DSR's Words Matter - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Their inaugural relaunching of Words Matter was one of the best podcasts I’ve heard: NO and KP are both engaging conversationalists who really listen to one another, and it’s obvious that they care deeply about the issues (guns and abortion in this episode). They have a rare fund of experience in government, political science, and medicine, and they do their homework to an unusual extent, backing their opinions with many citations to recent studies. In a world of bloviators, Norm and Kavita (and their DSR colleagues) stand high above the crowd. Listening to them, I even felt glimmers of optimism that we might see rationality returning to our discourse and our society! An unusual feeling these days, and I’m grateful.

I've listened to a few episodes and am loving it so far. This podcast is full of interesting historical facts & context, important takeaways and helpful information to use when navigating current events from a media perspective. Keep up the great work!

Smart interviews that provide great context and historical background for major issues of the day. It’s news that is also fun to hear.

Appreciated her insight and analysis on Deep State Radio and look forward to her deeper dives here. The first episode is a great start to the relaunch.

I love Talking Feds but have given up on this one. NO is interesting although a little windy, but KP, in the time i’ve been listening to this, cannot deliver a clear and concise thought. Instead, she hops around, makes asides and clarifications, and switches subjects…all in one sentence! Who has the time or energy to try to figure out what she’s saying?

There are so many talking heads out there. Listen to Talking Feds…they focus on the same issues and can be understood without struggle.

I used to listen to you regularly and took a break after 10/7. I wanted to hear what you had to say about the protests in your 4/26 episode and I’m shocked at your lack of research. JEWISH students at Columbia were invited to do zoom classes because the school wouldn’t guarantee their safety. Columbia students and professors are calling for the death of Jewish students through signs and slogans. Please do not downplay what is happening on college campuses. Please research primary sources. I wondered why good people seem so complacent with the rise of US antisemitism. Reporting like this is why.
