Tim Pool is alright depending on the guest. He reads a news story and then gives his opinion on it. I wouldn’t say he claims to have unbiased opinions. He tells you what his biases are throughout most of the podcasts.
If you listen to enough of him you’ll catch things that aren’t factually correct sometimes and a few viewpoints that just don’t make a lot of sense. Usually he covers himself with, “now I could be wrong, but didn’t…” Sometimes I think, you do have the internet, can’t you just look the thing up. Maybe he doesn’t want to interrupt the free form discussion, I don’t know. I do appreciate that Joe Rogan will have Jaime look stuff up during the actual show just to make sure he’s not spouting too much b.s.
Lately, I’ve gotten away from listening to him because he’ll read a biased piece of news intended to rile up the right and then act riled up and shocked about it for the next 20 minutes. Then I do some research and find the news he was reading exaggerated something or was just reporting hearsay which may or may not have been true. After seeing him do this over and over, I kind of just got tired of it.
He is interesting to listen to and I’m sure he’ll keep a large viewership for quite some time. He sounds very convincing. His debates are not all that great, he really should stop doing them. He wants people to agree and does surround himself with “yes, people”, so he essentially melts down when he’s facing someone with a strong opposing viewpoint.

This to me was how I basically viewed him the short amount of time I spent watching his stuff in Highschool.
He’s claims to be a left-winger with right wing tendencies. When at this point he’s just a right-winger with left wing tendencies or, he actually is a left-winger but he knows the majority of his audience isn’t and plays to them for views, so either way I can’t respect it. I’ll watch right wing content but I didn’t come to be gaslit and basically lied too.
Maybe because he’s friends with a bunch of people from VICE/Occupy Wall Street days that’s why he doesn’t just outright identifies as a center right guy.

Actually Tim has said time and again he is a "fence sitter", and has received criticism for not picking sides.

Except he's not really a fence-sitter. If you listen to what he actually wants, he wants leftist policies without the leftist crazy. That's what makes him a "fence-sitter" in his mind.
As he gets older and wiser (I'm his age lol) he'll continue to drift towards sanity (ie Libertarianism).

Some people will never forgive him for advocating 2A after Steven Crowder gave him a custom AR-15.
While other people think Tim is insane for thinking Tulsi is "moderate" democrat.
He's okay, a bit bland. I think he's very cautious about what he says seeing the proclivity of the techies to silence any voice that doesn't support the establishment's narratives.
timid tim is constantly second-guessing himself.
he's not bad but there are so many more interesting voices out there: Matt Walsh, Chris plante, derek hunter, dinesh d'souza, levin, raheem kassam, bongino, shapiro, etc.

pool usually falls off the end of my list.
I usually stick with Styxhexenhammer and Matt Christansen

Even though I've crossed over (been pushed) into far right, I can't stand most of the guys on that list. Bongino is pretty great though. DW crew just grind my gears for their blatant hypocrisy (selective religiosity).

Styx is a little weird but Matt is one of my favorites (especially when he has to reel Blonde in). Although I'll never forgive him for changing his outro
But on topic, when known liberals like Pool, Aaron Mate, Jimmy Dore, Glenn Greenwald, etc are suddenly being tarred as far right, you know the other side is bonkers.
I think he is one of the least biased people out there. Really enjoy his take on most things.
I've never heard of Tim Pool, so I can't judge him. But your response, like most Americans', could be reworded as "he says things I agree with, therefore I like him and think he is unbiased."
