Reviews

4.6 out of 5 stars from 3.9k ratings
  • 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.
