Andrew Schulz is disrupting the Legacy Media in actual time.
The rogue comedian’s work, be it on stage or along with his podcasts (“Flagrant,” “Sensible Idiots”), undermines what biased reporters share.
President Joe Biden is sharp as a tack, reporters declare. Schulz argues in any other case.
Schulz, together with so-called “podcast bros” like Tim Dillon, Theo Von and Joe Rogan, gave Crew Trump loads of consideration by way of their respective podcasts.
And everyone knows who gained final November.
Now, Schulz is opening as much as The New York Occasions on a bunch of points. He’s a self-proclaimed Democrat who voted for Trump, for starters. He additionally sought to set the document straight on why he didn’t interview Vice President Kamala Harris within the waning days of the 2024 presidential marketing campaign.
He tried. She denied. And Crew Harris gained’t come clear about it.
Schulz reveals his podcast contacts reached out to Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz and Harris for interviews through the marketing campaign.
All of them declined. It will get worse concerning Crew Harris, who he stated lied about his outreach efforts.
They are saying you didn’t? Yeah, and it’s wild to blatantly lie when not solely did I attain out — Charlamagne, who’s working with them, reached out. Mark Cuban, who’s a surrogate, reached out, and we reached out, they usually blatantly lie. Then when individuals write articles about it, they’ll say, “Andrew says he reached out to Kamala, however we reached out to the Kamala individuals, they usually stated that by no means occurred.” So what’s the reader speculated to interpret that as?
An evasion. I believe it’s an indictment on me, as a result of it’s virtually like calling me a liar.
It’s greater than that, after all. Schulz is being diplomatic with the framing.
The interview is fascinating on many ranges, revealing a considerate comedian who understands the tradition and remains to be discovering his position inside it.
He’s already discovered the arduous method how political operatives throw sharp elbows, the sort that aren’t remotely humorous.
