The PoliticsGirl Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Lee is one of most astute political podcasters in the mix. I always appreciate hearing her take on the state of the country and the fight to defeat fascism and protect freedom, human rights and democracy. I think she is much better than the majority at clearly and straight-forwardly stating the grave risks that the freedom hating fascist Trump leadership coalition represents as well as how to defeat this dark force.

Thanks Lee for the courageous hard work! I do not always agree, but I usually do, and always find your thoughts, analysis and perseverance to be valuable.

I just started listening to this podcast a couple of months before the 2024 presidential election. I am so impressed with Leigh McGowan’s passion and her deeply analytical analysis of contemporary politics. She doesn’t use theatrics and fear mongering as persuasion; rather, she states pleasant and unpleasant facts. Based on facts, the listener needs to make a personal decision on how important our country’s democratic institutions are, and what you are willing to do to value and protect them going forward. This is an absolutely crucial time in American politics where authoritarianism is on the rise domestically and globally. We need to act and not just lament about the state of political affairs. Thank you for being a beacon of light, reason and rationality, Leigh! Bravo!

I look forward to Leigh’s podcast every week - one of the few I follow consistently. I have learned so much and am so grateful for how she shows up and educates us about what is going on. I also find her “rants” very validating, when my mind is just boggled and outraged. Her values of compassion, justice, truth shine. So glad I have her to listen to in this trying time.

I appreciate all the rants, questions and discussions Leigh brings out in her podcast! Politics is such a hard topic, of mega importance and there is so much detail we all do not hear about through main stream media! Listen up, I dig deep into these subjects and Leigh brings many discussions with experts who can enlighten and activate you to ‘know better’ when someone tries to spread lies.
