Detailed, informative, and often persuasive analysis

This political podcast often examines the stories behind the headlines and explores some interpretations. The episodes detailing efforts to limit information, manipulate public opinion, and enforce conformity among political parties have been exceptional. The exposure of widespread social media censorship in the Twitter files demonstrates how far the Trump and Biden administrations have strayed from First Amendment principles and practices.

The last two episodes - detailed, informative, and persuasive- focus on efforts by DNC officials and operatives to limit ballot access for Ralph Nader, Jill Stein, Gary Johnson to RFKJr., Cornel West, and small parties (Libertarian, No Labels, Green.) This cynical approach has now extended to efforts to ban Trump too. These episodes document how many Democratic Party mega-donors and leading politicians no longer believe in democratic principles or practices. It’s a stunning, tragic tale.

Paid what

I just don’t know what all these content creators are thinking with the incessant pay walls. No one’s going to subscribe to like 25 podcasts at $7 to $10 a month each. Your content is not that great when there are others that don’t have a pay wall and provide similar quality. Similarly, your arguing that people should diversify their sources. How does that align with having a pay wall to access yours and others’ information?
