Only wish it was weekly! I look forward to every episode. Thank you for this wonderful public service.
Great information from the people making political news in SC, presented by two veterans of the South Carolina Statehouse. Vincent and Joel share political news in a very entertaining way.
I’m pretty conservative so I was skeptical at first about a political commentary show hosted by two Democracts. I’m glad I gave them a chance. I actually prefer the episodes with a Democrat guest bc it challenges my priors and helps me understand how the other side thinks, even if I disagree. As our population continues to self-sort, it’s important to have a platform for civil and respectful debate. Thank you to Senators Sheheen and Lourie for facilitating it.

No more Gatekeeping: I immediately skip over other shows on my podcast list when a new episode of BITBR comes out. Vincent and Joel do an outstanding job of keeping SC citizens up to date in government and provide amazing insight from their vast wealth of knowledge and expertise. Through their experience and connections they bring a wide array of guests that always keeps the show interesting and informative. Cheers!
