Streisand effect in full force. I had never heard of Kimmel nor Kirk until psychopaths tried to silence them.

You'd never heard of Jimmy Kimmel?

Outside the US - I'd not heard of either of them too.

I'm outside the US too. Kirk makes sense, he was fairly niche. But Kimmel I'm surprised about. Have you heard of Jimmy Fallon and Conan O'Brien?

Heard of one of them, not the other. Couldn't tell you what they are or do though.
