Customer Reviews
I will not listen to Anthony Scaramucci
He is a Republican hack. If he's pretending to see the light about his former czar, just wait until he gets a better opportunity.
Where’s the journalism part?
There’s no agreeing disagreeable with these 2 on the American side as there’s nothing fair and balanced in the reporting. I thought KK was a journalist. Where’s the digging into the outrageous conduct of da and . judge? It’s more than about Trump. How come nothing was mentioned about Biden’s conduct? Sorry I didn’t appreciate how good A&R are until I listened to these partisans.
Stop it with Katty and Mooch
This was a five-star podcast until you added this duo. I’m a regular listener from the U.S. and too familiar with both Katty K and Mooch to listen to them, but made the mistake of listening to the episode on Trump’s conviction. Katty K. does nothing but parrot the DC Beltway savvy consensus that too often borders on nihilism. Mooch is a joke, a second-rate New York money man who aspired to be a Trump and decided to change his tune to be acceptable to mainstream Manhattanites. People who listen to your politics are tired of the nihilism and the flash. Bring on Americans of substance.
