  • Hypocritical and surface level

    These fellas are quite the hypocrites and only offer a surface level opinion based retelling of what's happening. There are better, more entertaining, and more illuminating political podcasts out there. This is not one of them. FDT.

  • I’m in!

    I have tickets to the upcoming show in Portland OR and I am super duper looking forward to it! I listen to A LOT of podcasts, and I must say this is one of my top five favorites with regard to insight and quick wit. It’s a must listen!

  • Passfully peaced away

    I listen on my long commute and look forward to crashing out every week. I love when Phil accidentally crashes out. Alex stumbled when talking about diying saying “passfully peacing out” and I giggled for much longer than necessary. Great show.

  • Worth listening to twice!

    Sometimes I listen to an episode twice just so I can hear rational people speaking passionately about the things that also bother me for an even longer amount of time. Please consider like, doubling the length of these episodes! If you triple the length of the episodes (indefinitely) I’ll subscribe to the Pearlmania Patreon 🙃 anyway, great work, great podcast, thanks for crashing out in such a cathartic manner!

Hegseth’s War Crimes & Ms. Rachel Wins Antisemite Award
Q: Should I leave the United States because of the path it's on, or is that a doomsday prepper level of worry?
If you can and it makes you feel better, then give it a try. But travel to the place you're going to move to first. Make sure it's cool. The grass isn't always greener everywhere else.
