DeProgram with John Kiriakou and Ted Rall - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I randomly found this podcast while scrolling and wow, the importance of the information here cannot be denied. As a woman not within the political sphere and who, frankly, feels uninformed at times, these episodes keep me up to date on world events in a concise, easy to chew format. Y’all have earned yourself a listener!

I’ve learned a lot from John—he’s a fantastic storyteller, and I’ve followed nearly all of his work over the years. Unfortunately, this show has become difficult to watch. John often seems distracted, scrolling through his phone/computer while Ted is talking. Then again, I can understand why—it’s tough to stay engaged when Ted comes across as whiny, bitter, and overly negative, particularly toward women.
John, please don’t lose your humility—that’s what makes you so relatable. Robby has been a great addition to the dynamic; honestly, the show would be much stronger as just John and Robby. Ted adds very little at this point.
