    Jim Acosta is an amazing journalist and has a fantastic voice. I was really happy to find the podcast but the swearing is horrible. It’s not edgey and rock and roll; it’s vulgar. If you reduce the cuss words Jim I’ll

  • Great Journalism

    I love this version of Acosta unshackled by the constraints of corporate journalism. The guests are fantastic and Jim’s closing remarks summon the proper amount of outrage for the latest political news.

  • Hope and Truth

    Jim is an independent journalist through and through. I loved him on mainstream media but was done with mainstream media before he was. I was thrilled when he joined Substack and now he’s here. I support him live on Substack but if I miss him at 4 pm- it’s a lot easier queue this up with The Bulwark and my Cleveland.com at the end of the day to catch up. Thanks Jim
