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.
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 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.
Crystal is a gifted interviewer and can guide her guests through their hesitations to speak frankly on sensitive subjects. She is able to get her views across with finesse and understanding rather than showy domineering. I’d listen more often, but the annoying and overwhelming ads are too much. Then I hear her say they never talk to advert and I get super confused.
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.
This show started strong. It was great hearing Saagar’s honest opinion - one which the mainstream wouldn’t agree with. However, ever since Kamala entered the race, they immediately started drinking the liberal media Koolaid by constantly talking about how her “vibes” would take her straight to the White House. And now they are sponsored by MSNBC. The show has gone downhill significantly in the last few months.
