For President/ Vice President!!! What a precious ending this podcast was !

Great host. Stay strong and Keep up the good work.

Omg. I want the Senior Senator from NJ to run for President so much. Dude from the Ironbound has the chops, the ideas, the compassion. Best episode.

You are all disgraceful

Love the guys and gals of the Bulwark pod network.

I have listened to many political news podcasts and I like the sober insights with some humor. The guests are outstanding. But I want to give special kudos to whoever who chooses the song at the end. It is always fitting. Sometimes it makes me smile. Sometimes it makes me tear up. Sometimes it makes me laugh out loud on the connection to the episode.

Always great conversations, balanced and thoughtful, which as an ex-Christian/conservative never-republican democrat I always learn a lot from. I would love if the song at the end of each episode was listed in the show notes :)

Why Christianity? Or Judaism or Islam or…any of the large religious sects? Why not a community of people sharing life’s journeys and looking for the good in each other like Ethical Humanism? Agnostics, atheists and theists alike all welcome there.

Great show

Makes a very strong summary of Trump corruption and how it works and concludes very strongly and then Tim says oh maybe I don’t know let’s talk about something funny

Yes to corruption as unifying message because now his corruption affects all of us- cutting important programs for his gain- Social Security etc. just FOCUS relentlessly!!

I generally enjoy the podcast even as a much more liberal person, but I had to stop listening to the Michael Steele episode. Too many cringe declarative statements that aren’t even logical or considered-Pete Hegseth is “even worse” than Gaetz ? The Magna Carta is your model ? The Magna Carta was historically NOT actually concerned with the “everyday man”; it argued for the rights of all free men, which at the time it was written included primarily everyone BUT the “everyday man”.

Always love listening to Tim.

Tim is so refreshing, authentic and insightful. If you love to The Bulwark, try “I’ve Had It” podcast too.

What about solutions, what we can do, how to we impeach this cabinet! We all know it’s horrific!

I might disagree with Tim on a few items but a fan of all things bulwark and especially so him. His authenticity is a big part of that

Have seen Tim on Deadline Whitehouse with Nicole Wallace and always enjoy his takes. Now I am a hardcore Bulwark fan. Can’t recommend this podcast enough. Give it a listen- Tim Miller, Sam Stein, Sarah Longwell and JVL are my favorites.

Tim Miller is peaking at exactly the right time. Sail on Brother! Keep your stride.

“Why should we want power?” O’Brien asks Winston. “You are ruling over us for our own good” is Winston’s answer. O’Brien pulls the lever on the torture machine. “That was stupid, Winston, stupid!” he says. “You should know better than to say a thing like that.” He will tell him the correct answer, O’Brien says. “It is this. The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power … We are different from all the oligarchies of the past, in that we know what we are doing … We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power.” Orwell 1984

Rather than stress the high quality of this podcast’s analysis I propose an awful scenario: they won’t try to bring people back because that would reveal they’re no longer alive. Better to own being a pack of pricks than accomplices after the fact.

This group of talking heads is a group that has never been on the winning side. They are - much like the Republican talking heads - here for the grift. When both the democrats -see Chris Whipple book- amd the Trump kingdom are lying about pretty much all things… reference the title above. Waste of my time. And yours.

…for playing ‘Sun City’

Great interview with David Frum. I think the reason Trump is just an agitator is his desperate neediness for constant attention (and his personal worship of wealth). He could never recognize or appreciate the cooperative intricacy of the global (worldwide) supply chain because it means the world is made up of many contributors and many heroes, and he doesn’t want anyone but himself to be counted (unless all of those others express worship of him). His consummate need and greed to be the only victor has long made it clear he should never be the leader of any FREE country, certainly not ours. Our founders imagined US leaders of extra large courage, intelligence, patience, and morality and he doesn’t qualify.

Terrible take on Trump voters Were they not alive during the pandemic? For starters. No sympathy for twice stupid. I’ll skip this show

Wow, I loved listening to Catherine Rampell with Tim. She is a joy to listen to and I hope we get to hear from her regularly. Obviously to be a listener means that I also adore Tim and his pearls of wisdom (and pearls of necklace.) Not to mention that Sam Stein is quick witted, thoughtful and eloquently conveys intelligent views. Thank you guys!

Condescending comments do not bridge divides. I look forward and listen to this podcast daily. But, Tim’s condescending comments about people who enjoy and participate in playing board games and strategy games really bothered me. Talk about elitist and condescending,Tim, please… you and your podcast are usually much better than those comments.

These people were sold to El Salvador for $600,000,000 with a no return policy.

Some of Tim Miller’s hot takes have no grounding in reality. No Democratic politicians are speaking out? (Warren, Bernie, Murphy, AOC, etc?) Saying the media wrongly shamed Armie Hammer? Please read the many accounts from women before you casually dismiss their claims. Seems the goal is to be provocative which I guess is the world we live in but does it have to be?

I love all of the podcasters and admire their work, values and courage so much. However Sam Stein comes across as a hack and a dilettante. He needs to learn more about the topics and speak with more humility and curiosity. This is not a late-night show on the couch. Sam phones it in and he needs to work harder. Whenever he is in an episode I can’t even listen to it.

You need to keep making the connection that Trump wants to cut taxes for the rich and to pay for that he’s gonna say that he saved money from DOGE and tariffs which can pay for the tax cuts. Don’t lose sight of his poor intention.

It’s really annoying when the host(s) insist on letting their anti-Democrat vibe seep into the discussion at any chance possible. Before Miller and Stein could give an ounce of credit for Cory Booker’s record-breaking speech (you try standing and speaking for 24 hours), they first of course had to make pee jokes. Ugh. Enough of the “bro” lower common denominator pettiness.

Interesting…….. Apple seems to be pushing these episodes out late………… time to trade in my iPhone. Hey Tim Apple, release my podcasts.

I feel like I get good honest information listening to Sara and Tim and all the others. I always hated politics, but they’ve got me interested

Best podcast on Apple right now. Really enjoy the Bulwork content. Would like to seem them to a quick daily News style show in the future.

I love everything about The Bulwark. It’s the music that I love the most. You have excellent taste.

A Classified Signal came to one named Stefanik: “We’ve sent the two Vances on a mission Greenlandic! Their main roles way up there are near-messianic: To change the big subject from SignalGate-tanic, Where pressure to fire Hegseth is almost volcanic. So Elise, you must Listen — because we’re now in Panic . . . In the House you have been a most faithful mechanic, Now you’ll save Our SecDef from the forces Satanic!”

is dumb

I am a regular listener now, I dig your post-repub (?) left leaning contrarian perspective even if I'm a Bernie lefty contrarian. I also need your outrage over people getting kidnapped off the street with no notice or due process and your exhausted frustration is an island from the absurdism of capitulation. Amanda Carpenter was a little too regime apologist for my taste, but whatever, all ports in a storm. And yes from an ep earlier this week-I feel guilty and confused about anything good happening at the same time as this nightmare we're living too.

Greenlanders to the US: Make America Go Away

There are people protesting! I think it would be helpful to highlight this. You very jadedly mentioned the protests on April 5th, but I know a ton of people who are planning to do this. If mass mobilization is what you want then please please help encourage it!

But why were the April 5 hands off protests barely mentioned as an afterthought with Lovett? All the talk about how we need to be in streets but little support for those who are.

I tune in daily for up to date honest info on current politics. It’s nice to have some normal coverage that isn’t full of lies. Thanks guys for the good work you do!

I’m bummed that I missed the emo cast after the election that you had with Jon! I had to go back and listen to it after hearing you reference the crying today. I wish I had tuned in to your show for some company cos I really needed to commiserate with others who were devastated as well. You both expressed my feelings exactly. I was also mourning my ideals of what I thought America and American’s (family and friend’s included) stood for, and I am shocked by the normalization and acceptance of the worst parts of humanity. I appreciate the honesty and vulnerability both Tim and Jon shared with us viewers then and now, and I’ll be looking for their commentary FIRST from here on out. Thank you for stopping the news for a bit just to feel and shake off the deep sadness and disgust of this moment we find ourselves in. I’d like to hear these two in conversation of the heart more often, please. We need it more than ever.

Thank you Bulwark team for keeping us updated on all of the current political news. You’re all a really great combination of intelligent and funny. You have quickly risen in the ranks to become my favorite podcast!

Loved the interviews in the Wes Moore and Michael Lewis podcasts. The perspectives of people with such different life experiences are the strength of democracy. Tim Miller is extending public horizons and showing us where to look for hope in these difficult times. You do good work.

I enjoy listening to this podcast to get the rest of the news critical to understand today’s crazy Trump regime

Even though Tim gives shade to his 60+ female followers (lol), I’m still a giant fan girl!!! With his humility, temperament, snarky humor, etc., it brings a welcomed respite to my day, all while hearing about the twisted state of the world.

This podcast is a great mix of informative journalism, analysis, and some nice breaks of levity. When you listen to a lot of political podcast it’s nice to be able to smile every now and then. Keep up the great work!

I love your Podcast and the guests you interview, but I don’t like the number of ads that appear on each show. Also, I don’t like how they break unannounced into your discussions. It totally disrupts the flow of the conversation.

I think it’s time to play with same rule with these guys. Put out everything and show them what kind of loser they are. Everyone complains about them but turn around and capitulate
