Customer Reviews
Huge fan!
When I listen to Glenn and John or guests, I feel like I’m eavesdropping on highly intellectual people just chatting amongst themselves, not like they cater to an audience. I always feel like I learned something. I also appreciate the gracious ways they discuss without talking over one another.
Wow
Glenn - got introduced to you via Rubin podcast. I listened to several of your podcast and I’m a fan.
I love your methodical and very logical arguments to huge issues we face today.
We immigrated to US in 1970 and have been an ardent believer of an American dream. This is a first time in my life I’m very nervous about the country that I love.
Glenn - please keep going!!!
