What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This is my favorite political podcast. I’m a conservative millennial mom, same age as Meghan, interests and views align. It’s the only place to listen to real conservative views by a thoughtful woman that aren’t tainted by unmoored populism and MAGA. Great guests and great conversation. This and Mark Halperin’s Two Way keep politics in perspective. I understand Meghan and Miranda are old friends, but Miranda’s post-election behavior and thoughts were just absurd. She unfortunately either can’t keep up with Meghan or doesn’t do the work to keep up, and that’s the only downside to this show.

Conservative Boy Mom Esq. · Dec 2024

This used to be my favorite podcast but it’s not what it used to be, even just a few months ago. Meghan gets a fantastic lineup of guests and her knowledge and insider expertise shines through in her questions and discussions. But I’ve noticed that the quality is slipping. Her producer Miranda has been featured too much recently. Miranda whines constantly and doesn’t seem well informed or educated on the issues. I end up skipping when she’s on. They also seem to take a lot of hiatuses, which isn’t going to help them build momentum.

bloomies1289 · Dec 2024

I love Meghan McCain and have been listening to her podcast since the beginning. Overall, it's excellent. It's so refreshing to hear guests from both sides and Meghan always engages in excellent conversation. The only thing I'm not sold on is Miranda - she might be a tad lightweight in terms of the political talk and her "depression" after the election was a turn off. Meghan needs someone like V Spehar to spar with on a regular basis on the show. Otherwise, the podcast is superb and I'm legit upset when they skip a week. Wishing you the best, Meghan!

Shanto1138 · Nov 2024

Meghan does a fantastic job providing relevant statistics about who voted in the election and why. She brought an excellent cohost, post-Republican and Democrat, to share their perspective on the campaign trail and that, ultimately, the media did such an massive disservice to the American people. Great perspectives and information, especially for those in the Democratic Party wanting to reflect on what might move the needle in the next election.
