  • Great and informative podcast

    The folks accusing this podcast of having a liberal slant really need to get a grip. Anyone with a shred of media literacy can tell that this podcast’s intent is to accurately inform, not push a political agenda. All that said, this podcast is one of my favorites. It’s something to look forward to every morning. Keep up the great work!

  • The liberal bias is frustrating

    I have long listened to this podcast and found it informative and entertaining. However, the political left bias has become so prominent that it makes the show intolerable.
