Absolute best show for leftists who appreciate more signal and less noise

Doug is one of the very few people on the left we have who is serious and professional. Hard to believe you could ever listen to a single episode and not have gained some important insight from diverse, studious leftists' perspectives on our world.
Henwood's show is a must

I'm unsubscribing, because the episode description provides no clue as to topics covered. I wish I had the time to download and listen to every episode, but I don't. I think I'm probably not alone. Bad practice of KPFA generally.
