sensible unlike Trump, Jon is always entertaining. Klobuchar is balanced and wise. it was a good session

informative

The manner in which I can review pertinent news in a non "the sky is falling" and non promotional and opinionated way. They at least speak of the times they jest.

PS I couldn't find how to submit feedback, so just an idea.... Have Harris choose Pence or other honorable conservative for VP. Let's put our money where our mouth is and show unity, discussion, and find commonality as a basis to move forward.

Fair and balanced - for real!

Love the intellectual conversations, shows that Stewart truly cares, which gives him more credibility in his work as a comedian on The Daily Show

Look forward to it every week

Finally, news shared honestly and with fun honest humor. This takes me back to the good ole days when Jon Stewart was on Comedy Central. Now he’s back, on a podcast, and he’s able to be more of himself to explain and asks questions regarding the politics and the news.

This podcast format is my favorite. An interesting conversation with intelligent people about crucial issues. And somehow the humor sprinkled through makes it easier to process.

Interesting view of current events

I deeply respect Jon Stewart. He helped me laugh through my tears when George W got elected. He showed up and stayed there after 911. He gave me the courage to call into the Sean Hannity show about a flat tax (I was not allowed to ask that question and had to pivot to the environment and he kicked my ass in that conversation). I attended his Rally to Restore Sanity. Stephen Colbert's fictitious team insanity just got real.

Thank you for the impact you make and I hope you haven't stroked out yet. You've been helping us all cope for a long time. Please keep fighting the good fight, helping us all laugh when things suck, and ALWAYS being more informative on facts than most news shows..

John Stewart is a national treasure! I so appreciate the witty and insightful conversations with both theological allies and those w different outlooks.

In these darkest of political times, Stewart is a source of comfort, insight, and amusement.

I am grateful that John will Keep being the bright light that he is- and speaking truth to lovers, haters, and everyone in-between.

They'd be God... if the title was not already spoken for. 😉
I just spent the last couple weeks streaming every podcast episode available and sharing some with my family. The variety of topics discussed at intelligent and precise levels are wide and wonderful. Thought provoking and marvelous!
No doubt, the best of the best episodes deal with coverage about our beloved Veterans and the eye opening struggles that are fearlessness covered.

BEST EPISODE TO DATE: When the team spent a week in DC to help get the PACT act passed. The real life boots on the ground approach was magnificent!! Imma go listen to that one again right now!
Thanks Jon and Team!!

Jon Stewart and Team are Demi-Gods!!!

Not only is this show funny to listen to, but it is also educational! I love the range of topics, from informing us how our government systems work (or are supposed to work) to engaging in healthy, well researched, structured debates.

One of the things I love most about this podcast is that it offers perspectives from both Liberals and Conservatives. No voices are silenced, no one is name calling each other. It's a truly respectful space where ideas are shared openly. It's been great to be able to recommend this podcast to the conservative people I know in hopes they will learn something.

A very well-informed and balanced take

Perfectly titled. Just press play and listen.

*Thank you to Tocarra and Kris for making me feel seen (and for making me laugh which has not been easy this past week). Thank you to the law professors for teaching me a thing or two about Originalism. And thank you Jon for always joining the conversation and defending what's right as vehemently as you do. Seeing/hearing you passionately and intellectually pose and defend strong arguments gives me life and makes me feel empowered.

Everything I need right now
