Star Treatment
Does prominence change the questions? Every guest, plotted: their public prominence (rated 1–10 by an LLM, methodology below) against the host pushback they met, measured from every diarized word of their episodes.
An aggregate AI reading of public interviews: pushback per exchange, plotted against guest prominence. It describes questioning patterns across the whole catalogue, not any single guest, and every point opens to its episode. full disclaimer →
