OMG you weren't kidding. Triggered is an understatement.
Yes!
I can’t wait for her to spill her ugly guts.
Omg it was excruciating listening to Nathan Thrall’s shrill voice. I don’t know how you kept your cool. I liked the angle of having an author to interview but Thrall should stick to writing not shrieking.
Look forward to listening to you and your interviewees Michael. Your pain comes across clearly and what has happened to you is repugnant. In any other civilised society Trump would have been arrested long AGO, wealthy or not. What the hell is wrong with the US? I've listened to your podcasts from the beginning and your despair, anxiety and rage is clearly affecting you. Understandable - I too gave up criminal law due to a nasty defendantnt who threatened my family leaving me leaping when even a car door slammed. Please make sure you have good people to talk to around you to maintain your strength. You are no good to those who love you as a broken man and they are more important than Trump. Pls identify the point when you will step away for sanity's sake.. He got you once.... With very best wishes. Yvonne 🇦🇺
He would look lovely in a bright matching Orange jumpsuit!
Love your show, Michael!! Keep on him, and keep 'em coming!! Dave from Canada
I love when Harry is on.
OK. Michael have you joined up with the pillow guy to compliment your beds?
Cohen, love you my friend. Just call him Donald, not "the former president. Donald is more courtesy than he deserves but we have integrity unlike him. Keep it up!
Of all of Trump's abuses perhaps the worst abuses are the excuses the GOP make for him.
How about an interview with Rich Logis, a former Republican pundit and twice-Trump voter who founded the group Perfect Our Union?
Yas! This is absolutely amazing take on the Gop and Donald Trump and Merrick! We will stop the Gop and Jake Smith will Lock Up Trump! Love this pod cast!
This episode I won't be listening to. This dipshit is too much for the ears.
RFK Jr. seems to think he knows everything about vaccines. Does he have a PhD. in any science?
hey Mike what do you.say about agreeing with someone 100% of the time... this is where me and u split.. this guy sounds legit. you can tell he's on to something because everyone hates him now...
This episode was just weird and tabloid sensationalist. I really tried to give it a chance until the sexting conversation. I turned it off after that question. sheesh.. its just icky.
He's been grooming her since she was born. She's a Stepford Daughter
Who cares that Trump always avoided writing his own emails.... he does media interviews instead... fucking loving it!!
great episode!
