To The Contrary with Charlie Sykes - Podcast Rankings and reviews

This is the very best podcast out there if you want to learn about the political issues of our time. Sykes has a distinguished resume as a podcaster, columnist and author. His guests are always thoughtful and well-prepared. He has much to offer for those who want to hear a different perspective and for those who are alarmed at the demagoguery in our politics today.

I was a daily listener of the Bulwark Podcast when Charlie hosted, and was devastated when he left. I missed his commentary, smarts, wit, and his rapport with his guests. Charlie kept me informed and entertained while preserving my sanity.

I’m beyond delighted that Charlie is back and just as good (if not better) than ever! And I feel like I need him more than ever since our political landscape is downright scary. Once again, Charlie will be my sanity preserver! 😀

So glad to see Charlie Sykes back to podcasting!! I love listening to Charlie & has guests have intelligent, in depth conversations with Charlie’s curiosity, occasional sense of humor & broad range of ideas, historical perspectives & literary references.

Fantastic insight and nuance delivered with a dry wit and a delicate sprinkling of profanity. Perfection.

I am always interested in Charlie Sykes’ commentary on current political events but the sound quality of this podcast is horrible- too loud, then too soft, unpredictably. Sounds just like it would if you were relying on your low quality laptop mic and moving a little when you speak. I’m unsubscribing because it’s just too annoying to try to listen to.
