Since Russell finally got banned from YouTube and started his exclusive Rumble live show I've watched/listened to parts of the first three episodes while at work. The show feels a lot like a British slightly-left take on "Louder with Crowder" in format including the banter with some of the crew occasionally seen behind the camera. He's had a few interview guests on as well. The show is definitely a crash course in red pills and looks like it's aimed at moderates and recovering lefties who are starting to wonder just what the hell is going on. I have been recommending it to some people on that basis as if they can't get someone who is curious to listen to a right-winger like Crowder (and don't want to give traffic to Dim Fool) maybe this show will at least hold their attention.
And I know someone will bring up that photo of him with Noah Harari. I put that photo in the similar category as the old photo of Epstein with Trump before Trump banned him and Epstein's first arrest. It's an old photo, we haven't seen evidence of Brand still interacting with Harari, and Brand has meanwhile red-pilling people on the Great Reset and COVID for over a year now. I don't trust Brand a lot but he is an asset at this time and quite likely flipped or at least his interests are running parallel to ours for now.
He's not banned from youtube. One video was banned, that's all. I haven't watched the live show just because it's too long, but I generally like his regular videos.
