- April 30th episode
Wow, this Baumgartner Rep just spews MAGA nonsense for nearly the entire interview. The host tries to redirect him but really should have been more confrontational, especially when he calls Seattle area voters and the Seattle mayor morons. He accuses anyone on the left of our national politics as acting out of “Trump derangement syndrome” yet he is the one who sounds as if he is deranged… “MAGA derangement syndrome” perhaps?

United States5 months ago - Truly Balanced
Libby has a respectful ear to her guests. I value her ability to listen and pose thoughtful questions that broaden my perspective and seam closer the divide. Her professional ability to articulate and gather ideas without offense should be methodically taught across NPR’s journalism.
I return to Sound Side for the balance.
Apple Podcasts5TheWatertreeUnited Statesa year ago - Brian Heywood is a bigot
Thanks for holding the facts up to him and questioning his underlying assumption that trans people are worse than cis people. He’s a grifter, a fear-monger, a liar, and a bigot.
Apple Podcasts5NoamMomskyUnited Statesa year ago - Unfortunate they are covering national stories and lack rigor
Do we really need kuow’s take on google’s ai synopsis in search results? Do we need them discussing palestine? Why retread ground the NYT and BBC cover with far more resources and access?
What we need is for kuow to cover solutions for our broken school system, solutions for bike and pedestrian mobility, solutions for the homeless crises, solutions for downtown office vacancies. Keep it local please!
Apple Podcasts3EfbrazilUnited States2 years ago wow. No problems with the interview but I wanted to look up the name of the guest in the book the guest had written and there seems to be no show notes at all. Not even the most basic information such as the name of the guest. Wow.
