Tim mocks California Governor Gavin Newsom for starting a podcast (allegedly copying Tim's format and guest Steve Bannon) instead of governing his ash-heap of a state, and jokes about Newsom's rebrand attempt.

In this bit5 moments
  • Gavin Newsom has launched a podcast, apparently copying Tim's format by having Steve Bannon on.
  • Tim argues politicians shouldn't be podcasting—Newsom has a job running California, the seventh largest economy in the world.
  • Tim wonders if Newsom will read ads on the podcast while people in his state struggle to find housing.
  • During the election cycle, people said podcasters have too much power, but the solution isn't for governors to start podcasting themselves.
  • Tim describes Newsom's move as an admission: 'If I can't beat them I will join them'—claiming it's the most insane thing he's seen.
