      This is ONE TV show. TV in the 70s was utterly atrocious, there was almost nothing to watch. It was very boring; these are selectively curated clips on UA-cam. You’d have to wait for the one hour on one day per week when something decent was scheduled. You still had the terrible late night shows. There’s much, much more variety and choice now. Go find a podcast or an in-depth interview show on UA-cam or on your favourite streaming service, and you will find the same calibre of discussion.

      You’ll notice that he doesn’t speak in talking points. He doesn’t troll with his statements. He makes statements as the original thoughts come to his mind. That’s what is missing today. It’s one thing to have a conversation with some where you disagree. It’s another when they start spouting talking points. It’s not a conversation at that point. It’s propaganda, which doesn’t deserve respect.
