Very left-leaning AND DISSAPOINTING
UPDATE: I just listened to “Don’t ask RFK Jr about being a spoiler” and it made me lose so much more respect for the host, Astead Herndon. The whole episode was Astead attacking RFK Jr and trying to find a “gotcha moment”. You can almost feel the anger coming off of him. I don’t know how this is journalism. It is more of an opinion show and it made me agree with what RFK Jr said, that Astead Herndon, and his show, is only there to promote and further the Democratic Party. I don’t mind a little bias in a show like this, everyone has their views and it’s very hard to keep unbiased when doing anything, but this show is EXTREMELY left-wing. Annoyingly left-wing. I consider myself a democrat, would describe myself as “a little left of center”, so I don’t write this as an angry Trumper who doesn’t like truth being spoken about my supreme leader. I write this as a normal (somewhat normal…) American who is sick of extremes on both ends. This is supposed to be “journalism” but, like a lot of other shows, starts taking a left turn that doesn’t end. It would be nice to hear some reporting where the author/creator isn’t trying to shove their views down my throat while masquerading as neutral reporting of facts. This could’ve been a good and very interesting show, but it’s not.

The first episode was a huge disappointment. The first 5 minutes were great - intelligent discussion of the race. The next 25 minutes was dedicated to an interview with Newt Gingrich and his completely insane view of the political climate in this country and his delusional fantasyland concept...Read full review »

I really enjoy this show and their perspective. Intelligent political discourse that rises above cable news headlines and infotainment. Excellent Podcast.
