There is so much hot air, nonsense, and spin in American news today. This podcast is so refreshing in that it discusses important topics without being preached to or being told how to interpret the topic. Well done!

It’s like listening to MSNBC drivel non-stop. I say that as a Democrat for over 50 years. The bias on this show is shocking even by today’s meager journalistic standards. The interviewer and interviewees are often idealistic, Pollyanna ignoramuses. Talks on the environment give little play to views other than those discussed on the show as fact. The anti-Israel bent is clear and disappointing. In one show about the Israel-Palestinian issue, the “journalist” makes dozens of unsubstantiated claims well beyond his experience and wisdom - “a negotiated peace is the only solution.” Really? Has that worked over the last 75 years? What is his support? In another show, the guest opines about legal issues without an understanding of our federalist system. The interviewer has no sense to ask more probing questions or to challenge the guests whom she treats with reverence, not skepticism. The show is a big zero which contributes to misinformation which, in turn, causes bad policy and loss of lives.
