  • Why the Couch F'er chose Catholicism

    You all are giving Vance way too much credit. The reason him and PT landed on Catholicism is very simple. Everyone loved JFK and he was Catholic.

He will drop it like a hot potato if he doesn't get the 2028 presidential nomination..

A truer word would be let’s speculate. Because really that’s all you’re doing and you don’t need a news podcast for that! The trigger for me was calling Jeremy Corbyn an anti-semite (as campaigned by the Daily Mail et al) and agreeing that Boris Johnson was a good politician !!! Very revealing indeed. Tells me... more

  • Wolff is tedious

    It’s always more interesting when Joanna is with someone who’s not so invested in one-upmanship.
