  • Tom Nichols: America's Problem Child

    Tom Nichols: America's Problem Child
    Aug 29 2025
    Trump is like a dysfunctional 8-year-old whose parents are always in the principal's office arguing that their son is a good boy. The media, CEOs, and Wall Street keep giving him a pass for his behavior while his supporters and apologists explain why he just had to set the school on fire. At the same time, he's empowering ideologues behind the scenes who are dismantling the government and executing their policy wet dreams. Plus, Joni Ernst's Senate tenure has been a sham, Vance tries Mickey Mouse Stalinism on for size, and what's going on with the bruising on Trump's right hand? The public has the right to know about the health of a president. Tom Nichols joins Tim Miller for the weekend pod.

  • Sam Stein and Talmon Smith: Brain Drain

    Sam Stein and Talmon Smith: Brain Drain
    Aug 28 2025
    The resignations of senior leaders at the CDC is a calamity. People with decades of expertise in infectious disease are leaving the agency because the new director—who Trump just appointed—refused to get on board with RFK's anti-vax crusade, including limiting access to Covid boosters. And Wednesday's violence in Minneapolis may be a sign that the FBI should be keeping its eye on the threats from domestic terror instead of arresting day laborers at Home Depot. Meanwhile, Trump's threat to the Fed's independence could pose a real risk to the stability of the U.S. Plus, more on the shifting attitudes about Israel among Dems, the latest attack on Kyiv is another reminder of how much Putin is mocking Trump, and remembering Katrina 20 years later.

    Sam Stein and the NYT's Talmon Smith join Tim Miller.

  • Jake Sullivan: Trump Is Making China Great Again

    Jake Sullivan: Trump Is Making China Great Again
    Aug 27 2025
    A year ago, China was globally isolated and its economy was struggling. But once Trump was back in office pursuing his own personal and political gain, the U.S. brand got tossed in the toilet and the view from Beijing got pretty sweet. Trump has allowed China to buy American microchips that could be used against our own national security interests, he caved on his own trade war with the country, and the divisions he's creating with allies in the West have made China's propaganda job a whole lot easier. Plus, the tragedy in Gaza, the evolving U.S.-Israel relationship, the one powerful way to squeeze Putin's war machine, and re-examining Biden's original plan to run for re-election. Former National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan joins Tim Miller.

In the beginning, I had really enjoyed and loved the podcast until I had gotten tired of Tim Miller's ability to play a very dark devil's advocate. i found it so dark that I began to wonder if he knew and liked the "devil." Try it for yourself, though, because your experience may be different. All that said I have just followed his Hollywood podcast and just seeing the show's 'bio' I'm gonna loved it.

Devil's Advocate...

Full of political commentary from a Never Trump perspective, this podcast is informative and important on what the Trumpist Right is doing to harm America

Great Podcast

Tim is outstandingly quick Twitter and amusing while possessing an extra sense for what maybe going on out there...great guests with which Tim continually demonstrates a genuine report - even when opinions don't exactly align. Amazing that he puts out top shelf product on a daily basis...obviously, he never stops listening, thinking, asking, etc. ...strongly opinionated with facts to back him!

Tim never fails!

Political discussion in GOOD FAITH.

I may not always agree with Charlie, but his sincere discussion on all of the day's latest topics help me stay up to date with the latest news and bring a logical and rational perspective to all of it. His perspectives along with many of his guests bring a point of view that tries to take a step back and look at the overall picture and how current events compare and contrast with history and the basic principles of democracy. Highly recommended.

The podcast that got me to like Podcasts

Great explanation of how corruption work and how it can wear people down until they are part of the corruption.

Great podcast!

This interview was so helpful in putting the listener in that kibbutz on the day of the attack. Mona barely had to ask questions because the storyteller was a fellow journalist. I benefited from his reasoned explanations of the now and the potential future for the government and the region.

I would consider myself somewhere inside the shrinking center-left bubble of our vastly expanding political spectrum, likely more in line with the Pod Save/Crooked Media crowd on most issues. But hell if Tim and the Bulwark boys(and girls, love A.B. and Sarah) don't always provide some intelligent and nuanced insight on the current political climate with occasional doses of sarcasm and mockery. Tim might have failed in Washington, but he's got a daily listener in me going forward, whatever that's worth! ;)
