Elie is amazing and one of my favorites!

What a great discussion. As far as I’m concerned you both need a regular platform on MSM and to get paid. 💰💰💰Your commentary and take on topics are far more interesting and real to regular people. Scott Jennings doesn’t know his ass from a hole in the ground. 🤮 Thanks WJ and Elie! Love you both so much ❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Omg, I just stumbled across this podcast today, saw Elie & watched. Then halfway through I re-checked the title & saw that you, the host, were a person I’d seen on MSNBC way back, & was SO impressed I put your name in my notes app under authors to look for. Happy I found this.

I don't even know these other people they mention. But I'm glad to have gotten to know Wajahat Ali, & of course, how could I not know Elie Mystal?

James you are living your life right ❤️😎👏🏼 Good on ya for not having to deal with those asshats. For fun though, if interested, look up Elie Mystal owning Scott Jennings on CNN. Priceless 🥰

I really enjoyed watching that conversation. A couple of great guys there!

So now I know why most of the political reporters & pundits I admire the most are overwhelmingly POC, even though there aren't that many of you in the business.

You two deserve MANY garlands of flowers!

It's really important that white people understand HOW rump is a serious threat to non-white people. Like the U.S. bombs falling on the Palestinian and Lebanese People . . .

Thank you for another interesting convo.

Excellent work. Your sincerity eases the free floating anxieties of the season leaving us more capable of meeting the moment

Average White Boys... "if you can string some words together in a coherent sentence without dropping an N-bomb <em>on air</em>" well, you'll do son, you'll do just fine...

Nice to see someone else say this out loud. I walk among them & they make me tired

I questioned Scott Jennings from the get-go. He even smirks like Trump now.
