Shockingly boring and so, so stupid.
The “Is Really Down Episode’ was one of the most venomous spewing podcasts that I have heard. Very disappointing.
How can people who know so little manage to say so many words? I listen because I can’t believe that the latest episode could possibly be worse than the last. But I’m wrong every time. One day communications and journalism students will study this podcast as the worst of a bad genre. A historic achievement by the Washington Post.
Listened to couple episodes give it fair shake and is absolute trash, also call it why liberals suck, this podcast pretends republicans are in control of everything, everything sucks, but hey dsa exists
There are no normal people on this podcast. Very obnoxious to try and find any actual news here.

A weekday politics and current affairs program that combines on-the-record reporting, expert analysis, and dynamic interviews with journalists, policy analysts, and political commentators. Episodes span domestic policy, electoral strategy, free-speech and higher-ed debates, and international affairs, often pairing data-driven takes with historical context to illuminate complex issues. A notable strength is the willingness to host a broad spectrum of perspectives—from liberal to conservative—within a Washington Post–anchored framework, which can yield nuanced conversations for listeners evaluating policy and media narratives.
