  • Mute/Buzzer Button Needed!

    I truly enjoy you and your show, and I appreciate the clarity and insight you bring to every discussion.

Guests such as Joe Borelli — and especially Ben Ferguson — are frequent offenders. Even though Scott Jennings can be frustrating in his unwavering defense of the current president, he does not interrupt you and other guest the way those two do.
