Good Information

Keep informing I Love the way you and your guests presented the issue of emigration. American-born people do not know the difficulty is to leave their family, community, and roots, and starting a new life. The way a caller to talk about immigrants was hurtful, hard. He probably think he is a Christian If he is talking about immigrants that way, he doesn't know anything and probably he is been awful to them. PLEASE keep informing

The UVALDE episode is so HARD to listen
When things are going to chance
The government in TEXAS is so WRONG and have NO MORAL and HEART

I’m Hooked!

David Martin Davies (DMD) is one of the most insightful and curious interviewer. He is extremely well prepared and informed on his subject. He’s no slacker. He displays his emotional intelligence deftly and is an actively engaged listener. He’s not ready to read the next question directly from the 5x8 cards. He follows up with the obvious question or to a statement that begs the question. He’s fair and balanced as he tackles one issue a day. I appreciate his exceptional work.
