Checks and Balances
I find the discussions informative, both for the “Checks and Balances” episode and all the other episodes, but the lack of conservative voices in the discussions is very noticeable. For instance, in this episode there was no consideration of the economic impact of any of the proposed increases of government spending or increased taxation. Very glaring omissions. Again showing the inherent bias of Economist reporting, the 3 part CRT report was portrayed the CRT advocates very negatively, and completely ignored the involvement of the teachers unions in all the issues discussed in the report. Also, the interview with Senator Te Cruz was very pointed, yet the interview with the Biden economic advisor consisted of a series of softball questions with no critical follow up on any of her very specious answers.

Thanks for all adding the new longer format. I love listening to the full articles. There are plenty of podcasts covering the headlines these days, but this one is unique in that some select articles are read in full. It's great thing to listen to on my walk to work. Keep it up!Read full review »
