Tim Pool is an American political commentator and podcast host. He first became known for live streaming the 2011 Occupy Wall Street protests. He joined Vice Media and Fusion TV in 2014, later working on YouTube and other platforms.

Tomorrow he will be sitting down with Francis and Konstantin.
Comment your questions for the guys to ask him at the end of the interview.
Hi Tim, the "Civil War" comment has almost become a meme on the show but seriously - as every year passes the actual chances of "something happening" increase, how would you rate that right now? I see they way you compare now to the timeline of the civil war and if you pick some moments a student in 2075 could easily say "well obviously it started with the (blanc) in 2020- that led to (blank) in 2024 and then in 2026 it all kicked off" we could already be in a cold one
Provocative question but does Tim have any thoughts as to why Russia were apparently willing to pay such a relatively large amount of money via Tenet Media to fund his podcast albeit unknowingly to Tim himself?
Basically in Tim's own view what benefit might Russia derive from the kind of content he makes?
