EekSpiderLoved this in depth conversationI am so excited to discover ‘Conversations with Bill Kristol!’ I’ve been listening and reading Mr Kristol’s political analyses on The Bulwark, and just learned about this series. Thank you, Mr Kristol, I appreciate the hard work and dedication to us, not just as your audience, but as concerned citizens who are grappling for answers and insights.

mrfriebeMeeting a real need in tdy’s media landscapeInformative, long form interviews with compelling guests.

THF SeattleLarry SummersIt was an extremely informative conversation. Secretary Summer’s analogy to how Argentina ruined its economy and governance is very relevant. I appreciate him not tying us to what the Germans did in the 30’s. However, we in many ways are way more stupid than the Germans. This is a prosperous country, yet our people decided a convicted felon and wannabe dictator is the guy who should be in the WH.

Sydney StevoWhen Mars AttacksAs in the ‘50s sci fi genre, the invaders from outer space attacked the Earth, the Americans made up with their erstwhile foes to save life as we’d known it, my Bulwark right of center family have become endeared to my pinko heart. Bill’s da bomb. (Bill, that’s ya compliment).
-
brenace.rnWHY AREN’T YOU BLAMING THE REPUBLICANSThey hold the majority in both the congress and the senate, they are the ones that cave in, they are the only one that can stop Tump, You guys know the Democrats have no power, You should be shaming Johnson and the republicans who caved, you guys only talk about the democrats but don’t mention how the republicans gave Trump all their power. Wake up to the reality!!! Plus who approved all the incompetent people Trump nominated where the republicans!!!!

Who can I Be?Worth My Time!I really enjoy listening to Bill Kristol’s podcast. He leads each discussion thoughtfully, connecting dots and asking questions that push the conversation forward. His intelligence and logic help bring in fantastic guests, and I always walk away having learned something new. The time I spend listening is absolutely worth it.

parchibaWasn’t he a neocon?Maybe I misremember, but I know he’s a very conservative guy, in the old meaning of the term. And I am on the other end of that spectrum. But he is a very smart man, and he is on the side of liberal democracy in its purest form, and I have developed a great respect for him. My liberal friends haven’t gotten here yet, but Bill Kristol is one of the people I pay attention to. PaulBob says check it out.

He acknowledges when and where his judgment has been wrong in the past and wants to do what’s right in the present.
