- My favorite pod
Bari, there needs to be a section for book recommendations on The Free Press - So many books have been brought up in interviews that I always wish I could remember and go back to when I put something down!

I’ve followed your podcast for years. I appreciated your view points even if I didn’t agree. I belong to no political party. However, your silence on current national and international affairs is deafening. Your avoidance of criticizing this administration and human rights violations is cowardly. I wish you well, but I will no longer be supporting your platforms.

I love The Free Press—I started following them when they were just a newsletter called Common Sense, which is sorely lacking in our political discourse. I am so happy for the growing success of TFP and it gives me hope that the majority of Americans do indeed have common sense. I listen to this podcast for my news so I can get beyond the hype and listen to different views, after research and thinking has been done. Keep up the great work!

It’s not a philosophy as much as a grievance narrative and it creates a lot of bad allegiances, namely the frequent normalizing of Trumpism and MAGA
