For anyone else that doesn't want to have to click to know
I can’t say I’ve seen Meidas. I lean more heavily on More Perfect Union.
Both are solid choices. I also like Thom Hartman.
He's great. I already watch the Majority Report almost daily.
This is the way...
I know that name. Air America? Back when there was a single Liberal radio station with him, Rachel Maddow, and Al Franken?
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 gotta slap labels on people and put them into boxes?
Because some people are apologists and sycophants for the Democratic party. Calling someone a neolib puts them squarely in that category.
Some people just like calling each other names so they can discount their opinions, I guess.
Yeah, basically that.
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 it fucking matters.
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.
Only to ideologues.
Lemme know when they dethrone him on Spotify, then I'll be impressed.
Spotify would sooner manipulate the numbers than allow their golden boy to be beaten
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?
Yay Meidas Touch! AFAIK they also have a blog/news site/whatever, so not just videos.
I assume they're refering to Youtube?
Thank GOD it's not podsaveamerica
