I didn’t know Ben Carson could say insightful stuff!

I’ve always been on the liberal/ Democrat side of things and have an innate, visceral dislike for Ben Carson. My stomach turned when he ran for president in 2016 while being unqualified for the job. It was also appalling when he was appointed as US Secretary of Housing and Urban Development by the orange monster when he has no training for this role. I guess it was that mob-style “loyalty” stuff. It was surreal watching so many people who have no related training/ qualifications in these high offices of government. What a nightmare that was, not meritocratic at all.

But I really do enjoy this podcast. I liked the interview with Brigitte Gabriel, Alan Dershowitz, and others. I have found the conversations to be, overall, balanced and intelligent. Nice job, everyone who works on this!
