      Spotify would sooner manipulate the numbers than allow their golden boy to be beaten

      I gravitate towards Breaking Points, I think they have a good balance of opinions, being able to criticize trump heavily and still hold the Democratic party to account for being incompetent

        More Perfect Union takes a lean on working class and poor people, trying to show how much we have in common, either side.

        I think the bullshit ends when we can back away from identity politics long enough to unite and thus scare the bejeezus out of the donor class.

    What is the meidas touchs political spectrum? Are they neo liberal centrists, never Trump Republicans, populist progressives?

    I mostly listen to breaking points for political content.

          Why? You could just listen to them and decide if they are your cup of tea or not in 5 min. Its not like you’re gonna be infected by some mind virus.

        Everyone has their ideology. If a political podcast doesn’t know what their own ideology is, I don’t want to listen to it.

          No, only ideologues have an ideology. The fact that you’ve never met someone who isn’t an ideologue, or you’re not interested in what they have to say, is deeply saddening to me.

            I want to thank you for letting me know that I shouldn’t bother with this podcast. This defense tells me all I need to know.

        Because some people are apologists and sycophants for the Democratic party. Calling someone a neolib puts them squarely in that category.

    I tried Medias Touch for an episode or three in early/middle of last year and it just didn’t do it for me. Have they changed the format/content much?

    For my political / news related, I tend to do Tangle and Breaking Points with a small smattering of It Could Happen Here. How does their current presentation style compare to that?
