Now that he has a massive audience, it's "you have to go on his podcast!", which flies in the face of their history of burying people who have gone on his podcast. If no one from the left will go on, who does that cede the field to? They did it to themselves.

You're framing media exposure as some kind of left vs right even playing field, when in reality it's interests of the billionaire class vs anything else. Joe Rogan, Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson and all those other podcasters have the backing of the billionaire class, ergo they get the exposure.
