“I subscribed to thus because I never miss a chance to hear the incomparable Brooke. I don’t watch House of Cards due to the cognitive dissonance of Princess Buttercup being married to Keyser Soze. Notwithstanding, this pod cast is wonderful! It’s evenhanded, smart, witty, insightful and very...”Read full review »
