@Nick Traeger in all fairness I posted my original comment before listening to the entire podcast. I'm also disappointed that people I respect(ed) are buying into turning the tables of discrimination instead of trying to move forward together. As the God-awful-father of anti-racism, Ibram Kendi says, "the only remedy to past discrimination is current discrimination and the only remedy to current discrimination is future discrimination". That sounds an awful lot like an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind and it punishes my children of something they are not guilty of. To me, that makes no sense and only serves to divide us against ourselves. People that don't support BLM are not pro-racism they are pro-thoughtful discussion and resent the aggressively enforced inability to engage in one.

@@JohnSmith-yd5wq Originally, he didn't make millions because the original contract was before the show became a hit. Several people involved with the show confirmed this, they barely got paid for the 2 seasons because it started as an experiment with a C/D list celebrity. The show was 2.5 seasons in and they were negotiating an extension; at this point, the show was a huge hit so he had some leverage during negotiations. The reason he stepped away was because they wanted him to tone down his show and language to attract more sponsors and a wider audience. He walked away because he wanted the freedom to do his comedy his way. He's doing the same thing now. While other people are afraid of being canceled, he keeps doing his comedy his way.
