Love the show, really thoughtful commentary and I like hearing the callers. I’m curious though why the break after every two callers? There is no ad often. Let the conversation go and develop. Fewer breaks!

Either stop your war mongering or am deleting this podcast. I don't need to hear every episode that Ukraine needs more American money while I am dying from lack of healthcare.

Am in the process of getting off Twitter and I would trust you more if you did too. Jesus stop worrying about how many followers you have lost. It makes you less credible.
