Hacks On Tap

I have listened every week for years and love the show, until now. I stopped listening to a couple recent episodes because John H. interrupts constantly and takes wayyyy too long making a point or asking a question. I stopped listening to his own podcast for those same reasons. I find his information and questions interesting but the delivery has become unbearable. I live in Kenosha, WI and drove over the border to vote a few extra times in Cook County but it wasn’t enough -sorry.

The smugness the hosts show towards Trump, and by extension his supporters, is amazing but not surprising. Good news for Republicans if these guys are a reflection of Dem strategists moving forward

This is a wonderful podcast. But: John H, who is a journalist and not a political professional, talks way too much. It’s sort of cringey. If they need a third, I think they should find a hack, an insider. There’s plenty of political podcasts. The reason for Hacks is the insider pov presented in a collegial tone. We can get strident talking points and insult comedy from other outlets. Maybe the show should go back to just Murphy and Axelrod?

Hacks is one of my favorite podcasts. Lately I have found myself yelling at my phone because everyone is talking over each other. Just getting louder to get their points in. Let each other finish. Thank you!
