The Rest Is Politics

Really love the show but shame on them for hiring Scaramucci, a moron blowhard who sought to be the mouthpiece for a demagog, then sees the light once he’s fired, who mansplains to the hapless Kay and condescends to the UK audience like he were a peace corps volunteer teaching Burundi bushmen the wonders of modern Tupperware. Shame.

If you want to hear preconceived conclusions that were malformed twenty years ago, this is your podcast. “We put in zero work and it shows.” Truly a zenith of cliched lazy boomer thinking.

I was happy to see you were streaming coverage of the U.S. election. Then I saw you actually hired Anthony Scaramucci as an analyst. Are you just making fun of Americans? Or did you somehow mistake “the Mooch” as a person worthy of respect? What an embarrassing blunder., and so easily avoidable.

The UK version? Amazing! Five stars. The hosts are fantastic and the show is both engaging and interesting to listen to. The US version? Let’s hire the lifelong financial guy who got into politics two minutes ago and got immediately fired. He’s not engaging or interesting to listen to. Great! And pair him with someone who is not from the US? What could go right? One star. Please god stop cluttering my feed by slipping them in and then please god just stop cluttering up the scene by just stopping that podcast or re-casting the hosts.
