1/6 Yesterday I came very close to having @WileyCEO on my podcast. After a string of anti-Semitic tweets, he called out any Jew who'd debate him. Obv he wasn't getting on TV with those views, bt I'd love to have made him look like a fool in an interview so jumped at the chance...
2/6 ... @WileyCEO promptly followed me and slid into my DMs...
3/6 ...he agreed and @WileyCEO delayed while I sat in the call...he even started sending me Zoom invites himself but didn't reveal the password...
4/6 ...he replied with nonsensical delaying stuff when I told him I was waiting...(he's still calling Jews cowards for not rising to his challenge.)...
5/6 ...and this went on for hours...
6/6 ...some people were upset that I was offering him a (relatively small) platform. I believe in letting bad ideas linger in the air like bad smells, before disappearing, rather than forcing underground to fester & grow.

Really interested, what do you guys think?
