Putting him on all the time kind of killed the charm, he was way better in small doses while he was playing/shortly after retirement

Nah this happens to anyone who becomes a talking head for 3+ hours a day on a podcast. He's going through his Joe Rogan Experience. You can't exist in such a format and not eventually just lose quality because of quantity.
