Kim-L&P

Great podcast. I had a question about the most recent podcast debating impeachment. No one discussed if proceding forward with impeachment, despite the fact that it likely won't be successful due to the current Senate, might help Bill Weld in his bid against 45?

Leaning a little too left at times, but still terrific

I am a fan of Pod Save America who started listening to this podcast to make sure I got some bubble piercing sober / sane alternate perspectives from the right. I like new hosts Katie Barlow and Joe Lockhart even more than the original hosts, and it certainly has become more entertaining and lively. But it would be good if your guests could include more center or right leaning (yet still sane/principled) guests.

The Great Impeachment Debate

While I was intrigued by the topic and the points made by each side I found the off topic personal banter to be annoying and distracting. The counter points were repeatedly made with few new ideas interjected and Philliepe’s use of profanity was unprofessional.

Truly enjoyed other segments but not this one.
