This is a Fabulous Podcast for learning about National as well as Local news. Brian not only provides the facts of the story, but also his analysis opinions on why the story is important to the listener. Sometimes I disagree with Brian, but listening to the podcast has made me a more informed citizen and critical thinker.
Bryan, I am so proud of you for using the exact words necessary to call out the dire threats we face internally as a nation. You are brave, well sourced, comprehensive, and not myopic. The big-picture you are able to detail is one of the strongest ringing bells we have to define what we as a country are up against. Thankful for you and this show!
I am thankful I’ve found this show. Bryan delivers a fresh reliable perspective that is backed by intelligence sources. It’s nice to find a source that chooses truth over clicks.
Right now this show is one of the few that actually stick to facts and is crystal clear when it switches to analysis and opinions. And even those are explained with a why, sources and honesty. I trust a shrinking amount of newsagents anymore, really glad I have this one to keep me informed and to keep me sane!
Bryan regularly gets the facts and data wrong. Worse, he encourages his listeners to engage with him but then blocks those who call out his errors. Bryan portrays an air of objectivity but he is just the bottom shelf version of the ideological talking heads on TV (think Rachel Maddow). If you want real, objective news, I would recommend The President’s Daily Brief, Honestly (The Free Press) or something similar.
I was told this show was a guy who just shared the facts. Nope. Super biased. For example, he mentions so many facts about Matt Geatz except that he has been under investigation for statuary rape and fellow ultra conservative congressman have noted his exploits with complete disdain. There are so many instances of ultra right bias; it’s not worth anyone’s time who takes news seriously.
