The top one that springs to mind is the Joe Rogan Experience. Wildly popular, and reveals a massive market for long form in-depth discussion. If I look at a recent episode, he just had Tulsi Gabbard on - US Hose of Reps, endorsed Joe Biden now a Republican [0].
It isn't academic fare, but Tulsi Gabbard for 2.5 hours is a much more high-information look into US politics than anything that could be considered mainstream in the early 2000s.
[0] My mistake, she's technically an independent. Should spend some time listening to Joe Rogan I suppose.

- telotortium 3y agoNo, Joe Rogan (and most alt media) responds to the NYT, while the NYT doesn't respond to Joe Rogan except to smear him. That is the test of whether a media source is mainstream, or at least respectable - does the NYT cite it seriously or ignore it except to denigrate it?
