Good podcast

medium cool

I don’t agree with most of Al and James’ views, but I still hear them out. I think James Carville is Mario Andretti stuck driving a ‘60s VW bus full of idiots.
Fun after election

Love hearing James’ takes but please guys, hire a professional audio engineer to set you both up with quality mics and to get your levels balanced. I often can’t make it through the show because Al is so loud and James is barely audible. Otherwise great show.
Not surprising

wow_disappointing

Two very butthurt old men complaining about the people who have been selected to help protect our country. As if Biden didn’t hire weird men dressed in skirts? Let’s not talk about how the one dude got caught stealing suitcases and then wear the dresses he stole in public. James, yes, straighten your attitude. Better yet, retire, you are both out of touch.
