  • Not so much

    Used to be a fairly decent show to listen to. Then Fox News replaced ABC News on the station. Mitch is now just another right-wing mouthpiece. Lots of moaning and whining by the host, who used to be much more politically neutral. Yawn.

  • Unfair view

    Dear Mitch,

    I am a fan of your books and read all of them and want to read more. I think you write wisely and touch many peoples lives.

    I also follow your podcasts, but intend to stop doing that due to your unfair and maybe uneducated views about the latest war in Palestine.

    I do not think that destroying buildings and killing children and shielding schools is called self-defense.

    I am a Palestinian living in Jordan and United Arab Emirates and the States and was surprised by your article. more
