I remember someone at the purple place who worked with Dolan at LBC saying he always came across as liberal/slightly left wing.(12-03-2023, 02:00 PM)Kojak Wrote: Mark is a stand up comedian. So how on Earth is he so wooden?!He worked well on Balls of Steel to be fair. I think the issue with Dolan is he doesn’t believe half the stuff he comes out with so it’s not very authentic. Cristys has some more charisma but comes across as someone who’s just regurgitates lines he’s used other right wing commentators use in the past only with a lot of energy.
It’s not an anti-right wing thing either, there are some commentators on the right who come across as intelligent and with interesting ideas. Even Mark Steyn brought something different to the table, despite being a borderline conspiracy theorist and only having his mates on the programme.
