He’s the centre-right-wing “independent” acceptable talking head.

He has a left-winger in Ian Crossland (of Minds) regularly on the show and Ian regularly and quickly goes beyond the acceptable narrative, listen to their interactions - Tim cuts him off every time he starts running.

When his right wing guests veer off he lets them run to the end of the thread, not his left wing guests like Ian though.

Tim is centre-right by modern standards (says he’s centre-left, he’s not) and is shifting the Overton window to libertarian/Ancap with his guests which is generally good.

But I’m sure he’s an agent, and he regularly has agents on his shows. Occasional praise of Bitcoin and Bukele in ES but it comes back to the right-wing police state.

Watch him with Alex Stein or Benny Johnson or Jack Posobiec on the show - see how controlled the narratives are and how far Tim let’s the conversation go beyond the default with them.

Better to watch than CNN for sure but gotta realise it’s just as controlled.
