What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I discovered Adam’s podcast when he began speaking up for democracy (THANK YOU!). As a left leaning independent living in Trump Country Kentucky, it’s been really nice listening to some sane viewpoints. My Republican voting family has left the party & don’t plan on returning until the current trajectory changes. However, we’re all onboard for Adam. Your bravery has not gone unnoticed. Change won’t be easy or fast, but we cannot do it without people like you. Please, don’t give up no matter what happens in your district. Run for higher office! You have our Kentucky votes! I’m loving your guests by the way. You have excellent conversations and I look forward to episodes each week. Keep it up!

Urban Chameleon · Jun 2021

Excellent and insightful interview with Russell Moore. You are both both men of principle and courage, willing to speak the truth even when the opposition is fierce. I have always considered myself a Republican, but like many others, see that it has lost its way as a party promoting character and integrity, and is currently led by men lacking in both. Thanks for your leadership. (from 1 of the 7000)

Thank you for doing this podcast and starting your group. Both are sorely needed in these times, both are a breath of fresh air and sanity.

I am a Democrat and so pleased to find this podcast. Thank you everyone. You’re giving me hope that we can unite and pull ourselves out of this mess. It’s been created by both sides, many unscrupulous people in power and loads of money and manipulation. Thank you for cutting through the lies and holding up the truth.
