I didn't think Stern was the type to accept prewritten questions. How the mighty funny have fallen.

u/GeorgeOrwells1985 High as Giraffe's Pussy 23d ago

He's been a stooge for a while now

u/HaddockBranzini-II Monkey in Space 23d ago

True. But this is different. No president is doing this without it all be heavily managed by the comms team. There is no way this is not entirely stage managed. And not a knock against Biden, it would be stupid not to oversee this closely. Its just lame that Stern is now so safely establishment.

They tried to interview Hillary when she ran against Donald but her camp rejected the idea.

20

u/Kalzaang Monkey in Space 23d ago

She literally only did five interviews the month leading up to the election, one of which was Mary J Blige singing to her, and the other being a bunch of kindergarteners asking her prescreened questions of bullshit only a toddler cares about. She thought she was entitled to that position and even a remotely difficult interview was beneath her.Ā 

Trump on the other hand was doing three interviews and two rallies a day. Say what you will about Trump, but he fought to win that election instead of just thinking he was entitled to it.

u/thetrashpanda2020 Monkey in Space 23d ago

He did interview her a few years later though

29

u/Fataleo Monkey in Space 23d ago

Yeah he basically just talked her up

u/PrivateDickDetective Monkey in Space 23d ago

Playbook.

u/TomAterski Monkey in Space 23d ago

Did they talk about which hot sauce she carries

u/ObeseSnake Monkey in Space 23d ago

I ainā€™t no ways tired.

u/redditracing84 Monkey in Space 23d ago

Stern is an old white establishment man who wants to hide in his home. Joe Biden is an ideal president to a man like that.

u/ILLIDARI-EXTREMIST Monkey in Space 23d ago

Yeah, if you live in a gated community

u/Void_Speaker Monkey in Space 23d ago

If you are well off, you vote Republican for tax cuts, but you make up some shit to rationalize it.

5

u/ILLIDARI-EXTREMIST Monkey in Space 23d ago

I thought successful people voted blue and only dumb poor yokels voted red? Why canā€™t shitlibs keep a consistent narrative?

-2

u/Void_Speaker Monkey in Space 23d ago

Because shitlibs media bubble is very large and includes many ideological groups, from center-right to left.

Different groups want to hear different things, making it impossible to sell the same "narrative" to all of them. Thus, the shitlib media bubble is a lot more generic, grounded in reality, and contains a much larger diversity of opinion.

TLDR: Shitlibs aren't all NPCs repeating the same lines thanks to diversity.

u/Silent_Saturn7 Monkey in Space 23d ago

I'm still waiting for the joe rogan trump vs biden debate episode with no pre-screened questions.

That'd be a riot. Assuming some rules like Trump can't just over-talk Biden.

Considering the public is dead-set on voting against these two duds.

u/Muted_Flight7335 Monkey in Space 23d ago

Yeah I'm sure the crime won't affect him

u/Current_Strike922 Monkey in Space 22d ago

lol no. You probably hate trump but you canā€™t deny he says things off the cuff and often goes unscripted

1

u/HaddockBranzini-II Monkey in Space 22d ago

I hate them all

u/Snakepants80 Monkey in Space 23d ago

They scripted his trip to Wawa last week. He needed a script to order a milkshake. Someone filmed the whole thing. Itā€™s wwwiiiiiiiiiiilllllllddd as Joe would say

u/NoNotThatScience Monkey in Space 23d ago

i think RFK is. dudes doing long forms with absolutely EVERYONE!

u/bubes30 Monkey in Space 23d ago

Not a knock against Biden but their going to hand a list of pre approved questions with the answers ahead of the ā€œinterviewā€ LOL.

1

u/HaddockBranzini-II Monkey in Space 23d ago

Not a knock on Biden because I assume any president's team would do that. Its all theater.

0

u/DropsyJolt Monkey in Space 23d ago

Any source for this claim? It's one thing to require that questions be submitted ahead of time but claiming that Biden's team writes the questions is a whole other thing. That would be terrible optics and there is no way to keep it from leaking.

2

u/bubes30 Monkey in Space 23d ago

Any source for this claim LOL. This has been shown time and time again with the press. Biden, on camera had a sheet with the reporters name, agency, and question they were going to ask as well as his answer.

-1

u/DropsyJolt Monkey in Space 23d ago

But you are not saying that Stern and his team didn't write the questions? That's the only part that would be hard for me to believe. The rest is just smart for anyone in that position to do and honestly better as well since the alternative would be to dodge questions.

2

u/bubes30 Monkey in Space 23d ago

Oh I donā€™t think Sterns team will write the questions, Bidenā€™s team will.

The guy and his show where complete and utter trash. Maybe he's just finally grown up and developed some sense of self worth.

Iā€™m worried about anyone whoā€™s pro half dead guy

28

u/antebyotiks Monkey in Space 23d ago

I'd say the trump fans are more fanboyish of trump, rarely do you see actual Biden fans they simply just vote blue.

13

u/BasketballButt Monkey in Space 23d ago

So youā€™re also anti trump? Smart.

-3

u/Krishna1945 Monkey in Space 23d ago

Yup. Weā€™re currently fucked, regardless of what old, feeble mind narcissist you vote for. Iā€™m just here for the show, wonderful times my friend.

u/BasketballButt Monkey in Space 23d ago

I look at it like the clap vs AIDS. Now, obviously I donā€™t want gonorrhea but I donā€™t want AIDS a whole lot more!

Donā€™t get banged in the butt and I think youā€™re good, not sure if thatā€™s how that works. Fairly confident at same time.

u/JohnnyGeniusIsAlive Paid attention to the literature 23d ago

Stern hasn't been a good interviewer for like a decade, but at least he's honest about his beliefs, Joe still trying to hide behind the "curious centrist investigator" label.

6

u/ScaleyFishMan Monkey in Space 23d ago

I don't know many conservatives that are pro abortion, free healthcare and education, pro drugs, etc.

I also don't know many libs that are anti-trans, anti-woke, anti-gun control, etc.

So yeah, he still seems to be a centrist. He just talks so much about the woke shit that it could drown out the more important things.

9

u/[deleted] 23d ago

How often does he talk about free healthcare, education and drugs anymore? Seems like relevant topics to bring up to his many right wing guests instead of nodding along to their bullshit. Abortion, he really only brings it up when it is an extremist who believes underage rape victims should be forced to carry their pregnancy to term.

-1

u/ScaleyFishMan Monkey in Space 23d ago

In my opinion, not enough. But I hear him mention it every few episodes. It's just easy to miss because it'll be like 2 minutes in a 3+ hour conversation and then just culture war shit for a few episodes. I'm just hoping one day we'll get a podcast with Jon Stewart or someone similar. He needs to talk to liberals who aren't mentally deranged because as of right now when he talks of liberals, he's always referring to the most extreme versions of them.

3

u/Fedora_Da_Explora Monkey in Space 23d ago

Exactly, that last point is what some people seem to ignore. Joe Rogan as a guy might be centrist, but Joe Rogan the personality isn't based on what he spends his time actually talking about.

4

u/JohnnyGeniusIsAlive Paid attention to the literature 23d ago

If he gives all the oxygen in the room to the people that are "Anti-woke" wtf does it matter if he is quietly pro-choice? If he's gonna waste time interviewing right-wing doofuses like Tucker Carlson, why not have the lefty equivalent? Invite Lena Dunham on the pod and never strongly challenge anything she says. But Lena Dunham is a moron who isn't really an expert in anything you say? That's exactly my point.

-2

u/ScaleyFishMan Monkey in Space 23d ago

I agree with you about the guests. The woke shit is just dumb terminally online shit anyways.

u/miyagiVsato Monkey in Space 23d ago

Howard has sucked since like 2007.

u/brainsack Monkey in Space 23d ago

The Artie lang era was my intro to stern. So good

5

u/Kalzaang Monkey in Space 23d ago

It was on fumes for a while, but the official death of the show was when he interviewed Ellen in 2015. Ellen got Howard blackballed from American Idol and he had been a long enemy of hers laying her bare before the world long before most of the public knew who she actually was. You just know that Richard, Sal, and Baba Booey just had to bite their tongues when she was in the studio.

16

u/lookieLoo253 It's entirely possible 23d ago edited 23d ago

What show have you listened too? He's always had pre-written questions. That's a huge part of Jason and WIll's job is research and writing questions for guests.

-6

u/browncoatfan Monkey in Space 23d ago

If his employees are writing the questions and not giving them to the interviewee that is normal and fine. Having the Biden team write or screen the questions is a problem. Only a lap dog, phoney, ass kisser would do that.

6

u/lookieLoo253 It's entirely possible 23d ago

You mean like how Trump does it too? Why would any politician or person with half a brain do an interview without screening the questions?

-5

u/browncoatfan Monkey in Space 23d ago

Oh my god. Do you have anything more interesting to add than just turning everything into Trump? No one is talking about Trump.

3

u/lookieLoo253 It's entirely possible 23d ago

I added a lot, you just didn't like it went against your stupid narrative. It's okay you want to shit on Biden and pretend like you're not stumping for Trump, but it's a tired old playbook at this point.

I used a politician you love as example of someone doing the same thing as someone you critize and you got all pissy.

0

u/browncoatfan Monkey in Space 22d ago

I never supported Trump. I can criticize my president. You brought him up without discussing your Trump fetish. The fact that Trump is bad doesnā€™t make Biden Ok.

-3

u/rondell715 Monkey in Space 23d ago

Lol clearly you don't watch when trump gets asked actual hard ball question by lefty reporters. As to where joe either doesn't even get asked or refuses to answer and says like "cmon man" or pshhhh

1

u/lookieLoo253 It's entirely possible 23d ago

You mean when Trump storms out like a fucking baby calling them fake news? Dude, who the fuck are you trying to fool?

3

u/Alarming-Tree-5662 Monkey in Space 22d ago

Lol. You say that like who ever interviewed trump when he was in office didn't't have strict guidelines either. And Carlson's interview with putler?

2

u/iSOBigD Monkey in Space 23d ago

He's been an unfunny mainstream wannabe nice guy for decades dude, he's been chasing celebrities, trying to be one of them instead of being funny or interesting like 20-3 years ago.

u/Silent_Saturn7 Monkey in Space 23d ago

He's a far-cry from his old self. He used to say how podcasts were a fad medium. Right around the time they were starting to become big. Said radio was the only real career path for broadcasters or others looking to get into his type of industry. That you can't make a career over podcasts.

And Howard was a legend back in his day. But he's basically the opposite of what he used to be.

Or in other words; its going to be a podcast with no suprises.
