“Marshall is one of the most effective podcast hosts. His ability to interview the world’s leading thinkers and draw from his own vast knowledge about foreign and domestic affairs makes this truly the bleeding edge of thought and discussion on these topics.
I find myself envying Marshall and...”Read full review »

“This is a pretty useful exploration of a historic political evolution that is happening in real time. Unrelated: I would suggest a drinking game. Every time Marshall starts a list by saying “one” or “A” and never comes back to finish the list with “two” or “B” - take a drink.”

“Marshall comes across as doing his best to be intellectually honest and maintains some humility when expressing his opinions, many of which I don’t even agree with. Saagar is the opposite and I find his delivery and lack of humility obnoxious. Fortunately he’s barely ever on anymore. I struggle...”Read full review »

“As much as i wanted to like this podcast, I’ve determined that the hosts are socialists committed to the elitist woke thinking that is leading this country into ruin. They seem to have no ability to think outside the 3x5 card of mainstream allowable opinion. Very disappointed.”

RE Fat Leonard the I agree that the lack of morals when our high ranking officials thought no one was looking is astounding, but it leads me to ask what this story says about our culture.
That the people who maintain our borders and infrastructure: from privates to admirals and...”Read full review »

“This is a podcast called “The Realignment” yet features conservatives plugging the same failed center right policies as they have for 40 years. Lots of talk of “changing the culture” since solving the problems discussed on this pod would mean addressing economic problems with a new ideology....”Read full review »

“First listen: Peter Turchin episode : show seems intellectually humble + honest. Interviewer asks question and then listens to answer without interruption. Whatever bias interviewer may have he does not let it take over. Guest shared a lot of information on his topic. Well done.”

These are clear views without...”Read full review »

“If you're looking for some hard-hitting, well-rounded political commentary, look elsewhere. This show is basically Fox News with a fancy coat of paint. In the land of biased media, this show is like the king of the castle. A master class in propaganda, presented with all the subtlety of a...”Read full review »

“Not a single mention of the only issue that matters - now, in 2024 and beyond - ABORTION. Why are Marshall, Sagar and Henry afraid to touch this issue? The GOP will get right with women’s rights or never hold meaningful political power again.”

“Listened to one episode, 315, and it was probably the most pessimistic and smug podcast episode I've ever listened to. Both host and guest. If you want to listen to doom and gloom then this is for you.
Update: Listened to another episode, 231, and this one was really good. A stark contrast...”Read full review »

“For a current events/politics podcast that is based on a jumbled “realignment” of politics, it has now devolved into bringing in smart high end guests with little to no push back on the guest’s intended narrative.
Noah Smith episode is a good example. The host let’s him go unchecked as he makes...”Read full review »

“Hi guys, love the show! My question is about voter suppression.
