  • Mississippi Reading

    I sent my three children to a very pricey and well regarded private school. My daughter, in the second grade, was struggling in a big way with reading. The school was threatening to kick her out because she was so far behind in reading. Tutors weren’t helping.

  • Andrew, I can’t agree with you about Trump’s

    words of hate for his enemies while he stood in front of Erica Kirk. She had just delivered the most powerful message of forgiveness, then Trump trampled them with his words of hate. I don’t agree that Trump was just being funny, the memorial was no place for thoughtless jokes.

    Great Podcast. I’m a lifelong liberal but this is one of my favorite Podcasts. The team gives an intelligent, honest and supported take on whatever the hot topic might be. Maybe I’ll vote Republican one day.

  • A Breath of Fresh Air

    The Editors podcast is superb. The intelligence of the participants, the depth of their analysis and the articulation of their opinions are unsurpassed. In an age where most of the media are in the tank for one side or the other, this group comes at issues with true intellectual curiosity and honesty. It is one of the highlights of my week.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 815: Peace Prospects
Q: Are all politicians held to the same standard when it comes to legal consequences?
It's apparent that political motivations play a significant role in prosecutions, as different standards seem to apply depending on who is involved.
Episode 815: Peace Prospects
Q: What factors should we consider in the indictments against Trump?
They could be seen as retaliatory lawfare, targeting Trump as a political enemy, which complicates the legal landscape he is navigating.
Episode 815: Peace Prospects
Q: What do you think of the ceasefire? Is it sustainable?
While it feels different from previous ceasefires, the situation remains precarious, and we should be skeptical about the sincerity of the agreements made by Hamas.
Episode 813: A General Address
Q: Will we remember Pete Hegseth's speech this week as a historic inflection point in the course of the US military?
Only yes if we don't see major reversals in the next administration, where all of a sudden all the wokeness comes back, all of the standards start dropping.
Episode 811: Rerunning the Indictment Playbook
Q: Do you think the rising political violence can be addressed?
The rising political violence appears to be a symptom of deeply rooted political animosity, with no clear solution in sight from current leaders.
