What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Matt and David are in touch with movements on the ground and political actors - not politicians, necessarily - who are working to create a more equitable future. Their show is an articulation of the theory that accompanies practice. Intellectual stuff rooted in grassroots organizing. This show is indispensable, awesome.

Kake Huron · Jul 2021

Exceptional insight and detail with the perfect amount of comedy and culture!

lefty from way back · Jul 2022

I like their relaxed voices and it’s smart and funny but not obnoxious like some left podcasts these days.

Bunny Cub · Aug 2021

I love that Matt and David have took up the mantle from Michael and are doing good work. I do have a technical critique though, for some reason whenever Matt speaks it creates some popping and crackling that can blow my ears out when I have headphones on. Plus it’s extremely distracting. Content wise I love it and I’m not surprised they are doing such a good job.
