What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Best show with solid news and fair and entertaining commentary. This has become my daily “go to” for news and I love that this is now available in podcast form.

216AF · May 2026

I love the premise and execution of this podcast with one note: stop managing time so diligently. Mark offers up great topics for discussion/debate, but he is too obsessed with timing or covering planned topics that he constantly interrupts his co-hosts mid-sentence, before they can complete their thought. In most cases, they are not being verbose - they just need to finish their thought. Either allot more time per topic and have fewer topics, or drop a topic that you don’t have time to get to at the end, or simply go over time. Does the actual time matter in a podcast and on YouTube?

Lili12008 · Mar 2026

I love listening to 3 of the most informed journalists debate the political issues of the day! Home run with the intro music - most awesome! Love it!! Thanks for all you do - I need to hear your views to help break down facts from fiction.

Ceceliae · Oct 2025

Mark, Sean and Dan are all real gentlemen and discuss politics as it should be. They respect each other’s opinions, listen to each other and don’t rant and rave at each other or their listeners and viewers that ask questions on their show. The amount of knowledge they each have and their many contacts in Washington lead to the great education of the viewer or listener.
