One of the leaders of the so-called Intellectual Dark Web (IDW), Dave Rubin has risen to prominence over the last five years as the host of "The Rubin Report" talk show, in which he engages in long-form discussions with political and cultural thinkers from across the ideological spectrum.

In 2016, Rubin and his team announced that they were parting ways with Ora TV, which had previously produced "The Rubin Report," and began operating his show independently, relying on Patreon and other sources of revenue.

From Sam Harris to Jordan Peterson, Brigitte Gabriel to Bret Weinstein, Peter Thiel to Debra Soh, and even The Daily Wire’s own Ben Shapiro, Rubin’s roster of guests run the philosophical gamut. As of publication, "The Rubin Report" YouTube channel has 895,000 subscribers and over 190 million total views.
