Customer Reviews
Last one standing
I miss the hand-off with Rachel, and the 11th Hour with Brian Williams. Lawrence is the only host I feel comfortable with now. I wish someone would realize how badly subtitles from non-English speakers translate to podcast.
Well thought off commentary
The May 9th episode alone deserves a platinum award!
Alex Wagner
I never thought that anyone could replace Rachel Maddow. What a delight to have Alex Wagner. Her introductions to Lawrence O’Donnell make that transition so pleasant & insightful. She is smart, funny and quick in her repartee. She is definitely a keeper.
