Customer Reviews
Highly recommended
Just started listening to The Muckrake and thoroughly enjoying during these trying times! Impossible to turn away from American politics during the Trump era and these two guys provide an intellectual perspective. Much needed!!
By the way
Decent discussions. Strong political philosophy with foundation. BUT say “by the way” 1000 time per episode. I am being petty, but it’s grating.
Brilliant podcast !
This is truly a fantastic podcast that explains extremely well what is happening in the news cycle and in American politics and how it effects the everyday person . This has become my favorite podcast and I look forward each week to it dropping into my episodes. You won’t regret it , these guys have easy to listen to accents and they don’t speak too quickly.
Thanks again for an amazing podcast
