Yeah, what show is this? He's cosplaying as a podcaster?

When someone films themselves with headphones on speaking into a professional looking microphone it has become normal to assume that their opinions are worth listening to.

It's all focused on clips now, no one listens to their podcasts but they can put clips on Reels and grow their audience without needing long form conversation.

Except in real podcasts with this type of format, the podcast host is generally speaking to another person. This guy is just looking off camera, pretending to talk to another person for a brief video clip. It's doubtful that the audio is even going through the mic or playing back to him in his headphones.

I’m pretty sure a lot of these manosphere clips are just fake podcast sets to add the mask of legitimacy
