“Great topic for an intelligent balanced discussion. As I understand, an important critique of how the US ended up with over 500k troops in Vietnam in 1968 in a practical stalemate was the purge of the State Department during the McCarthy red scare period of late 1940’s-early 1950’s. The lack of...”Read full review »

“I finished the latest episode on “How Does The US Government Get Detained Americans Home?” on my run this morning. Peter and his team pack so much into each of their podcast episodes. It’s honestly one of the best produced and informative podcasts minute for minute out there. Thorough deep...”Read full review »

“Superb news podcast for those who are tired of the doom scrolling and never ending breaking news cycle. A way to get the news without sensationalism and constant “the world is ending” rhetoric. Calm, deep, thoughtful analysis. 60 Minutes for your ears. If you were giving up on news, this is the...”Read full review »

“Peter completely ruins this. Could have had a great all round conversation. Instead the ridiculous’fact checking’ interludes were absolutely pathetic and biased. Who in their right mind is getting ‘truth’ from Bergen?! Just talk. Let the listener do their research and come to their own...”Read full review »

“A wealth of information. Peter is brilliant and going “in the room” with Peter is a great way to go straight to the source and get even-handed information. I wait for the alert for the next pod cast release.”

“Props for having him on. But this was the worst interview ever. With all due respect, you are not a real journalist. And it’s very clear that if you ever were one; your long tenure with CNN has corrupted your thinking.
This interviewer made so many cases for ignoring healthy skepticism. So...”Read full review »
