The same reason people listen to Joe Rogan (anti woke crowd), or Ethan Klein (socially inept commies) , or Chrissie mayer (childless 30 something's).
The audience is a reflection of the podcaster. They see the podcaster as somebody who would fit in with their friend group.
In the case of mullen/friedland, It's the same crowd as Rogan, except they think they're witty/highbrow because they see Rogan and co as slow boomers and are off put by the" in your face" masculinity.
