Great show

Long time listener of the podcast. Michael hosts a wide range of guests and approaches each conversation with a healthy dose of insight and skepticism

Deliberately uninformed guest

Sorry for the 1-star, but I couldn't take it - Michael tries to play devil's advocate at some points, but he can't keep up with her BS. Really cringy exchanges on masks, vaccines, etc. Similar to listening to any leftist activist - has a bunch of talking points lined up and won't concede that anything of value could come from the other side.
