Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 4.4k ratings
  • I love John, moved to TDR when I just couldn't take the main show anymore, but lately I keep getting a blackout every 30 seconds, presumably because that's where they wanted to insert ads but didn't. When ads work, way way too many. My only gripe with John himself, please stop saying "AI Slop" and jumping on the all AI is bad bandwagon. It's like Cenk and Ana with military pay and inner workings... you're ignorant on the subject. Please inform yourself or just stay out of it!

  • Iadarola is the 🐐

    This is the only TYT podcast I still listen to. John Iadarola is a delight. His humor makes the heavy news cycles feel less hopeless while his insights are pretty much spot on.

  • The only tyt Pod left to listen to!

    So at one time they ran ice ads. Now I’m hearing Fox News ads. It’s sad how much tyt has fallen! John is the only one left that seems to still be on the left! Only John’s show deserves 5 stars.
