What People Are Saying

I can’t tell you enough

I can’t tell you enough how refreshing it is to have found a source of political media that cuts out the polarized bias and bull****. I found their podcast while looking for an alternative source of news and political discussion for my father and I. He’d abandoned Fox News and similar outlets after being too fed up with the misinformation and bias, and I took advantage of that and tried my best to find something from a reasonable, non-divisive perspective that we could *both* listen to and discuss. If you’re in a similar situation, look no further. Sense and Theory are your guys.

If you’re tired of listening

If you’re tired of listening to the screaming heads discuss politics, Sense & Theory is the podcast for you. Thanks for the thoughtful, intelligent, rational discussion about current issues such as immigration.

It’s nice to see these guys trying to encourage open conversation about politics. In a time where voices are far too often drowned out by opposing views, this podcast is urging people to stop, think, and engage in friendly debate. Throw in a pinch of comedy, and you’ve got podcast gold.

These guys are down to earth. They speak in english and approach each topic from multiple angles. No ranting or other BS. Try to get their facts straight and tell you when they didn’t.
