o my posts, just mine, several times this year. I don't know the exact number but let's say a handful of times just since the beginning of the year. And other people as well. And so he becomes the person who gets to say, I think 30 million more people should see this idea or this person. And it's incredibly powerful. Do the Democrats have anything like that where one of them can make some other strong player who's way below them in power and can just boost their message right to the top? I don't know. I'm not sure they can do it.

And then we talk about the podcast world where the conservative world has created an unbelievably good podcasting environment or architecture or platform. And they're all independents. Like of course Joe Rogan's the standard, right? But then the All-In Pod just bursts on the scene—I don't know, was it a year or two ago? The All-In Pod just had such smart, insightful people that it just went bang. And they don't lean completely right, but that's part of their value, that you can see both sides. And then you look at the Megyn Kelly show. The Megyn Kelly show in my opinion is probably one of the greatest podcast successes ever because it has all the production quality, has the very best on-air personality you're ever going to see, and every bit of it is interesting. Like I probably consume five or six reels from just Megyn Kelly's show every day and they're always good and everything she says is worth listening to.

Now do they have that? Maybe they have some podcasts that are doing well okay in terms of viewership, but I don't think they have as many superstars. It feels like the political right just absolutely owned podcasting because they had to, because they were shut out from most of the major media or the major media would look like enemies. So yeah, the success of individuals just saying, you know, I got to take control of this. Here's what it is. I feel like when there's a successful Democrat-leaning show of any sort, whether it's a podcast or whether it's on a traditional platform, it feels like it's coming from the top. As in, hey, we need a Joe Rogan. Who's our best person? And then somebody gets pulled in like Gavin Newsom or something. And it's artificial. It's just somebody trying to do the thing that was the missing thing. I don't think a single one of the people I mentioned who are podcasters on the right—I don't think a single one of them said I have to fill a spot, there's an empty spot, I have to fill it. I think every one of them said, what can I do that's additive? What can I do that's additive? And then within the constraints of a media that doesn't allow everybody to do everything, and podcasting was it, and they just said I could add to this and then they did.

So there is something beautiful and magical about what's happening with so many strong voices on the right that I'm just so impressed. And I don't know what's causing it. The only thing I could think of is that right-leaning people feel that their destiny is in their own hands. That's the best I can come up with. Because if you think your destiny is in your own hands, you say, what can I do? How can I help? But also how can I monetize it, which is perfectly fair. That's our system. And I think the people on the left are like, who's going to tell me what I should do to win so our team wins? I mean it's something completely different driving them. So I don't think it's an accident that the most talented people are all on the same side. There's something behind it.

All right, h
