  • Leftist, progressive slant.

    I love Brasil and the people and culture. I listen to various podcasts about Brasil weekly. However the commentators speaking about the USA election are clearly Biden and now Harris supporters. You’d think the foolish commentator’s would see how well socialism has failed. Yet they push the progressive agenda and pretty much slam Trump. I can’t stand Trump but he was a friend to Brasil and it’s people. Don’t be foolish and think only a few people in the USA are Trump voters and supporters. ... more

  • Great podcast on contemporary Brazilian politics

    As an American recently hired by a Brazilian company, I'm trying to learn about Brazil, but high quality information in English is pretty scarce. I've listened to a few episodes of Brazil Unfiltered and I'm learning a lot. I'm so thankful this exists! Keep it up, James N. Green! Obrigada!

  • Informative but biased

    I enjoyed listening and will listen again but “unfiltered” is not a good title. It’s highly biased to the left and while informative, it’s not intellectually honest. The guests are all elitist who have agendas. I said I enjoyed because I could filter out the bias etc and still learn something about Brazilian politics.

Q: What do you think could be the long-term impact of that, you think, on Brazilian society?
The right is going to suffer a fracture because it has to accommodate conflicting interests, and it will have to decide on a new direction.
The implications of Bolsonaro's trial with Rubens Glezer

Everything points toward him being found guilty, as there is a lot of proof against him.

He could direct and coordinate the coup with his agents from abroad, through internet and cell phones.
The implications of Bolsonaro's trial with Rubens Glezer
Q: So these actions included discussing an executive order to concentrate executive powers and restrain liberties so he could be in office for an indeterminate period of time.
