I just discovered this podcast and enjoy the host’s calm, intelligent demeanor. He really lets the guests express their thoughts and I find this interesting as I find some of his guests views difficult to get onboard with but I would like to understand how they got there.

Jordano825 · Sep 2026

The host, Andrew Gold, takes such a calm and measured approach to all subjects and doesn’t rely on pure “hot takes” to share his positions. Really glad I stumbled on this show and would definitely recommend!
