Mundane observations.
I don't know why, but Jamaican crime classic The Harder They Come (1972) being advertised with line “Infinitely more intelligent than Last Tango in Paris” is hilarious to me.

It might be moving, but it is confusing. I've seen that movie half a dozen times, and I still don't know who the real Spartacus is. And that is what makes that movie a classic "whodunit"

Well, yes. I'd argue it's not him that is explicitly conservative, not in a traditional sense at least, as much as he is appealing to conservatives. As well as some liberals.

Joe Rogan is Joe Rogan because of his non-critical approach to everything. He brings almost everyone to his podcast, no matter how wacky, dumb or toxic. Along with a number of "normal" guests that gives him a dose of legitimacy.
There is no "liberal" framework though which this can be done.
