    Great podcast
    Gives listeners the goods when it comes to fact versus fiction in major news stories that are misrepresented or otherwise disingenuously covered by the larger media. A definite left slant is present, but, well, the left tends to be straighter shooters when it comes to large policy proscriptions don't they?
