  • Hunter > Bongino

    Skip the grifter and listen to this guy, (he has his own podcast too, which covers similar material, but with the much needed addition of cussing on the regular lately).

    Derek brings a no nonsense show, with more humility than Levin or Hannity. No, he’s not Rush, but he’s a darn sight better than all the millionaires out there tossing out “facts” then backpedaling… Good info, good guests, and entertaining to boot!
