      I have a general policy of not appearing on the podcasts or shows of science denialists and conspiracy theorists like Bret Weinstein, actually.https://twitter.com/DocJohnG/status/1412801319925059592 …

      Would love to hear you talking with @BretWeinstein on the @DarkHorsePod about these analyses that directly contradict his apparently selective POV & that of the other docs he promotes that, in turn, promote #ivermectin (over #CovidVaccine).

      Your not giving false balance. These ppl have large massive audiences. Larger than even many TV audiences. Your not giving false balance, your educating the public. These podcasts and shows aren’t obscure. Millions of lay ppl, from every political perspective is watching them.

      You're not educating people if you're giving them the false impression that there is more balance between opposing viewpoints than the scientific evidence supports.

      Your assuming podcasts like Joe rogan are obscure and nobody is watching them. I am telling you, their audiences are larger than shows you see on msnbc and CNN. If you don’t come on their show, your losing the public debate. Ppl don’t watch local news or CNN like they use to.

      I wish this was true--that listeners of Weinstein & other right-wing podcasters are open to scientific expertise--, but they are not. They reject scientific consensus or expertise unless the "scientific" views confirm their beliefs.https://grist.org/politics/a-chat-with-chris-mooney-about-the-republican-brain/ …

      Indeed. The purpose of these shows is not education. It's entertainment and reinforcing the beliefs of the audience. The best one can hope for going on such a show is to avoid giving the conspiracy theorists ammunition through a gaffe or poorly stated position. That's the best.
