I made a quite mild comment about a post he made on X. It was a comment about making Washington DC a state. I said that no way we will go for that. Democrats just want to stack the deck. Then he BLOCKED me. Come on, what is wrong with that comment? He tries not to take sides (normally). But when he does, it leans towards democrats. Anyways, I generally enjoy his podcast, so I won’t take it personally. I been listening to his podcasts for years. Maybe he was having a bad day.
I like the voices he does, I like how I never know what he’s going to focus on next, and I like how balanced he tends to be on more modern politics. Also, I LOVE reading the comments for this podcast! Some pretty funny stuff here.
Can you please do a Carter in 1978 episode? Unexplained jump in two days from 77 to 79. On Bruce’s style: some strange unsettling pauses, please reduce. Also sometimes bad voice imitations - reduce theatricality when you cannot do it. But has a great way of building suspense into forgotten events and have us relive the surprise of things that seem banal today, and help us question unquestioned wisdom of today. Greatly researched. Some topics could have received more or less attention on Re... more
I like the premise of this podcast — that we can see the events in today’s political events mirroring events that happened in the past. And that most people have the historical memory of a goldfish.
But a warning: this is a podcast by, for, and about Americans. Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be any desire to treat events beyond the US borders to the same analysis.
Your 14 points about the Biden election are why I listen to and trust this podcast. I don’t agree with your politics, but your ability to notice and admit to challenges or concerns on your own side gives you integrity. Left or right, that is rare in political discourse.
That is why I don’t listen to some of guests any more; once the individuals involved keeping things balanced left, the shows turned into an apology for the left and are away at their credibility.
