James Patrick Anthony Dore is an American stand-up comedian, political commentator, podcaster and YouTube personality. He is the host of The Jimmy Dore Show, a comedic political talk show available on Rokfin, Rumble, Twitter and YouTube. Appearing on programs like The Tucker Carlson Show, The Joe Rogan Experience, and The Rubin Report, Dore frequently references and recommends foundational texts in psychology and political critique. On multiple occasions, he suggested Carl Jung's autobiography, Memories, Dreams, Reflections, as an ideal starting point for exploring Jung's perspective on the emptiness of the clergy and early psychological development. Dore also brought up Jung's The Undiscovered Self to draw parallels with contemporary societal issues. In discussions concerning mainstream media ownership, corporate influence, and the political establishment, he referenced Edward S. Herman and Noam Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent. Additionally, he discussed Thomas Frank's Listen Liberal to critique the moralizing behavior of the political class and Bill Clinton's presidency, and referenced Christopher L. Hayes's Twilight of the Elites during conversations about the corrupting nature of proximity to the donor class.
