  • Listener ? Braude should be the first to go. Interesting him to see him trying to bully his boss.

    How pathetic is Marjorie!!!! She couldn’t handle a debate with a caller and big Braude had to interrupt and save her by attacking the caller.

    It’s shows like this that lead to Trump’s shooting. Time to put these foolish octogenarians out to pasture. The way the two of these bullies attacked the caller was out of line!

  • What a Pair

    Not since Scott Galloway and Kara Swisher has a pair of people complemented each other’s strong points and minimized each other’s weak points more perfectly than here. Topics and guests are invariably interesting. You might hear a judge, a naturalist and an economics professor in one show. There may be a Boston slant, but rarely for the whole show. Besides, what’s better than Boston?
