There's another podcast that you can get on the VR Stream, Krystal, Kyle,
and Friends. I learned about it because Matt Taibi wrote that he was
interviewed on the latest episode. I was interested to learn some of the
details of his life because he is a rather unusual person. It was too
difficult for me to get to the episode on Substack so I subscribed to the
podcast on the stream. It's an interesting podcast. Krystal Ball and Kyle,
whose last name I don't know, it was mentioned once and sounded Polish, are
left of center, perhaps socialist, perhaps Democratic Socialists, but
relatively knowledgeable and interesting. They interview guests. There's an
interview with Andrew Yang who is running to be New York Mayor. He sounds
fine, except when they questioned him about the BDS movement. On that, he's
terrible. They didn't sound all that great about the Israel/Palestine issue
either, sort of on the two state solution side. Everyone sounded rather
horrified by the proposition that the State of Israel shouldn't exist as a
Jewish state. Perhaps no one has explained the issue to them? But Yang
sounded like he had been told what to think by his election advisers. The
idea seems to be that if you're the mayor of New York, you must satisfy its
Jewish residents and all of them are assumed to be supporters of Israel.
