Hosts & Guests
Get Gary Stevenson
Mar 10
Get Gary Stevenson! Either as an individual guest or to debate Jason Furman (from the Sept 19, 2024 episode) regarding Economics. He’s out there discussing inequality, an element of the economy that is not even included in the modeling and math taught in Economics studies. He’s made millions linking that missing element to his predictions in the market.
Bandaids

Listening to democrats’ process for bringing a well intentioned plan for broadband to life reminds me of every single non-profit grant making process I’ve ever been a part of. Thanks for this interesting perspective. Liberals. We’re not quite nailing it. Yet.
Limited Guests

Try to get anyone from the administration or people like Andresson. I want to see the “small” tech big tech guys interviewed or this is all the same song and dance from the last 12 years. New blood, challenging guests.
JOMO

I’m with you, Jon: just love being home. I’m an introvert living in an extrovert world (Great interviews on this podcast & ❤️seeing you on Monday nights)
Don’t trust the guests
Mar 20
It’s good, but just be aware he can sane-wash some real nightmare ideologues.
Maria Ressa is a treasure
Mar 18
What a brilliant, wise, courageous, and joyful warrior. I, too, was encouraged and uplifted after your discussion with her even though you were talking about some pretty heavy stuff. Her energy and enthusiasm is infectious.

Deep, broad, rich interviews of incredible guests who are helping make sense (yes sense) of today's Bizarro world
Clearing the Fog
Mar 16
I am so grateful to Jon and his staff for bringing clarity in this time of heavy fog in our country where it is hard to see the truth or sanity! I feel drawn to hearing Jon and his guests! Thank you!
Informative and thought-provoking
Mar 11
I really appreciate the different perspectives Jon brings on the show and the depth of the interviews, as well as welcome critiques of the Democratic Party. I consider myself educated but not super informed about world history or politics, and the episode with Maria Ressa was fantastic. One note - can you please define more uncommon terms that you use on the show? The word “illiberal” was said maybe 30 times on the last episode without explanation. Similar to the “analog democracy in a digital world” phrase, I think Jon sometimes has a tendency to make characterizations without explaining them, and I’m not sure if the average American gets what he’s saying? Or maybe I’m just not an astute listener
Great episode with Maria R.

Love this podcast! Maria Ressa’s episode was great. Hearing her perspective made me feel like we can survive the next 4 yrs.
