  • Excellent data, but unsubstantiated opinions need to stop

    Just listened to episode on Women's History Month. When the hosts and the editor stated that female students face "so many obstacles" that impede women incollege from such things as going to law school, they forget to mention that more women now attend law school than men. In fact, more women graduate from college overall than men, and that gap is growing. This conflation with fact makes me wonder how reliable their podcast information is.

    I live and breathe by this podcast. It’s great. All the A+ pollsters like Marist called the race for Trump and so I got to be depressed much earlier than most. I keep listening because it helps me understand what people are thinking since they don’t make any sense to me on Facebook.

  • Not a time waster.

    Nice job of digging into polls, including those done by the producers, as well as those done by others. Nice to hear frank talk about polls and polling. Gets a little wonky at times but much better than just some surface gab about the numbers.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Future of Cancer
Q: Tell us about your podcast and who it's for.
The guest describes Medical Insights with Dr. Thomas Blom as a patient-centered show where physicians discuss questions patients have on visits, offering a behind-the-scenes look at how diagnoses and treatments are approached, aimed at helping patients understand their care.
The Future of Cancer
Q: Looking forward, what gives you the most optimism about the next five to ten years in oncology?
The biggest optimism comes from drug development and the explosion of genomic-driven therapies, including AI-assisted discovery, but there is also a need to address escalating costs as cancer becomes more like a chronic disease requiring ongoing treatment.
The Future of Cancer
Q: But is it good news for everybody?
Dr. Blom explains that while there are major advances in screening and treatments, financial toxicity and unequal access mean the benefits are not evenly distributed; better coverage and patient support are essential to ensure equity.
What's Next for Ukraine...and the Vatican?
Q: What do you think accounts for American Catholics' views of Pope Francis?
Public opinion is shaped by a mix of admiration for his environmental and social outreach and concerns from more conservative groups about governance, LGBTQ issues, and potential changes to church doctrine, leading to a nuanced, often favorable overall view with notable pockets of skepticism.
What's Next For fivethirtyeight's G. Elliott Morris
Q: What is your new venture and how will it sustain independent polling journalism?
Strength in Numbers will publish aggregated data, offer a monthly nonpartisan poll, and invite reader-suggested topics to ensure interactive engagement while maintaining editorial independence and transparency through data and code sharing.
