DO get into the weeds!
The Weeds is a podcast I discovered via Fresh Air, and an interview with Sarah Kliff about health care insurance. This intrepid trio are so well-read, and so curious about the ways and means of economics and governance, that I often have to pause and rewind, so that I can grok the conversation. They have no interest in making what they're talking about entertaining. They're 3 folks talking about their subject, and they chime in with their areas of expertise, and often agree to disagree. I highly recommend this podcast for those who want to get smarter about politics, government, and the economy. Update: loving the new hosts, with the same acumen and curiosity. If only more Americans were willing to wade in to experience dispassionate discussions of policy, we might not have such a dysfunctional national or regional system of politics and governance 👏🏼👏🏼♥️Read full review »

This podcast really does get nerdy. It is refreshing to hear journalists talking about research stout wanting it.

Seems to be pursuing free flowing, conversational format that is not afraid to take time to flesh out the details. I’m very happy that they are not afraid to exceed an hour with their length or go into great detail. This is exactly the kind of podcast I’ve been looking for

Excellent pod, love the analysis about gun control and single payer as well as the white paper. I really enjoyed the attempt to give balanced, data driven arguments and an attempt to discuss both sides of the issues.
