I personally despise Fox News, and this has similar vibes that there’s one opinion, and that is the only opinion.

I’ve been listening for years and I notice a change in the narrative. Lately, this podcast has become too liberal. It’s very bias and only states information from the left point of view.
I’m not happy that it’s pro-BLM even though the BLM “nonprofit” has proven to be a scam.
