  • AIPAC shills

    I’ve wondered if Netanyahu pays these guys. Sure seems like it. And Ravi acts like he’s smarter than everyone when in reality he’s accomplished nothing of note

  • I’m done

    The grievance about other podcasters isn’t worth my time to listen to. And the un relatable lifestyle isn’t for me as a Midwestern nurse. My favorite was hearing the criticism of others as grifters and then having a comercial voiced by Ravi for snake oil.

    I maybe would give Jason a listen again but if this is who he relates to - no way!

  • Finally Someone Calls Our Piker

    Too many left-leaning podcasters are cozying up to such a horrible person. I am glad you all had the courage to show him for what he is

  • Used to be Good

    Used to really enjoy the show. Now it’s a 50min criticism of other popcasts and podcasters from Ravi with a dose of Ravi telling you how right he is about democratic politics.
