Not only has it gone viral (the show currently has 250,000+ subscribers and attracts more than a million views per episode), but the weekly broadcast is executively produced by legendary US talk show host Larry King.

Add to this an unlikely mix of outspoken-but-interesting guests (John McCain, Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Tommy Robinson, to name but three) and the rebellious appeal of The Rubin Report quickly becomes self-evident.

Not that Rubin necessarily agrees with everything his interlocutors say, of course. The show opposes sensationalism as much as it does censorship, but it ultimately understands the importance of open debate, no matter what the subject matter. A crucial factor that’s often lacking elsewhere.
