Kasich & Klepper

Paul and Stephen provide one of the most highly entertaining podcasts I’ve ever heard. The guests are smart and somewhat whacky so it all adds up to one of the funniest podcasts that I’ve listened to. I listen to Chinwag when I work out and laughing out loud has prompted a number of people to ask me what I’m listening to so hopefully that generates more listeners.

I learned about this podcast when I Listened to an interview on The Gist. I’m really glad that I checked it out. The interview with Kal Penn was interesting & funny. This podcast is a keeper! Too bad it appears that the podcast has run its course as there hasn’t been a new episode in months.

Kasich ruins it for me because he falls for all the talking points from the right. He doesn’t use facts— the police haven’t been defunded— the funds may be used for other things like social workers who pair up with cops on calls and the funds may not be for buying military style equipment (tanks for example). Also, don’t know where he heard liberals think the world ends tomorrow— we’re talking about taking some measures to make the earth more livable but in the words of the late great George Carlin— the earth isn’t going anywhere— we are if we keep screwing our selves with selfishness and being childish!

Klepper is a fantastic interviewer and has sharpened and proven his skills by boldly walking into the lion’s den to expose the insane Trump cult like nobody else in the media has been able to. Kasich. Oh, if only… I loved Kasich during the Republican primaries in 2016. Such a qualified and principled man to hold the highest office. Unfortunately, in the current political climate, a little makeover on Queer Eye might have been necessary and could have done wonders for his campaign. No offense intended, to the esteemed and perfectly charming and handsome Governor. Apparently, the presidency is now a television show; Qualifications and Character are so 20th century. Love this podcast. Fantastic interviews.
