2022-05-07: Names Named

A weekly current events podcast where the hosts discuss whatever is hot in the news each week.

Two old friends engage in weekly discussion of current political events from mostly liberal stance. Occasionally, a guest discussant replaces one of them. Great fun to listen, agree with, disagree with, be upset by some of the language, and ponder on. As an occasional guest, I may be biased but find the end result to be worth an investment of a couple hours each week of my time. Keep it up, guys.

Current Politics, and other subjects, Discussions

Listen in on a conversation you might have late night with a buddy over a beer or two or three.   I don&#39;t always agree, but fun to listen to.

Two guys ranting about stuff
