There should be a Criticism section. This article appears to be the product of advocates and enthusiasts. I know that there are people who have a negative attitude towards this show because I am one. I hope somebody will come forward to contribute such a section. Unfortunately, I avoid the show at all costs and so have only limited knowledge. What I would have to say would be limited to my view that it is a show produced by and for people who have essentially no sense of humor, low intelligence, a love for political and social conformity and for crude antics. I hope somebody can flesh out the negative aspects. ---[[User:Dagme|Dagme]] ([[User talk:Dagme|talk]]) 02:01, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
 
:I write and publish comedy books. I studied - cum laude - Economics with a concentration in Finance at the Wharton School of Business and Systems Engineering at the University of Penbsylvania. I love economics and politics - fact and science based - and crude antics.I consider myself an extraordinarily skeptical - a pyrrhonistic - iconoclastic, maverick because I have absolutely insourmountable evidence of: ubiquitous, systemic, legalized (international corporations and organizations bribe and threaten judges - and lawmakers with campaign funding - and hire lobbyists who write our laws), worse than mafioso-like, nepotistic, cronyistic, kleptocratic, plutocratic, particratic/uniparty, oligarchic corruption.
:(I am for the best safety, health and education for everyone. I am for civic education and anonymous, numbered - coroborating digital internet and paper ballot - ordinal voting on primary-free and party-free ballots ...on all public legislation and issues at all levels of governance - local, state, regional, federal. Triple the size of the supreme court and the senate ASAP. Ban lobbying. Reverse Citizens United. Bring back publicly supported, "equal time, balanced, fair" investigative reporting to help bolster and maintain freedom of the press. All candidates and elected officials who want to serve the public good must maintain perfectly transparent net worths under $1m - monitored and maintained in public trusts - and donate all increases in net worth to their elected office's tax coffer. Truth, justice, impartiality, transparency, and above all, freedoms that do absolutely no demonstrable harm...FREEDOM!).
:This "live"/edited radio show/podcast is a comedic(!!), current events "GAME SHOW" whose writers, cast and panelists lean towards facts (left) and ridicules and parodies hypocracy, falacies, mis-information, dis-information, propaganda,fiction, fantasy, cults, sociopaths, etc. [[Special:Contributions/69.112.142.49|69.112.142.49]] ([[User talk:69.112.142.49|talk]]) 15:19, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
