Galaxy Watcher ,

Fantastic! You need this Podcast!

I love watching PBS news and especially Shields and Brooks. I Love their thoughts and analysis of American politics. I'm often left with something to ponder in my mind...I like my ideas to be challenged by different points of view...this is the only way to wisdom!

Great podcast

Recommended! Consistently high quality commentary which I look forward to every week. Pity more Conservatives are not as articulate and reasonable as David Brooks.

Brooks!

Mark sheilds babbles too much but David brooks is a sensible articulate conservative. Newshour is the worlds greatest news program.
