Customer Reviews
Seamless transition from Charlie to Tim
The Bulwark remains, as always, sharp and informative. Tim has superbly picked up where Charlie left off. I do love the added soundtrack send off. Trip -Hopping with R.L Burnside made my morning.
Tim is a bad host.
I’m totally fed up with Tim being unable to adequately host. Stop interrupting your guests in the middle of a point to chip in some pointless aside in a vain attempt to be funny. Most of the time it just derails whatever they were saying and they never get back to the point they were making. If you can’t sit still and listen for like two minutes without interrupting your guests, then give up the hosting duties to someone who can actually be professional. I wanted to make this a one star review, but I’m giving Tim and extra star because at least he’s not JVL.
Not good
Tim! hectors any guest who has doubts about Biden, decries the ‘left’ ( those people who built a party on which Tim! has lately grasped onto), and conflates any doubts about Israel’s response in Gaza with alignment with Rashida Tlaib. Dishonest and unprofessional.
