    Stopped listening at about the seven minute mark when Chris hedges stated that “nobody wanted Kamala Harris“. That just isn’t true. The only demographic of people who did not support Kamala Harris in the majority was white men and white women. So it’s not surprising that two white men and one white woman would boast about “nobody wanting Kamala Harris“ but just know that for the rest of America, that doesn’t view whiteness as centrality to America, we did want Kamala Harris.

  • A truly progressive and independent news podcast

    These two are absolutely fearless in their criticisms of our fascist right and flailing liberals with humor and a few bad words for extra flair. Plus they always have interesting progressives on their radar and do great interviews. I always know anyone they interview is worth checking out. Don’t ever stop doing what you all are doing!

  • Don’t always agree, but…

    I appreciated that Krystal gave Uygur a real debate. Too rare on shows these days. And I agree more with Cenk.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 260: Graham Platner
Q: Graham, when you were serving in the military, did you encounter anyone who had that mentality?
Yes, there are people drawn to violent professions due to deep-seated insecurities. They often lack the necessary structures to control such tendencies.
Episode 258: Ro Khanna
Q: What message would you have for the survivors that you fought for?
Thank you for your courage; you're winning, and we will continue to fight for justice.
Episode 258: Ro Khanna
Q: How did you and Thomas Massey come up with the strategy that worked to get the Epstein files released?
We decided to collaborate on a discharge petition to gain transparency about Epstein's case, leveraging bipartisan support.
Episode 256: Cameron Kasky
Q: Cam, I want you to talk to our audience for a little bit about, I'm not sure how many in our audience know your full backstory, but you referenced, you were there during the Parkland shooting, and you very quickly after that rose to national prominence because you and some of your friends were basically telling the country, like, are we going to do something about this or are we just going to have a school shooting every other week from now until the end of time?
Kasky describes his experiences during the Parkland shooting, the chaotic environment that ensued, and how it motivated him to advocate for stronger gun legislation and a national movement for change.
Episode 255: Aftyn Behn
Q: What one piece of advice would you give to a red state Democrat here?
Be unapologetically yourself; authenticity resonates with voters.
