  • Hot garbage

    The show does not seek to inform listeners at all. The host is determined to spread a certain viewpoint and to do so by the use of ‘gotchas’ they don’t actually care what anyone has to say. They just want to spread propaganda and brainwash anyone who’s listening.

    Dude you got a chance to interview Vivek Ramaswamy and all you did was try and pick him apart on specific words and sentences he’s used over the past two years. Pathetic. You could’ve discussed with him areas where you defer on policy ... more

  • Clay Travis? 🤮🤮🤮

    Absolutely right to free speech.

    And this scary person wants to vote for Trump ten times over after everything we know now? After Jan 6th? Uh…this man is extremely frightening like the candidates he lives so much.

    Dems would have rioted if Biden didn’t win? The man is quite full of himself.

    Get him away from vulnerable people. Ew.
