Used to be a great podcast. The hosts *are* great. The effort to do more politician interviews and mine it all for video clips has made it forgettable. Really too bad.
Sorry but I had to comment on this. How does a news/culture podcast not mention Stephen Colbert when talking about South Carolina and the Dems primary schedule. Y’all need more hot takes
Joel is here to breathe life into the pod. I always love Bryan’s insights and takes but respectfully David doesn’t add too much. Joel lifts the pod.
Part of the allure is the natural chemistry between Bryan & David. The show is at its best when those two really get deep into a topic (instead of mostly Bryan doing the news & David saying “yeah” & “mmm hmmm”). Sometimes the sameness can be boring.
Curtis is a tremendous interviewer. Not sure why the Ringer doesn’t use him in other channels.
Joel has been a disaster since Day 1. J-school was lame, he’s not interesting, & has zero charisma and zero rapport with Bryan. Seems like the Ringer c... more
Love the show! I just wanted to note that Shapiro spent so many answers pointing fingers and taking shots at others in his party while saying that Dems should be focused on the people instead of intra-party battles. GSD doesn’t include seeing public school funding crater or allowing Republicans to take over the budget process and take their anger out on Philadelphia.
I love the questions y’all ask in every interview but would love more follow-ups to their answers. Press Box is still the best s... more
