  • Too much non-subject matter content

    Although I think I’ve always liked Anthony Weiner’s political impact in politics, in my opinion, his podcast could use some work (seriously).

    I’ve found that 10-20 minutes of his show usually consist of non-subject matter or non-political stuff (way too much for a one hour show). Appreciate the love of a parent for their children but don’t think most people tune in for a load of that kind of stuff. Especially if one considers that another big chunk of the show’s content consists of commercials... more

  • Well…

    I believe anyone should get a second (or in this case, third) chance. I tried listening to this show but Weiner just isn’t good at making political predictions or observations. I was listening to the episode where Weiner assured his listeners Biden would NOT drop out of the race… the same day Biden announced he was dropping out.

    Do we really need another show with a political figure making bad calls?

  • So partisan

    Don’t waste your time. You will learn nothing. If you are very liberal, you will agree with everything he says. If you have more centrist views it will be aggravating to listen to his lies. Perfect example, if you agree with cuts to spending extra $ for IRS expansion, then you must believe that the extra $ will go to benefit Jeff Bezos buying a new yacht. Ignorance abounds. Feel dumber for tuning in - turned it off halfway.

  • A truly knowledgeable speaker

    Incredibly knowledgeable and credible. Anthony comes across as an imperfect human that truly wants to make the world a better place
