Sorry for no punctuation my phone is broken lol
Had really high hopes for this as I’ve read some of Jessas writing and thought this would be a stimulating political podcast with a leftist tilt
nothing is said that is actually thought provoking in a meaningful way you have to already have a lot of leftist assumptions to go in and there’s so much circular thought it actually drove me and my partner w bit crazy trying to dissect some of the things said
Weird things don’t get challenged like on... more
Her opinions and insights are fascinating even if I don’t always agree.
Jessa is the bomb!!!! Love this show.
Brilliant podcast. Apparently it’s the only one on here I’ve listened to EVERY episode of so that’s gotta mean something (at least to meeeeeee).
What an obnoxious podcast. If you’re seeking a center left forum where self-appointed ‘intellectuals’ blather on about how the world doesn’t quite appreciate just how clever and relevant they are, this blather fest is for you. Personally, I felt like jumping out the window after one episode. Enjoy.
