- Bully’s ONLY stop when you stand up to them!!
Nations have to finally stand up against USA. USA should be suspended from NATO, suspended from UN. All nato countries should send a military detachment to Greenland immediately until USA stops to threaten nato countries like Greenland and Canada. Europe should unite together against USA even if tariffs are threatened by USA for protecting Greenland or Canada. Russia and China should pause ALL trade with USA until USA becomes a trustworthy stable business partner again. Any other country that is... more

Apple Podcasts5@seanalfredCanada2 months ago - Jamie too dogmatic, inflexible & overbearing
I can see why the marriage ended! I was enjoying this show but since the Mamdani episode Jamie has reverted to type - talking over Christine, overbearing, dogmatic, defensive, arrogant, disrespectful.
I can't listen any more - get a new co-host, Christine - someone who respects you and can engage intelligently without shouting you down - you deserve better!

Australia3 months ago - Awkward listening sometimes
I quite enjoy this podcast but listening to ex’s talk over each other and sound like they are almost on the edge of a more personal argument is like sitting in a bar with a couple who are having an argument, leaving the rest of the group looking awkwardly around. It’s clear that if this was how they communicated with each other, then the marriage was doomed. Stick to the point and stop scoring points over each other about who is/was the better connected.
