    I’m really glad to have found this podcast! It is a quality production, and surprisingly manages to remain impartial despite the polarising topics discussed. I will be sure recommend this podcast to my friends, so don’t hesitate to give it a listen and share it with your friends & family.

  • No Longer What It Was

    CSIS used to be an intellectual podcast with scholarly guests and top bar analysis. Now it’s just another talking head show with politically biased noise. If I want to see a TV news anchor complain about his rival, you don’t need CSIS.

  • Pretends to be non partisan

    Using a CNN reporter to offer a fair view of FOX is like asking the fox to guard the chicken coop.

  • This is a podcast that is so needful in the time we live!

    Jonathan has a great podcast going here! I was first introduced to “The Truth of the Matter Is…” while preparing to interview him on my podcast. His background has prepared him for the topics he shares from the Bible - but he has a unique way of drawing the listener into the story. During our interviewed, I know I mentioned it two or three times how “blown away” I was by his podcast! And the “name” says it all… “The Truth of the Matter Is…” I highly recommend this show!
