In 2015, I found the phone number to radio host Jesse Lee Peterson's office, and around the same time had seen a clip of him saying that the "biggest mistake America ever made was allowing women to vote". I called the number to leave a message that I thought he was an "ignorant, sexist moron". [1]

The intern that answered the phone said "do you want to tell him yourself?", to which I quickly said "yes".

Jesse answered the phone, and I said "hey, Jesse Lee Peterson, I think you're an ignorant moron".

He replied back with "do you want to say this on the show tomorrow?" to which I said "absolutely". A producer reached out to me via email, and the next day I spoke to him on the radio for about 20 minutes. I doubt I convinced him or any of his listeners of anything, but at least I got to say my piece, for a lot longer than I thought I was going to.

While I still think he's an ignorant and sexist moron whose opinions have only gotten more radical and scary, I guess I'll give him a little credit for being a bit open to alternate arguments.

[1] Even if you disagree, don't try and convince me otherwise here, because you will not convince me otherwise in this case. If you don't know who he is, I advise that you don't Google him if you don't want to get depressed.
