As Objective Analysis
Revisado: 07-12-22
The guy definitely covers some big ticket international news of the day that is less covered in most American-centric media, but most domestic items seem more picked as a vehicle for delivering a partisan narrative. Particularly telling is the "analysis" around energy and energy security that criticizes the same policies energy companies criticize while the podcast contains advertising from Exxon. The timeframe and format of the podcast doesn't allow for the deeper analysis of factors that contribute to complex international events, and it seems like some of the takes hinge on cherry-picked data to extrapolate desired conclusions from. Wider, deeper analysis of a core/critical event, maybe as a subset of the podcast, would help offset some of that.
At the end of the day, its not that I think the takes are good or bad that I'm rating this only 1 star, but rather the fact that the marketing for this podcast tries to wallpaper over the partisan/corporate opinions with the patina of the takes being those one would see in an intelligence product produced by one of the three letter agencies. I've no doubt this guy has a legit background in the IC and we all gotta make money, but it comes off as disingenuous when the hot takes on energy policy are sponsored by energy companies (a taxpayer-subsidized industry currently posting record breaking profits) and delivered under the guise of objective intelligence analysis. I certainly hope the DNI reports on America's energy security aren't "sponsored" by energy companies in the way this podcast is. That would seem to be a conflict of interest.
