Good idea, poor execution

“I wanted to like this one; I love the basic premise. I gave it 3 episodes. 1st is interesting, but 2 & 3 are just poor journalism. In the 2nd episode, the interviewee’s final solution is to “give every 18 or older the right to vote.” Period. And the interviewer never tries to explore the concept further. So, you mean 19 yr olds in Russia, who’ve never stepped foot in the US can vote in a US mayoral race of a town of 2000 ppl...? Of course not. So there needs more context and that is where the nuance and difficulty is; which is never explored. The 3rd episode does a disservice to immigrants trying to achieve a better life in the US because it never even tries to interview someone from their home country who didn’t immigrant to see a comparison. It also minimizes the influence of a global pandemic like there isn’t a any sort of correlation. WNYC can do better.”

“Good podcast. Sweatpants may be an odd way to look at Self Government but you have to be open minded to truly be free.”

“Really interesting storytelling. I’d heard of this loophole before but not in any detail. I’m looking forward to new episodes!”

“I’ve been wondering about why we call the US an “experiment”. I asked journalists and friends, but didn’t get an answer. Then this came along. Now I get it. Thank you. Love the many angles, love it all.”
