  • Excellent podcast.

    Since the country is splitting into far left and far right extremists it’s great to see a well informed and engaging podcast from the sane center. They can make fun of us all they want but I hope the future of politics is represented by the views of people like Jeremiah.

  • Charlie Kirk podcast unhinged

    Huge fan of your podcast but the response to Charlie Kirk’s assassination was wild. That was everything that the problem of our country is. You clearly have only seen chopped up clips of him and I’m not even a fan of Kirk. Be better. Never expected that from you.

  • Not a fan of host.

    Guy Has a weird voice, his politics is basically left bashing way more than is necessary, and if this is the right guy, lied about ta nieshi Coates with zero apology cuz the guy was too critical of Israel. Worst part is this podcast reeks of someone trying to be relevant.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

A New Plan for DC ft. Kenyan McDuffie
Q: Can you explain what you mean by community-oriented policing and how it differs from a tougher-on-crime approach?
Community-oriented policing focuses on building trust and integrating officers into the neighborhoods they serve, combining quality policing with prevention, transparency, and engagement with schools and community centers, rather than merely increasing post-crime enforcement.
Do Democrats have a 'Slopulism' problem? ft. Ben Ritz
Q: Why is affordability slop seen as problematic for Democrats?
Because promising large-scale affordability through tax cuts and subsidies without addressing underlying cost drivers tends to fuel inflation, erode trust in government, and make long-term reform politically and financially unsustainable.
Do Democrats have a 'Slopulism' problem? ft. Ben Ritz
Q: What concrete proposals are out there and what do they do?
Two major proposals are discussed: an alternative tax system under Van Hollen that would exempt the under-92,000 earners from federal income tax and a larger plan from Cory Booker that expands standard deductions and tax credits, though both are debated for their distributional effects and overall cost.
New Liberal Mailbag #11
Q: Taylor asks why the host pursues daily questions about the 'main character' on social media.
The host explains it's a method to escape algorithmic bubbles, understand broad versus niche topics, and track what dominates discourse versus what fades, framing it as research for Infinite Scroll and personal insight into public conversation.
New Liberal Mailbag #11
Q: Emma asks why Iran's nuclear capabilities are not the primary focus of criticism and what a better strategy would be.
The host acknowledges Iran's nuclear threat as significant but contends that diplomacy and negotiated deals (as under Obama) were more effective than abrupt regime-change approaches, while noting the Trump reversal and current escalation.
