The Professional Left Podcast with Driftglass and Blue Gal

Awesome, autistic left wing ranting extremism. Really angry and fun to listen to.

Drift glass says everything I grumble about inside my head, so I’m a fan. Living for the weekly David Brooks bashing, but need more Ross Douthat dragging... These guys go to church. They’re normal mainstream American Protestants, Fred Rogers style. Not the strange cult. I’m a religious skeptic, but it’s great to hear from normal people! Recommend this pod.

For several weeks, I cannot play an episode of The Professional Left, either here or on Tune In. Are you having technical difficulties?

Propublica just broke this story of their investigation: Trump is using his media company to allow rich donors to buy a piece of Trump and reap the benefits in the form of government contracts and tax breaks if he gets elected again. The investigative reporting connects the new “Trump TV” to a streaming technology company in Melania’s home country (Slovenia) and to a rich Republican donor who had made millions off his relationship with Trump already.
