Sure, it's fun to make jokes about his questions and podcast or call it cringe etc. But that's exactly what he wants you to do.
He's basically the Rakhi Sawant of podcasters. Any attention is good attention for him since it's free publicity.
He intentionally asks dumb/weird questions because -
1. Inspired by Joe Rogan who also doesn't hold back from asking seemingly obvious questions
2. Many people do have them in their mind as well, just too afraid to ask
3. Even memes and ridicule make him a well known brand and personality outside of his target audience
He's definitely super smart, trying to act dumber than he is because it lets him get away with stuff. It was obvious enough when he came to Nikhil Kamath's podcast.
Plus the diverse categories he's exploring, along with the level of folks he now has access to is pretty impressive all things considered.
I used to dismiss him mostly, but I've come to realise he's going to be a force to reckon with in the years to come. Wouldn't be surprised to see him in politics either.
