  • Regrettably Listened to Episode

    I was looking for a podcast talking about the executive order against homeless people and stumbled across this one. Unfortunately, this show is just not very good. I was not expecting a disgusting amount of hateful language and misinformation. I was really looking for something unbiased, and that fully explains the executive order, but this show does not do that. If you’re looking for shows well research and have read the actual thing they’re talking about, this is not it. If you’re looking for ... more

  • Best in LA

    This show is better than ever for local Southern CA issues. The media is broken in LA, the Los Angeles Times is a leftist propaganda/advocacy outlet, no one holds the DSA politicians that have infiltrated the city accountable. John Kobylt is the only one that does and for that reason alone it’s an excellent listen.

  • Why in reverse order??

    I really enjoy listening to John Kobylt. He offers common sense & entertaining commentary and has excellent guests. Debra Mark is excellent in reporting the news. I love the banter between John & Debra.

    The only complaint is why do they upload the podcast in reverse order? It would be much easier if they were uploaded in order - hours 1,2 3.
