I only found out about him when I heard of his death. Ended up listening to a ton of his back catalogue, which has been very influential to my thinking. A lot of the clips from his show are about evergreen topics.

“This year I met this young American, a journalist, who turned out to be a friend, who I thought that we would meet again. How is it possible? My heart and prayers go to his family and friends. May his passion for social justice be remembered and inspire people around the world.”

In the very niche world of leftist news podcasts, he was the best.

Feel like shit, just want him back.

Jokes aside: I basically followed the leftist pipeline like a lot of other people and graduated to Michael Brooks after being a young turd for a while. I credit him a lot with having helped me not just decolonize my brain but giving me the tools to help me analyze and deobfuscate media. A true comrade. Rest in power.

I stopped watching the majority report after he passed. Rest in power
