Pod Save the World

Thank you for what you do. Listening to this pod I know I can trust what you guys say because you always give it to us straight and I appreciate that because it’s hard to find these days. I live in a place where people lack common sense and lack common decency when it comes to doing the right thing. Please don’t stop ever podcasting because I feel less alone when I listen to your pod and I can say these guys get it, how I get it. where nobody seems to see what’s happening in the world. Great show

While overall i like to maintain a neutral position on certain things regarding worldly affairs, i cant help but notice how Tommy’s language tends to be very one-sided regarding certain conflicts. I do appreciate Ben’s more centrist approach in addressing both of the human suffering sides of a conflict, but Tommy is always quick to use very demonizing language toward the Palestinian Resistance and to ignore the conditions of the Palestinian people altogether while throwing all his sympathetic language for the Israeli’s and it is a little upsetting to see such a stark bias. I would just ask for Tommy to look at what’s happening to the people suffering on both sides of the fence and not just demonize how Israeli “hostages” are treated and ignoring the monstrous treatment the Palestinian hostages are also going through and the conditions in which they are being returned. At least Hamas has decency to return them in coffins and not in blue zip-tied body bags as Isreal returns deceased Palestinian hostages? Who’s the real monster here?!

Largely aligned with my view on world affairs, more balanced and thoughtful insights for international listeners. Not a big fun of PSA btw.

I’m 63 and have followed you from the beginning. While what you report is heartbreaking, beyond frustrating and reason and now just terrifying, it’s so overwhelming. Your podcast puts it into context. Thanks
