  • Straw Man City, Sadly

    I have to say, I was hoping for some credible and actually objective commentary on conservative and libertarian viewpoints, but unfortunately these folks are expert primarily at creating strawmen which they then use to attack “liberals” or “progressives.” more

  • Smart and funny

    The hosts are always worth hearing, even if they are chatting about their vacations or such things between topics. The guests are invariably impressive and I always learn something. At the end of an episode, I feel more optimistic about our country.
