Comedian argues young men need alternative voices before they're radicalized by Andrew Tate

What was said

"TV producers come to mine and Mike's stand-up shows and be like, do you ever worry that your audience are the type that might be in the manosphere? And I'm like, that's really the opposite of a worry for me. Because if I can get a hold of them before Tate does, then they're not going to become these sort of fucked up, like, misogynist, violent, like, abusive partners. Someone has to talk to these people."

Angelone pushes back against TV producers concerned his comedy attracts potential incel audiences, arguing it's crucial to reach young men before extreme influencers like Andrew Tate do. He says his podcast with Mike provides male intimacy and soft masculinity modeling, citing Jordan Peterson as someone who spoke to him constructively as a young man. He warns that abandoning young men creates a vacuum filled by the worst influences.
