  • Tom Nichols: The Cat Was in the Basement

    Tom Nichols: The Cat Was in the Basement
    Sep 18 2024
    JD Vance thought he had confirmation of his Haitian migrant conspiracy when a Springfield, OH resident filed a police report about her missing cat. But Miss Sassy was just in the basement, safe and sound. More seriously, Vance and Trump want everyone who's not on their team to shut up, so they can rile up their supporters and prime people for violence. Meanwhile, has the MAGA duo become such losers that even Joe Rogan and the bro-sphere have had enough?

    Tom Nichols joins Tim Miller.

    Amy Walter: A 50-50 Race
    Sep 17 2024
    The presidential race is essentially tied, with movement on the margins that may not be picked up in polling. So prepare for a lot of mood swings in the next seven weeks. Amy Walter and Tim Miller dive deep into PA voters v WI voters, Penn State grad Trump fans, and the prospects for Kamala in NC v GA. Plus, a cliffhanger in the House.

  • Bill Kristol: Fanning the Flames

    Bill Kristol: Fanning the Flames
    Sep 16 2024
    MAGA is trying to take political advantage of what was apparently a second assassination attempt on Trump, but it's not the Democrats who routinely encourage violence. Trump himself only recently joked about the attack on Paul Pelosi. Meanwhile, Vance admits he created stories about Haitian immigrants, the Des Moines Register poll points to the way the political winds are blowing, and finally some Emmy justice for "Hacks."

    Bill Kristol joins Tim Miller.

Tim never fails!

Tim is outstandingly quick Twitter and amusing while possessing an extra sense for what maybe going on out there...great guests with which Tim continually demonstrates a genuine report - even when opinions don't exactly align. Amazing that he puts out top shelf product on a daily basis...obviously, he never stops listening, thinking, asking, etc. ...strongly opinionated with facts to back him!

The podcast that got me to like Podcasts

Political discussion in GOOD FAITH.

I may not always agree with Charlie, but his sincere discussion on all of the day's latest topics help me stay up to date with the latest news and bring a logical and rational perspective to all of it. His perspectives along with many of his guests bring a point of view that tries to take a step back and look at the overall picture and how current events compare and contrast with history and the basic principles of democracy. Highly recommended.

Reasoned Witness Perspective

This interview was so helpful in putting the listener in that kibbutz on the day of the attack. Mona barely had to ask questions because the storyteller was a fellow journalist. I benefited from his reasoned explanations of the now and the potential future for the government and the region.

Excellent political podcast

I would consider myself somewhere inside the shrinking center-left bubble of our vastly expanding political spectrum, likely more in line with the Pod Save/Crooked Media crowd on most issues. But hell if Tim and the Bulwark boys(and girls, love A.B. and Sarah) don't always provide some intelligent and nuanced insight on the current political climate with occasional doses of sarcasm and mockery. Tim might have failed in Washington, but he's got a daily listener in me going forward, whatever that's worth! ;)
