EnzoBBAVery 2025Current lineup hosts the conservative point of view delivered with an eye roll for every topic, and 2 guys that agree with 99% of whatever is said
-
Diane WeAlways Trying to Make NiceIn their efforts to be fair they minimize all the issues. How can you equate the Biden pardons with the Trump pardons? It’s ridiculous but Sarah Isgur has no problem white washing Trump’s actions. I cannot listen anymore.
-
Ec ladykillerTired of SaraI’m not sure how Sara is still a host. She spends 10 minutes railing on whataboutism, then proceeds to perform whataboutism. This is specifically regarding the gender discussion on 1/24. Then she ranted about the death of her cat (I’m sorry your pet passed away but tone-deaf much??). The concept of the show is good - I’ll give it another shot when they change up the hosts.
-
JFKPODLAThe worst version of this show.I can’t think of three people less suited for this moment. Sarah, sets up straw man after straw man and snarks all over Mo, who seems incapable of pointing out her lies or purposefully stating the stance of the left. David is fine, I guess, but a block of wood next to Sarah and Mo would seem good. This show needs a reboot badly.

MertsunamiUsed to be my favorite, now unlistenableLeft, Right, and Center used to be my favorite show. This was back when Matt Miller was the host, with Robert Scheer, Arianna Huffington, and Tony Blankley. They were smart and impassioned. I learned a lot from their heated yet informative debates. I’ve been listening all these years, but in the past few months, I’ve had to turn it off. Frustratingly, they all seem to be in agreement with MAGA Sarah a lot of the time and she puts her own convenient MAGA spin on everything. She also takes up most of the air space. Where is the impassioned left? Where is anyone fact checking the right? All three of them normalize Trump and his cabinet. Every week I start listening, but I have to turn it off usually within the first 10 minutes. At least turning it off puts me in a better mood.

MagsNOCOGreat, but … cringeThe Rightie on this program has some good points but needs to dial down the undercurrent of anger and the gotcha moments. This is not a competition nor is it a game show.
-
socalpondhockeyWho is the Center?Outside of subtly bias host, good show.
-
JTLDNBest political podcast out thereI listen because no one breaks down a trade-off like Sarah, Mo has thoughtful ways to find the bright side of modern politics and the deep questions from David. And please keep the rants and raves!
-
Powerline Worker AdviceRight is Shrill; Can’t Listen AnymoreSarah is super partisan; dump her and I will listen again
-
Tangle70Good byeSadly, I’m saying goodbye to L, R, and C. I just can no longer listen to the smarty pants comments from the right, nor feel buoyed by statements from the left. Good luck with this podcast David Green. I’m sticking with Josh and Ken.
-
Dusty BrisketMore of ThisI’m a life long NPR listener and this is one of the few shows left that actually feels respectable. Thank you for actually sharing views from across the American spectrum, it has become extremely rare to hear this type of programming on NPR
-
Julianhc1 murder and allot of attentionI think the fact that there are deaths everyday in the U.S. unjustly is a terrible issue, and killing over your view of politics is not what we want, and as spokes people it’s what you have to say. But why does this man have all this attention over the others who have passed and are passing right now, its because of his position, so it will be tied to his death and how we talk about it. Two things can also be true. the fact is brought up that people are upset with a system that isn’t working for them, that this man contributed to actually hurting our neighbors with his practices, and the fact that this poor man has also lost his life isn’t right but people are grappling with what is right and wrong when it is legal for people to grow their wealth off of others suffering. all this attention over him is precisely because of his position all the other innocent lives that are lost or missing aren’t discussed on your show in so much detail, is it? the issue with the health care system that may be also contributing to further loss is important and shouldn’t be blown over.

austynshamblesCenter Center and CenterI’ve been listening to LRC for over 9 years and today I finally decided to click the “unsubscribe button.” The show has lost all utility or interest since David Green took over and decided to only have on guests who share the same views (his) for all intents and purposes. Every other topic is just the guests all agreeing with each other. It’s mind-numbing centrism being sold as “maturity,” when in actuality David Green and his milquetoast guests are just supporting whatever the establishment position is.
-
dad with little kidsGood show but this weeks episode…Overall great show, been listening for years, but the US “Health care industrial complex” has killed too many hardworking Americans. Change is overdue, people are taking action. Politicians have proven themselves ineffective. Wake up.
-
TimpgavBorderline unlistenableIt’s just a bad show, so sanctimonious. I still listen every week, I just don’t enjoy it.
-
JDavid1967Thank You!Thank you, truly, for covering BOTH sides (and the long lost center, when one can be found) in every discussion. Get out of echo chambers. Love the podcast. 💪
-
MarclemoreThe only political show worth listening to!As someone with both left and right views, this show truly presents the best of “both” sides. The hosts appreciate nuance and have a great ability to read and explain the political climate in an engaging, interesting, and enjoyable way. Please visit Chicago!
-
New2ohioLeft, lefter and leftistAfter being a long time listener for over five years, I just can’t stand it anymore. For a show that has balance written in its name it really doesn’t feel like there is much. The post election episodes were my final straw. To be frank TYT has more center balance.
-
ANM CatDisappointedReally used to like this show, but Sara misses the mark on most of her points. She will laude Trump for performative geopolitics in one breath and then say democrats standing up for people is performative and disdainful in the next. Her contributions lack true depth. Would be nice to have an actual intellectual voice on the right.
-
Formerly a listenerCan’t do it anymoreHave listened for years, but Sarah Isgur’s ad hominem lines of argument that stem from a detached-from-reality view that the modern GOP is a functioning party have irked me for years. I was pushed to unsubscribe by her lecture about liberals’ language policing that was promoted by discussion of Nancy Mace’s disgusting, cynical crusade over transgender bathrooms in the Capitol. That the left-of-center panelists ceded the floor to her spin without any mention of Mace’s galling bullying on a national stage removed any hope that they could conduct a good faith, productive dialogue about differing perspectives. I’ll check in with the show in a few years when the show features new talent.
-
artofdanielrobbinsReasonable voicesI’ve been listening to this show for years and the current lineup of David, Sarah, and Mo is my favorite to date. While representing different sides of the political spectrum, they have an obvious rapport and respect for each other and their viewpoints.
-
RaineyyyyiPC SpeechGreat show this week, especially the discussion on PC language. Sarah, in her rant regarding Democrats shutting down discussions due to “incorrect “ language, was refreshing and oh so true. Thanks for a great show!
-
moving on-missuSlippedWhy tell us about data saying that Americans are feeling less polarized AND THEN spend a lot of time agreeing that contrary to the data and title - we are really all more polarized. Complete failure of the program to get out of their own way and explore Americans changing views. I feel lied too, I feel you don’t care about Americans, just your opinions. I may be done.
-
minimouserLove the conversationCurrently one of my must listen every Friday. I am hiding from all political pods after the election except here. I really enjoy Sarah’s point views. I don’t always agree but they made me think. I particularly enjoyed the discussion about offensive words in conversations today.
-
SportsBallArmchairExpertThis show will change your lifeThis show needs to be part of your weekly routine. It is perhaps the best reminder that we don’t have to agree, but can still be friends. I use so much from the conversations had in these shows in my daily life. It has truly saved friendships. We are all Americans and difference of opinions has always been our strength.
-
JC88OHLooking for both viewpoints?Episode after episode this podcast delivers. Though I am more left leaning, it is Sara Isgur’s conservative view point that I find myself most impressed with. Thank you for civilly debating the issues that should be front and center. I feel the thought-provoking conversation keeps me informed, but more importantly, able to be a better listener.
-
SnappalooReplace Sarah IsgurI truly appreciate hearing diverse & critical conversations but I cannot listen to Sarah Isgur. Her attitude & tone just kills the open conversational vibe. She’s simply to cynical to take her seriously. There’s got to be a better republican/conservative spokesperson. PLEASE. I can’t listen anymore. I’m bummed and I’m done with this podcast.
-
JudestriosD71,000,000I’ve loved this show for well over a decade and I especially loved Sara’s response to the sexism argument. In the VP’s lifetime, we’ve gone from implementing the Voting Rights Act to two women getting tens of millions of votes. And it’s insulting to all who fought to bring that about to still say “we should still talk about sexism” We will never live in a perfect world where those isms don’t exist. So why let them dog every attempt to beat them. They like a team in a game will score points but we can beat them and that’s what Sarah so astutely meant.
-
slipztreamLeft, MAGA & CenterI’ll return to this show once it has a respectable opinion from the right again. Sarah is showing her true MAGA colors now that wanna be Hitler is headlining the show.
-
Linkin SteffA woman did winUnder any other democratic system of voting, Hillary is president in 2016. She won the popular vote by some millions. It’s U.S. particularities of its federal / Electoral College system that kept her from the presidency, not sexism.
-
KatB730Delusional.This lady literally said “The left has no lessons to learn. Just don’t have a bad economy.” Is she serious?!? Trump took EVERYTHING. House, senate, POPULAR VOTE and presidency. Great commentary. “It was the economy. That’s all.” This is why Dems will keep losing. KEEP YOUR HEADS IN THE SAND and put another establishment hack up next time around and then come back and say that.
-
with all due respectThanks for challenging us the listeners!Love the show! All 3 of you are a model of how people with different views can still enjoy one another’s company. I’m sure all the negativity in the comments come from people who can’t abide their weird uncle at Thanksgiving. Keep up the good work.
-
KaydubdubSanctimoniousMoved to LA in 2002. Have heard much more balanced versions of LRC panels. Sarah Isgur is sanctimonious and unwilling to let others speak uninterrupted. Unfollowed. Not what it used to be.
-
Vester+70Just meh anymore.I miss the old left, right & center before NPR took over. Also they don’t seem to be adjusting to the new right very well. Isgur is an old guard Republican and should be replaced with a new conservative voice.
-
MoaskerBoth sides are bad?Fake both sides are bad instead of actually being centrist!
-
Boilingrug“The hate”It’s simpler than that…I blame Lee Atwater & Newt Gingrich for starting the U.S. sliding into American’s hate for other Americans with different viewpoints.
-
Ethan Allen Hawleysarah’s resumethis will be a weird blip on sarah isgur’s resume when she becomes a reporter at fox when it’s the only news source left under trump’s dictatorship.
-
JS from NYCno center herecome in Moe! youre losing your credibility. no one is enthusiastic about harris, they are very enthusiastic though that she is younger than Biden and esp that she is not Trump.
-
Classic3One request…Love the podcast but after weeks and weeks, could someone please ask Mo to spit out the gum before recording?? This is an audio medium!
-
Get a new center!Not balanced - get a new center!David Greene should not be considered CENTER and is so easily offended!
-
LelandMosbyeLeft, Far Left & Center-RightI love the premise of the title. I truly wish the show was more balanced. I like getting perspectives from all sides. More balance. Sarah does a good job seeing things holistically. It helps balance out the left positions.
-
Hasile65SARAThe title of this review explains the one star rating 🙄 She gives the impression that she doesn’t want to ruin her chances of possibly having a position (again) with the Trump administration if he were to win the election There are few choices in podcasts to hear all sides I am trying to hang in there to at least get through the election Not sure I’m going to make it if she can’t tone it down a bit. We are your listeners. Not your children who you need to school so condescendingly
-
TrolleyDodger88Tangle!Woot woot. Tangle subscriber represent!
-
Katiet57Love the show ….exceptI have listened to so many episodes before writing this review. I will continue to listen but I wish Sarah Isgur would be replaced. I appreciate her perspective, but her delivery is condescending to her co-hosts. She passive-aggressively, “jokingly” criticizes her co-hosts which is childish. She is known to be a hack and is…wait for it….shrill(and no…I don’t say this because she is a woman.) There has to be a better conservative out there willing to be on this generally awesome, informative show.
-
EJames9029Just sillyPlease bring Nomiki Konst back as often as possible. Listening to Sarah repeatedly embarrass her into a sputtering mess was just delightful. FYI: the Helene disaster was a pretty major story this show completely ignored. Not surprising, hard to see the flyover deplorables from your self contained opinion bubbles. The far left extremist host that pretends to be the center is going to ultimately kill this show. Here’s an idea: Trump has support from some 47% of the country. Maybe ONCE a quarter have someone who actually supports him, instead of your endless parade of Never Trump hacks?
-
j.in.akVery Helpful!I like this show a lot, it’s currently my favorite show for political commentary. I’m a competitive debater, and I use these conversations, usually Sara’s parts, to expand my perspective and make arguments I wouldn’t think of otherwise. It’s even encouraged me to try to talk to conservatives in my life to try to understand why they believe the things they do. I loved the recent conservative episode, and now I’d love to hear a part two between Sara and conservatives who like Trump.
-
Cygnusx-12Long time listener- minor gripesI’ve been listening since the 90s and have loved the show so much over the years. I very much like the current team but…. And mind you I’m left center ish…. It kinda irks me that Sarah lately paints the two parties as having the same policy proposals while suggesting that Kamala is somehow disingenuous on this front while never acknowledging Donald’s less than democratic tendencies. It feels like she is reducing the fundamental differences between the parties to something that fits into a thin veneer with Kamala taking the blame for stealing the lacquer. (Woodworking reference there. Sorry.) I guess I understand that is her role as “Right” and that if the “Right” on NPR was a “Left Plant” would be bad (I’ve read the reviews saying as much)…. But still. A little bit of acknowledgment of the patently concerning behaviors involving the breaches of the rule of law and truthfulness would build some credibility with the leftish folks listening. The Never Criticize Trump approach comes off as fake “for the podcast” or a deeply concerning fixed mindset - especially, like in this most recent lovely episode with all conservative voices, they were all sounding more rational and open minded than the host.
-
TimothraGreat episode!Sarah, David, and Jonah provide a refreshing reminder of what conservative commentary can be when you take a few steps back from the Overton window sill.
-
CrunkpantsI triedI wanted to give it a chance, listened faithfully for a year as a conservative in good faith, knowing the show skewed heavily left….but this week with Sarah hosting a self-hating “conservative” caucus, I just can’t do it anymore because there is no attempt to realistically represent the current conservative viewpoint without making them the weird, fringe boogey-man. Done.
-
W. JarvisMost recent conservative ep amazingLoved the most recent all conservative panel. I think you should do more of those on occasion with different perspectives on “one side”.
