This podcaster talks about issues the way 99% of us wish we could. Informed, intelligently, argued discourse. I don’t always agree but I end up informed and it’s from that position that good decisions are made.

Honest, non-partisan news commentary. You may think Dan is conservative, liberal, academic, plain spoken all depending on the issue, because each issue is different and needs a different approach. Dan is not afraid to cut right through the crap and bring up nuances that nobody else seems to have noticed. I love listening to Dan explain a situation in detail rather than in platitudes while all the while admitting that, “I may be wrong.” That’s refreshing. I’ve been listening for over 8 years.
