Yes! Keep ‘em coming.

[updated 012316] I loved this podcast! Please bring it back!

I’m a long-time Political Gabfest fan, so naturally I wondered why Slate/Panoply needed something so seemingly duplicative. Well, I’m hooked. These three are pedigreed political scribes and, frankly, a lot funnier than the Gabfest team (who I do love, but Emily who I truly have a crush on is just painfully unfunny). This podcast really is bringing something fresh to the forum—it’s not a replacement for the Gabfest, it’s complementary—and it’s got a bit more of an edge too. Keep it going guys, keep it loose and freewheeling as you have. And Mark, give us a bit more of the salacious tidbits that you know you love.
