    I’m a recently converted subscriber. I really like the experts they bring on particularly the military generals, for their honest opinions.

    There’s a casualness and honesty that I really appreciate in their shows.

    I don’t always listen to their episodes about headlines, because if you regularly read the news, you would know most of these stories. I prefer the deep dives.

The Daily Blast: Trump Explodes at Media over Tariff Fiasco as Poll Delivers Harsh News
Q: How seriously do you take the actual threat of Trump's statements about Greenland?

The Daily Blast: Trump Explodes at Media over Tariff Fiasco as Poll Delivers Harsh News
Q: What do you think about Trump's framing of strength versus weakness regarding tariffs?
The tariffs in particular are weakening the country because while maybe this is making him stronger personally vis-a-vis the US Democratic system, it's making the United States weaker compared to other countries in the world.
