    I stopped listening and unsubscribed from his podcast after he went on Conan to whine about it for like 15 minutes straight.

    Like I'm sure he got all sorts of weird messages, and I'm sure some of it was disingenuous. But that doesn't mean it's performative for me. Dude probably doesn't even know who Jamal Kashoggi is.
