He revealed himself.
While Trump pushed him further into Prog land, it mostly pushed Dan into the light. He played middle of the road pretty effectively for a lot of the years. Interestingly today he says he was never middle of the road, he's always been a radical.

Thanks for the Metrics, interesting. Looks like his big boost in popularity was when he kicked us out of his house :lol:

Never seemed middle of the road to me, World War Two; "The Whole War was a War Crime"?

What road is that the middle of? Jane Fonda Ville. Said so at the time, got banned for it.

When Rogan shut down his forum, he didn't even let the mods know ahead of time. He just *poofed* it. I suspect it's related to image, more than any other thing.

Too bad he had no follow up plan other than becoming a semi-retired podcaster with no meaningful web presence.

Plus ... how much of the boost was due to previous users flooding in to read the good-bye messages and take one last look at the old DCF before it vanished? I find that possibility more likely than a bunch of newbs randomly flocking to his drastically reduced website because “thank god those horrible forumers are finally gone”.

Yeah, a lot of old timers stopped by for the first time in years.
Twitter followers are so fucking fickle.............. it's funny Dan still talks about how the model for the show was to go for the few people that found his stuff interesting, don't try to please the masses. But hey, you get an agent and what's he tell you ?

Those bomb throwers are bad for your brand, you need to be on twitter getting followers, you need to get out and do interviews.

I wonder if Rogan recommended he do that ?

The DCF was the show, when he fled the DCF, he didn't have much to talk about anymore, because he wasn't talking to anybody, he was just in his ivory tower, and it was clear that he was lacking any inspiration for it, the DCF drove the show, you could see it in real time, he was stealing shit from us all the time and putting it in his shows.

Not just him. I can name two other podcasts that stole my shit directly from the DCF boards and made no bones about it.
