Kindness without killing it
See title. Great show if you want the American subcohort gossip, perhaps less satisfying if you want the show to be something else. Affable hosts do their research. I love this show, in general, but wonder if the hosts are beginning to fall a little too in love with their bigger platform and guests. Agree with previous commenters that the show doesn’t talk enough about race, and really agree that these ancillary/spin-off episodes dilute the original concept and brand. But I do crack up when the historian Rick Perlstein fact-checks the show in the Patreon comments. A lot of the subjects of this show teach us that you can’t please everyone, but I think the show is not getting close enough to the bone about the someone’s in this movement who literally want to kill their political opponents! But as the Simpsons said, “it’s a helluva toboggan ride!”

Very thoughtful history and analysis. Appreciate particularly perspectives on the often subtle monsters of contemporary conservativism / right wing.

I have conservative sympathies but enjoy tuning in to hear these two riff on their ideological opponents. Their erudition and good faith arguments makes them listenable even when they’re fumbling around conservative tenets

A very exciting idea for a podcast, already off to a great start.
