I think Virgil and Felix are both smarter than Matt and come up with more of their own original opinions even though they're not especially well read. Matt's opinion is just whatever he read in a book, and he's not great at integrating it with other knowledge and opinions to form his own, at least that's the impression I get from watching some of his cushvlogs or that godawful matt taibi episode.
Synthesis: Matt has no opinions* and has thus attained true emptiness
Now I want to know if F or V have freestyled solo in a similar format. Matt's structural and social analysis sustains me and I enjoy similar
scope remarks from them as well. Too much of their shit is dirtbag yuks
*no political opinions, I don't find I need his free floating cultural nattering when it's politically unlinked

Matt barely reads, he's said this multiple times.
He definitely reads more than anyone else on the show except for Will who is coincidentally also kind of a dumb dumb. Maybe books do rot your brain.
