Love when a title has to remind people that something is popular
That's wild, I was sure the most popular podcasts on Spotify were Trueanon, the Deprogram, Citations Needed and Trillbillies.
I'd actually love to hear Harris on any of these other than Citations Needed (I think Adam and Nima would be too soft).
I don't think I can bring myself to listen to this but please report back.
Top 5 popular podcasts om there a lot of times are rogan, candace, shawn ryan, tucker carlson Oh hey hawk tuah new addition
Reading the top 20 podcast list is fascinating. I'm rather surprised by the amount of pop psychology meets hustle-grind culture on there. The true crime stuff was expected, but the pop psychology/"Master your mindset bro™©®" is concerning but also explains a lot of the normie/mainstream stuff I hear and see online these days.
It's kind of funny that all the true crime podcasts bill themselves as a kind of "bet you never heard about this!" kind of thing, only now everyone knows about everything they talk about because there's so many of those podcasts floating around.
All of that stuff is interlinked you have former conmen talking about their time in prison and covering crime news and sentencing who also sell dumb conman courses in their descriptions lol
