I previously said, “Obviously its a bit left leaning, bit how could it not be with trump trying to rake away women’s rights…” ahhhhh that didn’t age

This was one of the few non NPR politics shows I could listen to. I hope they can make things right with Ben.

Guess now that Kissel’s an unperson that’s that. Was very handy to hear this perspective of American politics here in Australia.

Ben….sweet, soft, simple Ben. You were handed a gift by Henry in the form of a career and/or audience, but as is the case with most grown men who pay their bills via the largesse of better men, you blew it. Your mopey life story as presented is a laughable fabrication. Even now you blame a...Read full review »

These hosts are reviewing political news from a fair and funny perspective. Absolutely love it.

Few intellectual contributions, they mostly just call republicans names for a half hour. You’ll probably like it if you’re subscribed to the narrative of the left and not looking for actual dialogue

If you are a Liberal Democrat you will love this show. Enjoy.

I love LPN, and this show is mostly enjoyable. Lot of dudes. But my biggest gripe is the release schedule - I wish this would drop at the same time each week rather than maybe biweekly sometimes.

Meh
Meh.

If this were the ONLY polical media an absorber of news tuned into, I could posit an argument that this would be enough to keep one posted on the importance bullet points as we ride every nutso bananas news cycle. Thank you, Ben, Travis, and Fernando for making me laugh and cry at the same...Read full review »

Look into the CCP Golden Shares of China’s major businesses.

This used to be a decent centrist/libertarian entertainment politics podcast. Sadly, they’ve lost their minds and now believe the ‘Russian-bot’ propaganda. They’ve really gone down the rabbit hole on US neoliberal propaganda.

An extremely fun listening experience! Enjoy the banter and is definitely informative if you want a baseline depiction of our current political environment stateside. Thank you for doing the lords work every week. 🙏

I love this show! I just wish the host could learn to say Kamala Harris’ name!
Angry54321 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/23
Loved the show for a long time but I can’t with Travis and Fernando. They just repeat what Ben says in different words. They provide no analysis or perspective and it’s gotten increasingly annoying imo. I still wish they all the best.

I know it’s hard to find informed, entertaining political commentary these days. If that’s what you’re looking for, keep looking. I’m ok with bias; I’m not ok with stupidity. I expect more effort than just regurgitating MSM content.
jpwrunyan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/22
The guys do a great job, I love the conversation making it real. So all the nay sayers should look in political mirror and realize how ridiculous their talking (ranting) points are. All things in moderation, and these guys are left moderates at most. Love the idea of progressives and libertarians...Read full review »

the boringest takes on last week’s narratives
PrancyDan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/04/22
I see negative reviews saying the show is biased, but the truth tends to lean a bit left these days considering the right is actively stripping half of the country of their rights. I appreciate these guys always standing up for minorities, women, LGBTQIA people, and every day Americans. If that...Read full review »

I only lasted about 20 minutes in. Derision of Jill Biden for mispronunciation of bodega (yes, she should have prepped better!) from someone who mispronounces NUCLEAR….. someone who mispronounces FERNANDO….. I’m sure I’ll regret making this comment, but “people in glass houses….”?
Critic'sCritic via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/14/22
Just as the title says, it’s an unnecessary podcast. The hosts cover news in a joking manner, which very often comes across as making light of tragedies and the like. I don’t disagree with their politics, but it’s not particularly funny, they don’t have any original or insightful takes, and the...Read full review »
Hammergus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/22
I used to love this show and enjoyed the casual format that was still informative. It has devolved into reactionary rambling from all of the hosts. They wasted ~10min the other day talking about an AG saying “God always has a plan”… who cares?? This isn’t helping me better understand local or...Read full review »

This podcast used to be my favorite but is gone through a slow decline into unfactual nonsense mostly coming from Ben’s co-host. Still love Ben though!
ttkk8787 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/11/22
Man I really love LPTOL but bens politics are just a regurgitation of the same nonsense we get brow beaten with every day. The show is advertised as being unbiased, I guess when you have a political science degree that just means you’re not a Stalin apologist commie.. I just want the news guey!
Hop mane via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/01/22
I used to love this show and used it to keep informed, but lately it’s become so focused on potty humor and Ben’s opinion that I’ve had to stop. I want to know what’s happening in my world and where my attention should be, not that Biden farted followed by a two minute bit about it. It’s also...Read full review »

Just started LPOTL and decided to listen to Top Hat. Hooked after one episode. I tell my HS and MS students “you’re right send where someone else’s begin” all the time. Loved hearing it from the most recent episode with Puti… I mean Bush! Love it!!
Hepburn84 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/22
the only pausible way to navigate through us politics. What are they doin over there? these guys make me happy, being miserable.
Malinskis via Apple Podcasts · Sweden · 05/24/22
Thank you telling your story.
Vote2018 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/21/22
These dudes don’t invest time in research - Travis just wants his taste of the LPN fame and thinks the way to be popular is to spread ignorant far left rhetoric that he read in an opinion post - so don’t waste your time on them. What used to be an informative, easy listening show has become...Read full review »

These guys make listening to anything political fun and entertaining! I can handle mundane shows on finance but could never catch on with political podcast except this one, thanks you guys!
Pretty useful via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/11/22
Listener day one. Always identified with Ben’s common sense politics in a bizarrely polarized American landscape. Fantastic show. One wish: LPN hire or consult an historian (namely discussing Russia, Ukraine, and 20th century history as a whole). Finger always on the pulse, just excited to see...Read full review »

This show is just terrible & horribly biased/uninformed.

Notsoincrediblehulk via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/13/22
Keeps it simple, breaks down political issues and news to common sense. Provides facts separate from their opinions, so even if I don’t agree with specific points I’m still learning. Can’t wait for new episodes! Wish it was longer/more often lol
zomg93 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/22
I’ve been listening since 2015. I disagree with Ben’s politics a lot but I almost always agree with his heart. He’s the kind of host who inspires thought, not ire. He really is lovely. Fernando and Travis have been a fun addition. Shout out to Marcus and Travis Morningstar who helped make the...Read full review »

Top Hat (and that sweet sweet Jackie from Page 7) are the only reason I switched apps back in the day… I am SO HAPPY TO HAVE Y’all back on this one! *issues polite golf clap*
JesiBe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/08/22
Bad
I like LPN and Ben but It is painful to listen to him stumble through the issues of today.
ajdaylay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/22
But it’s still great!
SuperCaveman1984 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/22
I’ve lost a lot of respect for Ben this year. The show is no longer critical of the establishment. It’s been Trump obsessed for far too long. Also Ben claims to be a libertarian, but he’s basically a suburban Bidenite. You can do much better.
