“This show brings on various economists, journalists, scientists and other professionals. Regardless of the issue, this show sheds light on how rampant/unregulated neoliberal capitalism can be tied to many of the disparities experienced by anyone who isn’t benefiting from intergenerational wealth...”Read full review »

“Even the situations are sad and serious. I don’t know what it is, maybe his delivery, but Brian Mier the Brazilian reporter just cracks me up on the way he describes the President of Brazil.”

“The show brings on a wide variety of guests and Chuck is a great interviewer in that he doesn’t make it about himself at all. He lets his guests speak at length and actually responds to the direction the conversation is going rather than work off a script. Rare these days!”

“Chuck has been steadfast in humor, smarts and humanity since I started listening to the show (with a radio) in the 90s. Most things degrade over time, let's face it. Not this show. I'm not sure whether he's showing it-- since we all age-- but his presence on the show is timeless....”Read full review »

“Every episode is the same. They have someone on who has researched some social problem. Then the host asks: “so, could we say that this problem exists and/or is worse bc Capitalism?” The interviewee always answers: “Well, I wouldn’t want to generalize, but yes, you could say that.” Then the...”Read full review »

“Chuck is the best interviewer around, hands down. The only person I can think of who is on the same par is Michael Silverblatt, which says A LOT, especially since Michael is predominately talking about fiction. But they are similar in their intuitive interviewing styles, which I consider an art. ...”Read full review »
