  • Right wing bias

    Don’t bother. I heard knee-jerk right-wing rhetoric, without serious analysis or solutions to real problems. Two stars for the little bit of information mixed in with the wingy buzzwords.

  • The Dominator :)

    I listen to Mr. Pino on The Editors podcast, and even though I suspect he’s one of the youngest contributors, he’s definitely the brightest and has the most convincing arguments. Probably because he comes to each episode he’s on with a ton of facts. (I think the young people say “receipts”).

    I wish I’d realized he had his own podcast earlier and hope he has them more often.
