  • Peter Hamby: The Mini Dictator Wants What He Wants
    Oct 17 2025
    The administration under sticky fingers Trump is now pretending it cares about the sanctity of classified documents, while it seems that Marco Rubio is the one pushing for regime change in Venezuela. In California, the redistricting ballot measure has been seen as one of the most significant battles in the November election, but the Supreme Court may end up disrupting the Dem’s effort to retake the House next year. Plus, Democrats are winning the under-covered shutdown fight, but why is Schumer meddling in the Maine and Michigan Senate primary fights? And the right-wingers complaining about Bad Bunny are such nerd losers.

    Peter Hamby joins Tim Miller for the weekend pod.

  • Anne Applebaum: The Loss of 'Democratic Faith'
    Oct 16 2025
    The U.S. has been a model for other aspiring democracies since 1776. At the same time, the idea of America as the leader of the democratic world has also had a unifying effect at home. It’s what has kept this diverse country of many faiths and ethnicities together, and it has been our national identity. But with Trump actively undermining those ideals, what will we be unified around? Plus, the potential new whites-favored refugee policy, Trump’s psychological comfort to the Russian war effort, Hegseth got himself a state media press room at the Pentagon, JD is totally cool with lots of Nazi talk—and could the administration be trying to start a war in Venezuela so it can expand its militaristic crackdown on the streets here?

    Anne Applebaum joins Tim Miller.

  • Heather Cox Richardson: An Attack on Our System of Government
    Oct 15 2025
    Republicans in Congress know that what they’re doing is deeply unpopular—on healthcare, supporting troops in the streets, and on redistricting. That’s why they’re basically in hiding, plotting new ways to try to shift the narrative. But because they’ve given their Constitutional power away to Trump & company, unelected officials in the administration are now making the taxing and spending decisions. Meanwhile, Trump has another monument in the works. Plus, Democrats and the Senate race in Maine, another military strike in the Caribbean, and MTG may be a bellwether of MAGA’s future.

    Heather Cox Richardson joins Tim Miller.

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!

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.

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.

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! ;)
