I really enjoyed the whole 2022 season but particularly liked the big picture perspectives that you gave in the last episode after the election. I love Plouff’s grounded takes and commentaries whenever I can get them. (MSNBC, etc). Just happened to find out that you were doing this podcast this...Read full review »

Just another hack from the left who can’t look at elections objectively.

Thanks for focusing on Michigan - great guests! A few comments: 70% of those who voted in 2020, did so before the election (up from 29% in ‘18), due to both the first cycle of no-excuse absentee voting and, of course the pandemic. More than half of those who voted early, did so by October 15....Read full review »

Love the podcast. I’m just sad that Ohio didn’t make the list. Maybe we will in 2024!

Out of all my political podcasts, I enjoy this one the best. It’s insightful and thought provoking. Love it!

Just another Bank Bail out alumni profiteering off the backs of a party that has turned its back on Working Class and The New Deal at every given opportunity.

Thanks so much, David Plouffe and the rest of the team, for this extremely valuable podcast. With Plouffe as host and a series of top-level guests, this show provides deep insight and practical guidance for progressive political activists across the country. As one of the leaders of the largest...Read full review »

What happened? Suddenly, your podcast isn’t on anymore. Just because the election is over, doesn’t mean you should stop. I value your opinions and perspective and would like to listen to your and your guests’ thoughts every week. Thanks!

Ok
David is very good. Smart obviously. But he drones in too much often, and this podcast is the king of commercials. More than any other podcast. If you compare it to others, like the Bulwark or James Carville’s, or Hacks on Tap, it’s a lot. I’d tell David to tighten it up. Less commercials.

Thanks Plouffie!

I see those that agree/disagree with their reviews, in this age of information you can see the listeners that have an idea what they get themselves into. If the host was by a senior Bush/Trump advisor, those 1 star review would be mirrored to 5. There’s punditry by everyone and I’m always...Read full review »
Fruitful Listener via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/20
Your podcast begins with an ad—read by Jon Meacham promoting his podcast in an unbearably dramatic and Narcissistic manner. You need to fix this. Get someone else to read it. Or just cut the whole damned thing if you can afford it. You recognize that Meacham thinks that Reagan was a great...Read full review »

Plouffe is extraordinary. His political analysis is so insightful. Love listening to him, particularly his opening remarks.
KermitDermit via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/25/20
This is a one sided view, not giving the people both sides of the election. It’s ok the be a Trump hater, just make it known up front in your podcast. If you listen to the podcast you will clearly hear that the commentator supports Joe Biden. If your going to name you show Election HQ talk about...Read full review »

Would you please share this with her? I am 65 and lifelong D in Oklahoma. I listed meds to your interview with her while embalming my dog yesterday. She is on my heroes list.

This podcast is a wealth of insights into campaigns and elections for the average voter. Your listeners are well on their way to becoming election wonks!

I’ve long said that one of my great disappointments is that I didn’t get to work with David Axelrod and David Plouffe, and this podcast has only deepened my appreciation for their skill and knowledge and humanity. Plouffe gives us an inside look at what is going on in this crucial election cycle...Read full review »

Terrible podcast - do not waste your time listening to this as it is all one-sided, and you learn nothing from listening to this unfortunagely. Much better podcasts available where you learn more, hear both sides to an argument, and not listen to the same blabber every podcast. Just a waste of...Read full review »
Bob Smith again via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/07/20
Dems are overlooking a scenario that could box themselves into a corner out of which Trump would illegitimately claim victory. First, and right now, the focus is on Trump's expected claim that the election is fraudulent if he loses. That is, if he doesn't win it is by definition...Read full review »

Thoughtful and measured. Never a rash or indigent line. Smart interviewer but still human. It’s what you wish cable news was.

Love this podcast and look to David for his expertise. However, he really needs a new mic! There always seems to be some kind of audio distortion with his mic. Like he’s sitting at the other end of a table from the mic. I’m not sure what it is but he should reach out to Crooked Media for advice...Read full review »

America will NEVER turn socialist/ communist. To many of me and not enough of you. You guys are only 12%.
Freddie bag of donuts via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/20
This super unrated podcast is followed by world leaders, most American billionaires, every top political strategist, professionals and educators. How do I know this? Because sometimes too many times events that are discussed in the pod materialize. Large audience is a plus but having the ear of...Read full review »

Love each episode. Last 4 years have been very difficult and intensifying as we get closer to election. Great respect for you and your guests expertise on critical topics. Especially appreciated topic on all things voting. Gives me some comfort.

A breath of clear, fresh political air! It’s one of the few podcasts that keeps me from climbing the walls during these outrageous times.

Great guy and very smart individual. If you need political consulting, he’s the guy you need to talk to.
Zaya9 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/20
David and David (Plouff and Axelrod) are the silent geniuses of this century. David’s views are ingrained with data that is near and dear to my heart. Having President Obama on the cast last week was a remarkable gift to his audience. Believe it or not, this is a must listen pod.

I admire and love him, smart and passionate. Have inspired thousands of people all over the world.
vikavhf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/17/20
Extremely simple-minded explanations on complicated issues. Don’t waste your time if you’re looking for the truth. But, if you’re looking for the DNC’s marketing spin, this is the place to be.
