  • Replace Robbie with a central figure

    Sometimes the ability for people to watch rhetoric and situations fly straight over their head is remarkable… imagine thinking that the political landscape in terms of basic manners has not changed drastically with trump. Sounds like Ben Shapiro, same whine and inability to perceive more than half a perspective. Your show suffers because of this.

  • Robbie is Temu Tucker Carlson

    Half the brain, twice the smugness, none of the relevancy, and that’s pretty tough to say because I don’t particularly like Tucker Carlson.

  • Robbie is an fanboy

    Try listening again because I like the potential of the show, but what has become obvious is that Robbie is a Trump fanboy masquerading as a libertarian to appear intellectually curious. I’m no fan of the liberal voices on the show either, but at least they are who they say they are. Robbie is a model prototype of a certain type of younger male generated by the Trump movement. 1 star. I will check back in again later, I want this show to be good

  • Love it!

    Robbie is great and balanced, I legit look forward to his takes. Niall is the better foil to him, the latest lady doesn’t listen, interrupts too much and makes nonsense arguments.

    Make it Robbie and Niall.

  • BS and Conspiracies

    Sanders is full of it! As for the other one, more conspiracy thinking. Want to change things? Put on your big boy pants and work with honesty and fairness like a proper adult. Unfortunately that leaves out 80% of the population.
