    I started listening to your show because I get the best of the left podcast and he recommended your show, Midweek Politics. I found you again after you changed the show’s name.

    I think you standing firm on some subjects is hillarious. You plod along until you find something horrifying enough to make you lose your cool.

    I like Louis a little bit. You might want to let hime express his opinion more (ie. ‘is it not, Louis?’) without creating boundaries for an informed opinion. Take TYT’s Ana as an example. She does not always know what she is talking about, but the learning comes by listening to feel her way to what is at stake. I think Louis is at least as capable as she is without all the intellectual curiosity you may have.

    Good job.

    What a frustrating and contradictory woman. Pakman is a very patient interviewer.

    Godshakes!
