Ep. 16 Dave Rubin: On Free Speech, Leaving the Left and Identity Politics
Manage episode 426516093 series 3530014
Dave Rubin, host of “The Rubin Report,” used to be a leftist, but now he says progressives are “totalitarian.”
He’s been shouted down when he speaks on college campuses.
“They think I am a right-wing extremist,” Rubin tells me.
He’s even lost friends for his political views.
But Rubin’s show is hugely popular. He rightly recognized that people have an appetite for longer, in-depth interviews.
“If there were more people having honest conversation,” Rubin tells me, "we wouldn’t be in the mess we’re in.”
Rubin is on to something. We talk about free speech, idenity politics, his change in politics, and more.
