National ReviewA show about the perilous state of the Golden State—and what that means for you, wherever you live.

- Self discipline
Please practice some self correction when discussing K-12 education. Both of you consistently and falsely accuse our teachers of pushing children to question their gender identity.
This is a right wing political agenda which is not supported by any evidence or statistics. I enjoy the show and a fresh perspective on my home state. And I will continue listening. Thank you

Will and David consistently serve up a sumptuous feast of Golden State absurdity. They shed light on the ongoing disaster of one-party government. How much ruin is there in a state? CA is so blessed with resources we may never find out, but at least these guys will keep us informed and entertained till the end.

This guy is so arrogant. Something something rich man needle camel eye heaven. It must be nice to put yourself above other conservatives when your vote and dollars don’t make a lick of difference.
