Stereotypical Progressive Echo Chamber
I was hoping this would be platform to learn more about progressive policies, philosophies etc...
Unfortunately, it isn’t . The hosts / guests trip over themselves to agree with each other, they offer nothing substantive, no civil discourse, just the typical subterfuge, character assassination style tactics associated with the TDS left.
Muy mal

Superficial, uninformed, and generally partisan attack politics
I'm an independent who looks at individual issues.
From the name, I thought this podcast would be a good way to learn the progressive side of the issues.
It's not.
The cast sticks to the typical progressive talking points - gun control, minimum wage, wage and wealth inequality, gay marriage, et al.
Having known that these are the standard progressive issues, this is what I had expected to hear about.
Sadly, I had hoped for an honest discussion of the issues.
You don't get that here.
Most of the time is spent railing against the wealthy, the evil conservatives, the union busters, the evil koch brothers.
Milton Friedman even takes a beating; this was probably the most surprising attack, because if you know anything about him, you know that he proposed the negative income tax to help the impoverished - which is implemented as the earned income credit!!
Any time that isn't spent railing unceremoniously is spent generally misunderstanding the issues.
This podcast harms the progressive cause more than it helps it.
And you certainly won't learn anything new here.
STAY AWAY!
