Theo! Mr. Von is great, as is Tucker. This interview was more like 2 guys shooting the breeze over a bottle of fine 35 yr scotch. 2.5 hours and I was never bored, and could listen to a few hours more. The humility and honesty these two shared about themselves was the best. Man, I laughed out loud so much

I felt the same way. I didn't want it to end. I want to go into the forest with Tucker when the apocalypse hits.

Sasha, I imagine that the Gaza-Israel situation might be a struggle for you because of your previous experience in going against the group you weee once in with, your heritage and family connections, and the sheer brutality of it. Meanwhile the practical matters of recent move, engaged readership and journalistic integrity are non-trivial. So please know that many of us are indeed supportive and appreciative readers of your work not least because you have an incredible ability to weave facts, emotions and insights into a storybook; a telling of a story such that we get the characters, plot, motives, consequences, etc. Your storytelling is brilliant and if you need to address the Gaza-Israel situation then best wishes. We are with you.

I really enjoyed that. I shared it with my daughters. They're in their twenties and love Theo. Wish the one lived closer for when the shit hits the fan.

Sasha,

Given your support for Tucker Carlson and the many people reading your substack who support Tucker Carlson, I would be interested in hearing people's impressions of and responses to a just published article in Vanity Fair, "The Untold Story of Tucker Carlson’s Ugly Exit From Fox News" by Brian Stelter. Here is a link to the piece:

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2023/10/tucker-carlsons-ugly-exit-from-fox-news .

If someone finds a reply to this article, please share it. I for one would very much like to hear a good response to Stelter.

Bwahahaha. Do you think there is any chance anyone would care about this idiocy? I know it's priority number one for the Puritans to attempt to control how everyone else thinks and that it bothers you that there is a thing called dissent. I have learned by now, sadly, that we never get real journalism anymore. We get their side. And since we've not heard the other side I would warn against taking their word for it.

Stetler was mocked by Carlson, as were all of the talking heads on CNN - in fact, you could say, his entire reputation was ruined by Carlson calling him out. So yeah, I'd take it with a grain of salt, brah.

Sasha,

As always, I am grateful for your response. However I had hoped that you might address the actual content of the article rather than simply attack the author. What interests me are Stelter's factual assertions concerning Carlson, not the alleged personal animosity between the two.

For example, Stelter presents Carlson as being deeply misogynist, vulgar, and crude. He depicts Carlson as antagonistic to his Fox News colleagues and as creating a hostile workspace. He presents evidence from the Dominion Systems lawsuit disclosures. Clearly Stelter’s depiction sharply diverges from Carlson's on screen personality.

Hence my request: Would you care to address those documented charges or point me to someone who actually does do so?

Again, thank you for your thoughts.

Factual assertions? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Why is it that you only show up on Sasha’s substack when Tucker or Trump are featured. You have double TDS.

Studies have shown that the two syndromes are highly correlated and very difficult to cure without subjecting the patient to real world experiences.

You seem like a kind soul... Vanity Fair? Totally shone to be a lapdog of the Left.

Tucka is a voice of reason, and, therefore a model for derision for the Left.

Suzie,

Please note that you failed to address any of the specific issues that Brian Stelter raised in his article. Instead you have simple attacked the article's author. In logic such as a response is known as the argumentum ad hominem fallacy.

Instead, it would be very interested if you or a Tucker Carlson supporter could respond to the actual content of Stelter’s essay. As I already noted, Stelter makes a number of specific assertions concerned Tucker Carlson. Are those statements true?

Stelter assertions are just that: assertions. The whole article is him throwing around all kinds of “could be’s, might be’s, possibles” and innuendo’s and hearsay.

He obviously hasn’t gotten over his obsession with Carlson whom he used to berate almost nightly on his now defunct CNN show, on which he used to be a constant purveyor of continual lies and misinformation about just about everything.

I wouldn’t trust him any further than I could throw him.

Thanks much, as always. I appreciate the heads up when there’s a new release and the alternative ways to watch.

He does a very good job of the long form interview, always letting his guests talk - rather than the mindless narrative-hammering bots that shriek over everyone in the mainstream media.

Anyone who is so desperately suppressed by all the mainstream mouthpieces is absolutely worth supporting.

As always, I appreciate these Tucker videos. Whether you agree with him on a particular issue or not, Tucker is always interesting to watch.
