Listen to this just for Jim

I’m a conservative and I listen to this because I like Carville’s take on liberals. I despise Trump and left the party because of him, but the woke culture in the Democratic Party is just as repulsive to me. Hope people like Carville can talk some sense into Biden and others and walk them back the woke ledge they are on.

Episode 76 rant

Really love this pod and the recent interview with Seidule and Landrieu was incredible to me - It was an enormous history lesson for me, but all the more impressive coming from a high ranking military officer and former mayor - so grateful that Al and James know brilliant and dedicated people like this. And have to add that at the end of episode 76 James went on quite a rant that was long enough for him to apologize but I think it was meant for me because all week I had been a little upset by the Catholic Church’s rather extreme and ill-advised statement about the J and J vaccine and stem cells - which also was counter to what the Pope said - and it so happened I had just watched Spotlight the movie on Netflix so the recent news about filing claims of abuse against the church was on my mind - so I might be the one listener who really needed to hear James rant and could have listened even longer if he had more to say. Great episodes and wonderful guests - thanks so much for your dedication.
