Summary

Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to Gad Saad, Peter Boghossian, and Michael Shermer about the rise and fall of the intellectual dark web.

Why did it fall apart? What have its members been up to? Most importantly, what is their role in these times as woke politics completely take over our institutions? Learn more about your ad choices.
