Radio Manu, Papa Tzango

What the fuck, people?

I'm so excited to have come back during this conversation with an episode of 10 Genuinely Speaking.

Today's guest is Jamie Kielstein, an interesting cat, at an interesting moment on his journey of life.

He is a standup comic, a writer or a radio host.

He is, I think in his mid-thirties and he's sat in his returning for this motherfucker, as they say.

He's going through changes.

He's prominent and he was on Conan and I don't know where prominent comics go.

Then he got into political commentary and became a presence on MSNBC, had a radio show

that as we learn in this episode was supported by Robin Williams behind the scenes, pretty cool.

Jamie sort of migrated into the world of left-wing certainty and became a bit of a social justice warrior

and calling out people for being insufficiently pure and all that kind of stuff.

His radio show took off and was doing quite well, but it was sort of my understanding from what he said is that it was sort of a place where those voices were concentrated.

He drank the Kool-Aid and he sort of became one of these people who go online and roll their eyes a lot about how dumb everyone else is

and attack people for not being the perfect individuals that everyone is pretending they are, but nobody really is.

As they say, when you ride the tiger, sometimes you end up inside the tiger, which kind of happened with Jamie.

He ended up getting embroiled in some controversy about his sexual behavior and his interactions with some of the women that he met.

Everything came crashing down and so he's re-evaluating his life, re-evaluating the path he's been on and picking up the pieces and putting shit back together.

He's going through a rebirth and some of the experience of being born again is painful and messy just like it was the first time.

Lots of blood and mucus involved, but it's worthwhile. All that blood and mucus. I think mucus makes the world go around when you get right down to it.

Anyway, Jamie Kielstein, this is an interesting conversation. You might find parts of it disturbing, offensive, a couple of white guys talking about women and minorities and shooting our mouths off as we tend to do.

I hope you'll forgive us our ignorance and not attack us too brutally in social media, which is a funny thing.
