A relieving show. . . .well at least the ideology is. . . .
I feel that this is the best political talk show out there. Instead of trying to entertain, the news is unspinned and across the political spectrum. Some conclusions reached on the show may give the impression that KCRW has a liberal bias, but in fact, what is happening is that we have arrived at a place in our nation’s history when anything spoken poorly about the current administration will be viewed as such. In recent years, it has become clear that Ludwig Borne was quite right when he said, “Only the suppressed word is dangerous”; but equally dangerous is the manipulated word. I am a 16 year old who goes through extensive studies on this topic. I don't know how FOX News can carry the name "News". In a study conducted over twenty-one weeks, guests that appeared on Fox News were 83% Republican, and 17% Democrat. How is that "News"? Thirty-three percent of Fox News viewers believe that weapons of mass destruction were found in Iraq. Thirty-five percent believe that the other nations of the world favor our occupation of Iraq. Sixty-seven percent believe that we found ties between Al Qaeda and Saddam Hussein. The fabrications that Fox News presents as facts favor, the views and goals of the Bush administration.Read full review »

Political discussions with commentators from opposite ends of the political spectrum who talk to each other like rational human beings. Can we clone these people, please? If more of the talking heads on TV and other radio stations behaved like this, well, we'd probably all keel over from the...Read full review »

OK, other than being a little unbalanced -- Tony Blankley is the only conservative voice you will hear -- this is one of my can't miss podcasts. As the into says, it is (usually) an alternative to the screaming talking heads.  Everyone who enjoys political talk will find something to like in...Read full review »
