Thanks

However bad you think things currently are, they will become 1000x worse. Have an escape plan whether it’s leaving the country, suicide….. but have one. The food, the hygiene, the boredom inside the camps is unbearable. Trump and the MAGAs are not giving back power. They behave the way they do because they’re not worried about the next election. Wake up and smell the coffee. Prometheus in Greek means to know before

This podcast gives me hope. I have such gratitude for folks like Romero. Thank unfor this episode!

She is smart, engaging,interesting

High quality like magazine itself though you can detect flaws in interviews mostly in terms of blatant preconceptions. E.g. Remnick is smart & excellent but clearly comes 2 interviews w/ biases & preconceived ideas about the interviewee. And some programs fall flat such as recent interview of Kaitlin Collins(ie, mostly softball qs as if too afraid 2 ask tough qs.)

David, you forget the power of Fox News & the news outlets that spew negativity. H/W had to fight 40 years of misinformation, lies & Elon’s starlink. Changing minds after many years of misinformation is a hard task.

Great interview David & NYer. Objective perspectives like Shotkin’s help interpret the situation in historical context, which unfortunately social/modern media distorts to polarized hysteria. Thank you for the balance.

Gratitude to Remnick and Kotkin for an extremely intelligent and very informative discussion!

He’s a bit out of touch. Nickel Boys was a mess and was entirely unenjoyable. Megalopolis was only enjoyed by Brody. Remnick’s take on A Complete Unknown is silly and superficial. I hate the name Merrill Garbus.

Tim Walz and David Remnick are both staunchly opposed to universal single-payer healthcare ever happening here in the States. Walz and Remnick support privatization. These two men are absolutely not your friends, people. You know you deserve better 🤗

First time listener today. Where was this Tim Walz last summer & fall? He came across so goofy & weird during the campaign yet articulate & thoughtful today. But he lost me at, “you should not get wealthier while in elected office.” Can he google?

Very good interview, thank you. As a Democrat we need to listen to people who thinks about issues differently.

David I am not believing neither Anthony Romero or yourself speaking of what would happen if President openly defied Supreme Court order. Just look back to Donal Trumps favorite president Andrew Jackson who openly defied Supreme Court ruling. Look it up! KHF/Big Fan Albuquerque NM

You, David Remick, should teach a master class in hosting and interviewing your guests. You are consistently respectful and demonstrate engaged listening skills. (As an aside your voice is pitch perfect for podcasts.). Thank you for an excellent weekly discussion.

This podcast is a worthy extension of the great magazine, but, David Remnick, please let your guests finish their answers! I have really wanted hear their complete thought but you frequently cut them off.

Thank you for this interview. It gives me hope for the long arc of justice. Excellent questions and answers. Thank you both and New Yorker staff for your work.

Remnick was interviewing the ACLU head, Anthony Moreno, who is always a VERY compelling interviewee. But Remnick kept interrupting Moreno before he finished his thought! I dare Mr. Remnick to listen to that episode and count how many times he disrespected his guest. On legal matters the guest obviously knows much more than the host. So show some humility and LISTEN before barging in with your next brilliant question.

Horrible leftists garbage. So out of touch.

Way to ask bill about his Covid vaccine patent. Please take your journalism more seriously.

No one cares what you think dimwit cry

Antony Blinken is a war criminal.

I tried to listen to this episode but Rachel Avis’s vocal fry was too much for me to bear.

This is a one sided pod cast- letting Terrorists on the Pod and spreading lies is very off putting- will not listen to this show again-

I cried listening to Sarah McBride’s episode. She is an amazing person who has made me think about to be a better human being. The grace that she spoke about is embodied in every word that she spoke. Thank you for highlighting this extraordinary woman!!

Great podcast. Very worth your time. Professional & well edited, with no episode bloat (while most podcasts have expanded to an hour+, with -maybe- 10 minutes of real content.)

Oh joy. Another antizionist screedster humanities professor telling lies. You don’t seem to understand how or why we are sick of legacy media. He was a boring pest at UChicago, and I bet he left because while they would tolerate his anti Jewish bias he couldn’t bear teaching at school that valued free speech. Unsubscribing from both the podcast and the magazine for now. Maybe I’ll come back in a year. But I doubt it.

What a great episode, we forget how healthy it is for growth to hear both sides.

What an inspiration

This is one of the few voices of reason and truth telling. No more than ever. David Remnick (with guests) is a brilliant fair minded interviewer and this program is a wealth of inside and information. One of our favorites. Thank you.

I’m here for the crossword puzzles and never thought much of your “journalism”. Even with that low bar you’ve managed to disappoint.

Unlike some of the listeners who are upset about Gingrich on the show, I thought it’s a revealing episode of Remnick’s own world view, which is doused with neocon and neoliberal sentiment, basically establishmentarian. It also explains the much more conservative tone—except for cultural issues—of this show compared to many writings of the magazine. Hope they can have some left-leaning guest hosts occasionally for a change.

Why would you give Newt Gingrich a platform to spread his misinformation for 40 minutes?

Just deleted your podcast. Newt Gingrich, really?

As a 54 year old black man from Corona & Jackson Heights, Queens, I’m here to inform yall that the topic of conversation in the barber shop is, “How did Kamala go from curry to collard greens?” Kamala is an Indian name. It’s not African, Caribbean, or Jamaican. It’s Indian. Saying she’s black cause her pops is Jamaican is like saying Elon is black because he’s from Africa…. White Liberals out here getting played like a fool LOL

I often enjoy these conversations, but get so turned off my David Remnick’s interrupting that I end up turning it off halfway through. It’s possible to do hard interviews that push people to ask direct questions without constantly cutting them off in the middle of their thoughts, which I almost always want to hear finished.

I always enjoy these podcasts and appreciate the scholarship and careful curation of guests and topics. Top notch.

It would be irresponsibly charitable for me to call the August 20, 2024 episode disciplined journalism. A just democracy allows for the possibility for a minority position to win if the minority wants it more. So calling pro-life success anti-democratic is simply incorrect: A minority of grassroots activists won a court ruling. It did so because it sacrificed more for that ruling over a longer period of time than the majority did. Pro-choice advocates such as myself could learn much from the focused and shrewd advocacy of the pro-life movement. Instead, this episode decided to complain about how supposedly un-democratic that success is.

Mr. Remnick, I can’t think of anyone else who could ask the right questions of Nancy Pelosi as fluently and inviting as you did. Thanks to you, we all have further insight into an extremely wise mind. Amazing and effective interview. Thank you! -Bethlehem, PA

Love the content. Five stars. In comparison with other podcasts, though, the audio sounds notably more muffled. Please make it crisp: listening to Nancy Pelosi sounds like she’s bubbling underwater while David Remnick talks into a pillow.

Some shows are decent , others are boring, and way too many seem to justify Oct 7

Blatant and shameful in anti/israel sentiment. Dropped my subscription. Vile show.

A great shame the New Yorker has succumbed to a self-righteous, shrilly far-left ideology that refuses is shockingly or willfully blind to its own one-sided assumptions and biases. Used to be a fount of thought-provoking, credible, deep writing and journalism that explored a variety of ideas, and dared to wrestle with them honestly and from multiple angles. No longer. As for Mr remnick’s at-this-point rabidly one-sided anti-Israel narrative, easy enough from the luxury of New York to utterly fail to fathom the existential reality of living surrounded by Islamists with a genocidal agenda against Jews, sustained by global mobocracy through once credible institutions such as UN and “rights” groups, but New Yorker reporters have no excuse for their condescending inability or willingness to question the vicious palestianian/Arab narrative that denies Israeli and Jewish identity in its own land. If you want to understand why kids on campuses are so far gone, have a listen and read from the propaganda arm of their teachers, the progressives who lack the courage to scrutinize all with equal fairness and have lost the plot on the post-enlightenment dream that we all share a common humanity but that culture, yes, matters too.

“What say you?” Give me a break. Beyond stupid and annoying.

Tried listening to Ms. Palmeri. Oy. It’s difficult, when guests use words

AIPAC is the political equivalent of how Matt Taibbi once described Goldman Sachs: a vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity, relentlessly funneling money against anything that smells like criticism of Israel!

Interesting that at no point did you mention how much money the Israeli Lobby is paying Fedderman. That will really inspire a US Congressman to drape themselves in another countrie’s flag. What a moron.

Love the show. It’s difficult to hear when you add typing sound effects to someone speaking. It was cool ten years ago. Please stop.

Does everything have to be about politics, David? I listened to your interview with Kevin Costner and found it insufferable due to the constant verring back to trying to find out Kevins politics.

Like ever since I heard driver’s license I was inspired!… I’ve always loved singing, songwriting, and anything between! Olivia Rodrigo is who inspired me most… thats why I love this podcast!!

She compared TikTok to American social media companies without mentioning the trust difference. We should not trust the Chinese Communist Party. They have proven they will lie, cheap, copy and steal, The CCP has an executive in every big Chinese enterprise and that person is more powerful than the CEO. The Chinese are excellent at the long game. They may not be stealing data from Tik Tok now, but they will in the future. Katie, don’t you think it’s odd that TikTok is not available in China? Neither is Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, The Economist, The New York Times, and most other western media. You called Biden hypocritical for this decision but you give the Chinese a pass? We are crazy to allow TikTok, as it may well be the instrument of our demise.
