Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I as a politically agnostic person appreciate something like this exists, I find the discussions here are more relevant and informative than the mainstream media. I like the good old fashioned discussion on issues from two perspectives,I think it’s important to get a true understanding of often nuanced topics. My largest issue is Krystal has strong opinions and feelings, which is fine, but often times doesn’t let Sager have a chance to express how he feels, and if she does IMMEDIATELY cuts him back down.. I don’t notice him do the same . Would just like a little more balance.

I listen every day. Because of his show I get a much clearer, well rounded, picture of the issues. I generally agree with Saagar but I love hearing the oppositional points Krystal and Ryan bring. Small complaint is how much Saagar talks over EVERYONE! lol. Another point of criticism is the automatic bias that the left is generally portrayed as inherently innocent of all corruption and evil doing and the right is only out for corporations and are the root of all evil.
I try to tell everyone about how great this show is.

Happy to have found this podcast. I enjoy hearing two sides to the same issue and appreciate the host’s respect for each other through differing views. It seems most of the negative reviews I’ve read are used to Fox News and see any liberal perspective as offensive. I believe the “point” is not promoting a completely neutral view of issues but a balanced view which I really appreciate. Thanks for doing what you do!

I honestly thought that I had become so biased in my opinions that the one show I trusted to give me good points for both sides and assist in balancing my opinions when it comes to politics, had gone so left - I assumed I had become unreasonable. But seeing 80% of people share my beliefs, I now know I’m not crazy. Simply said the show is no longer unbiased.

Krystal has become so emotional it’s unbearable. It’s her show now and Saggar gets in a statement at times. She pushes back (Very rare that she has to now) which is what I liked, but now when he talks, he just agrees with EVERYTHING she says! He can’t get in a word 😂

It’s two people who agree on everything which is “The left has made a some mistakes, but the right is bad business.

Krystal doesn’t realize that by hating the right so much and never letting Saggar speak, even though he’s now just a little less left than her, it’s crushing the dynamic and the REASON we all loved the show!

I feel bad saying this because I really love these two, but it’s now just an echo chamber of mainstream media 😬

I’m a moderate, but this show is great for lefties.

I first learned of this show from their interview on JRE. I loved the concept of a left/right wing perspective on currents events and news. Unfortunately, that is the furthest thing from what this show actually is. The one supposedly “center right populist” has no backbone and constantly gets walked all over by his co host Krystal who spews the most radical left wing views and opinions with zero consideration of different points of view. Her view is the correct view and that’s it. Saager needs to either push back or call her out for this show to actually live up to what it claims to be. I’ve been listening on and off hoping things change but they haven’t and I don’t see them changing at all. Their opinion on the Afghanistan withdrawal was absurd which is what originally I stopped listening for. Now it seems as if they have hopped on the Kamala Harris train like every other news outlet presenting a completely biased view of the upcoming election. If a left wing political commentary show is what you are looking for this is it but do not fall for the trap and waste your time thinking this has any “presenting all sides” as it simply does not do this.

Followed them from Rising and was a premium subscriber from day one, but just finally had to cancel. The balance and back and forth is gone, in Krystal’s “what I think about everything” hour, and it feels like junior high sneering much of the time—unprofessional. I tuned in here to get away from that sneering, condescending, cable vibe, and it’s morphed into whatI was fleeing, over this last year. Luckily for me, I stumbled onto The Free Press, with similar goals to the original BP, but the quality of journalism is not comparable-/head and shoulders above. Also, they polled all of their editors prior to the election, and they were split evenly between Trump, Harris, and undecided…kind of like the actual COUNTRY! I dare you to find another newsroom that balanced. Hearing a lot of opinion here like mine about the demise of BP—just offering an alternative that I’ve found to be useful.
