    Love the podcast but the audio can be terrible sometimes. Please ask the nerds in the basement of the science building to help you with this. I’m certain this is what we need!

  • Enjoyable Podcast

    I took a break from listening to this podcast when my life changed and didn’t have the time to listen. Recently got back into the podcast and it is as great as I remember.

  • A much needed dose of perspective

    Refreshing to hear history put in context so well, but not surprising given the calibre of the hosts.

    The pod has been a beacon of rational analysis in the darkness of the past few years. I look forward to the conversation as the next few years bring new challenges for us to interpret.

    Hopefully the pace won’t be so high and Frank and David can take it a little easier.

  • Brilliant...

    But lord and mercy the audio quality goes from decent to totally horrendous and back again. Can we do a go fund me for a microphone or something? You are funny and insightful and relevant but some of the audio quality issues make great episodes near impossible to listen to. Only reason it’s not five stars. There’s got to be some free you tube videos on podcast audio quality!!! Thank you for doing this!

The news cycle is so crowded that this is not generating the attention it might deserve.
Whiskey Rebellion 297: Don't Know Much About Football

Q: What do you think about DC's unique status and its implications for governance?
