FYI: I didn't make it through even 50% of the podcast because of the sheer incoherence on Kanye's part.

#22Even though I've enjoyed a lot of the Lex interviews in the past, I think this is really exploitative. A man with bipolar disorder is having a major manic episode and everybody is shoving microphones in front of him and getting upset when what he says sounds crazy.

As a casual listener of Lex's podcasts, my position is now to ignore him unless a good reason for this guest right now can be made clear. I can imagine Lex himself talking about openness and diversity etc but this just reeks of opportunism.
Lex comments that he doesn’t care about the “clickbait” and that he likes Kayne as an artist, but he spends 85+% of the interview talking about the famous Kayne tweet. It’s nothing more than cashing a check on the back of a man who is suffering a public mental breakdown.

#27Lex wrongly assumes you can reason with and even find value in the rantings of somebody who is suffering from mental illness.

The problem with this reasoning is that people can say things that sound crazy without it being a symptom of a mental disorder.
