Miss Claire
This was my favorite podcast. Always listened to it first. I realize that Claire was the main reason because I almost don’t listen to it now.

Wish I didn’t have to give this podcast one star
This podcast is AWFUL! The hosts are foul, classless and can only think inside the liberal box. If you have any moral code at all, these three will trash you like none other. The woman has the worst, most fake laugh I’ve ever heard and all she says is “right, right” or “yeah, yeah”. Idiots.

Like podcast but latest one was very cold
I’ve beeping listening to this podcast for the past few months. It’s is good. The latest one was very political and low on reporting what happened. The political angle was how the republicans will react to the second impeachment and if trump will be removed from office. No one on the podcast mentioned that five people died during the riot of the capitol building and that behavior was criminal. I completely understand the political calculations on either side but the guests should acknowledge the reality of what happened in conjunction with giving on opinion on what happens next.

Where is Clair
This was one of my favorite politics podcasts until Claire Malone was fired. The replacements all seem to have the same opinion and the 538 podcast is not nearly as dynamic as it was when Claire was on the show.

We want Clare :(
I’ve been a listener for about two years and have to say that I no longer look forward to the weekly episodes without Clare. She was so important to the flow and personality of the show. She had great insight and spoke in a very relatable way, plus she is just funny and a was an important presence on the show as a sort of playful foil to Nate. I find Perry to be unbearably boring (sorry Perry). I think he’s very smart, but his contributions to the pod are a bit dry and lack a certain conversational tone. I still listen but after following the lead up to the presidential election like a hawk, I’m left a little miffed at the model and Nate’s defense of it too. Galen does a great job hosting, him and the single topic episodes he’s been doing have kept me listening.

Noticeable drop in quality after Clare was let go.
I used to never miss an episode. The podcast had a great flow and feel to it. I thought it’d be okay after Clare was let go but I just don’t care if I miss an episode now. It’s lost the personality and I can’t force myself to listen anymore.

Bring back Clare
That’s it. That’s the review. Went from a weak 5-star to a solid 2-star podcast. Bad choice, ABC News!

Not listening now Clare has gone
But of course a funny, smart woman has been let go. Massive eye roll. I can’t believe you have got rid of Clare. She was the best thing about the show. Not bothering to stay subscribed.

Claire left - now just super “woke”
They got rid of Claire and now just invite overly woke people to commentate on how horrible “white folk” are. Was good, now boringly parroting extreme points of view. Not informative anymore. Too bad. Used to be the best politics podcast available.

I agree - bring Claire back
She was the most insightful of the crew. She had a great perspective that is now sorely lacking.

Bye
The only thing keeping me listening was Clare’s pushback on the inane perspectives peddled by the other hosts. Literally can’t imagine putting on an episode anymore.
