  • Fan for years

    Have listened since before the current format. Love listening to Chuck’s take. I think a really long podcast once a week would be fine but the content is too long and I have trouble getting to it all. I don’t care about college football much and would be happy to skip it. I love the interviews and monologues and want the content to just be a little tighter.

  • This is who we are

    Chuck, this is who we are for god’s sake we voted for him twice.

    Trump is the most consequential POTUS since Lincoln and it’s all bad.

    I laugh at the fools that soothe themselves by saying we been through worse, maybe, but the POTUS wasn’t central cause of the problem those other times

    Trump is stage 4 cancer and we are in hospice.

    The call is coming from inside the house

  • In general

    Love the pod. Always great insights and info. Small criticism is length of episodes.No need to over-labor the points. Keep it punchy.

    Love it nonetheless.

  • Awkward Chuck

    Same old chuck todd. Mansplaining, interrupting guests, self indulgent talker. Also bad at interviewing women—seems like he’s on a blind date half the time. Not sure he’ll ever fix the interruptions issue. He’s aware of these problems, but won’t change.
