“Oh my goodness, am I listening to Slate or to the Spawns of David Broder Podcast. These three hipsters are so knowing and cool, that they can't be bothered with the facts or looking for anything alternative to the inside the beltway, bartalk babble. Emily Bazelon is adorable and insightful on Supreme Court issues, but oh so meek and girly on everything else. She FEELS like she should stickup for Obama, but she just doesn't know how.

I like the comradery between the three hosts and the different perspectives they each give ... even though they may all agree with one side of a yes/no issue, they all break the simple issue down and explain their rational fully ... they asked for...”Read full review »

“I just started listening to this podcast and it has become one of my favorite political podcasts. Although certainly not unbiased (it does lean to the left), I have found this is one of the few political podcasts that is not specifically trying to advocate a certain ideology. The only real...”Read full review »
