  • Mondays w Bill

    I’m Bills age and SOMETIMES I am sensitive as a comrade when Tim highlights Bills age ex: Assuming Bill knew who the Bobbsey twins were. I do hear Tim’s respect so mostly I’m amused. Now that I’m 71 and no longer in disbelief that I’m in my 70’s I still find incredible people I can identify with and Bill is one of them. He’s soulful and smart and I look forward to Bulwark Mondays!

  • David French: Maybe the Tariffs Are the Problem

    Really enjoyed 586, but I gotta say the R.L. Burnside track was the absolute gem.

    Merci. From Canada for that.

  • One complaint

    I love Tim Miller and his show the Bulwark. I listen daily in Wisconsin. My only complaint is that there’s no reference or mention of the killer tracks so I can add them to my apple playlist. -Gen X always looking for a new groove and fighting the good fight.
