  • good length, knowledgeable guests, make Canada kook-free!

    I don’t want to sound like a kook (politically earnest but hand-wavy w/ the evidence) when talking to others about political topics. And I don’t enjoy talking to kooks. This show has an excellent selection of guests and is a manageable length. Perfect!
