  • Good content but interruptive host

    Damian has knowledgeable guests on, but frankly - he interrupts his own guests so much it’s hard to listen to. Let the guest share at least their entire thought before adding in commentary, please.

  • Their political bias damages their effectiveness

    The most recent episode was a disaster. They had an opportunity to educate someone like myself but they destroyed their credibility with right-wing political dog whistles.
