    Appears as 5 star without any entry. What’s up with this? BTW usually give this podcast 5 stars, but wondering if my rating counts.

  • James Carville? Really?

    Any podcast that has James Carville on it, and values his opinion, can’t be taken seriously.

    I am the biggest fan of not only the show, but of all things TK! I’ve been watching PTI since it first aired. Got addicted to the podcast pre Covid. Never miss an episode. Keep up the good work!

  • Politics free

    I’ve noticed most of vitriolic negative reviews come from the obvious maga base, who don’t get the concept of the show. It’s a fun show which avoids the cesspool of social media and political click baiters. Even Chuck Todd, Cilizza and Carville are careful to avoid the toxic political scene. I’m sure if you had a clown like Jesse waters or the admitted liar with the bow tie on every week, the haters would say you were great. Keep up the good work Tony. That being said the haters are right about ... more

  • No More Football Picks

    NFL Picks segment needs to be kaput. Chuck Todd tries way too hard and has been completely irrelevant to the mainstream public since September 2023; James Carville is an absolute clown at this point, everyone fast forwards through the monkey segment, and Jeff Ma may be considered the most boring individual in the history of podcast. Don’t even get me started on the horrendous March Madness guests you subject us to each year. Update- Greg Garcia is the most uninteresting and unfunny comedian I ha... more
