Tucker Carlson has proven he is not dependent on Fox News for relevance; in fact, he has surpassed Joe Rogan as the most popular podcast on Spotify.
As of March 2024, Rogan had an astounding 14.5 million Spotify followers, according to Mediate. Carlson averaged 3.3 million viewers every night while he was a Fox News contributor. These findings suggest that Carlson’s Fox News firing was the best thing for his relevancy.
The last person that Carlson spoke with on his podcast was Ben Carson, a former employee of the Trump administration. Carson discussed Kamala Harris’s peculiar and Soviet-style media treatment, which attempted to distort the truth and present her to the American people as a political sensation.
“I believe that since Nixon, Trump has received more support from African Americans than any other Republican.” Perhaps even more than Nixon. Does Kamala make that difference? Carson was asked by Carlson.
“It is a given that some voters will support her only on the basis of the demographics she represents. Yes. Carson answered, “Physically, I don’t think it’s going to be as terrific as people imagine.”
He went on, “You know, she didn’t have a lot of black support when she was running for president.” Furthermore, I am aware that the media would stop at nothing to portray her as Martin Luther King Jr. However, I believe that individuals may not be as susceptible to manipulation as the media suggests.
“I believe Trump’s policies, which recognize that progress benefits everyone, will persist in attracting a significant proportion of the black population. Furthermore, I don’t believe that black individuals are especially motivated to be better than anyone else. All they want is fairness, something that benefits all parties. And I believe that’s a contributing factor to Trump’s high level of attention,” Carson stated.
Carlson’s other notable recent guests include the founder of Infowars and famed conspiracy theorist Alex Jones have been among Carlson’s other notable recent guests on his program.
“There has been a paradigm shift, Tucker, and I’m practically out of date,” Jones remarked in the interview. “I’m going to hang up and disappear like Obi-Wan Kenobi as soon as I witness a couple hundred more famous individuals who truly know what’s going on, when we’ve already hit the chain reaction point.”
“The more obstacles I face, the more support I receive, and this is truly turning into a historic war,” he continued. “I would only try to flee someplace in an attempt to keep my program on the air if I were totally blacklisted, defanged, shut down, and unable to function. But it’s really difficult to get something back up and running once they interrupt and shut it down.
It’s obvious that anyone who wishes to comprehend contemporary events should listen to Carlson’s podcast. It also demonstrates how, in today’s increasingly digital media world, the influence of large media companies like Fox News is eroding.
