It sounds to me that his monetary incentives inform how his information is going to be presented, which informs me as to why the show should be ignored in its entirety. I can be advertised to anywhere. I don't want someone to make the advertisement more palatable for me.
I see your perspective, but his guests don't kowtow to him. Matt Odell pulls no punches with him abour BlockFi, and he's still a frequent guest. In fact, in the latest episode I heard this morning Odell is still giving him shit. Peter is honest about his motivations and fuckups.

I mean, that's a perspective you can have of course. More fruitful conversation happened as a result of BlockFi advertising on his show than happened anyplace else. I think Pete has done more for the space by engaging with these issues directly and publicly than any podcaster I can think of.

I agree, and I'm sure yesterday's episode with Matt Odell about blue check twitter changed some minds besides Peter's.
