Even allowing this link on this website is pretty close to hate speech.

I take it we're hating on the man and not the content of any particular podcast?
I've listened to the podcast repeatedly (Dan Carlin was a guest, that's how I found it), there's nothing alt-right about it, just right/conservative on issues of guns/hunting/gender, but not on issues of finance, for example. I guess "pro speech" is "alt right now". The guests are wide-ranging; some right, some alt-right, some far left.
I dunno he had an episode with Alex Jones that basically didn't press him on anything and gave him a really soft ride. I think that's the sort of thing people are alluding to when they call him a breadcrumb-dropper.
Just because the guests aren't uniformly Alex Jones and co doesn't mean that that claim can't be true, in my opinion.
If you can watch that episode and not be laughing your head off you are taking life far too seriously.
