I'm not familiar with Christina Bellantoni, but Barbara Lee is a great guest!

But I am not in the habit of canceling those i disagree with.

I watch and find the discussions with guests moderately informative and usually somewhat entertaining.

And he's has some particularly good New Rules, lately. And I look for the humor, too - he is a comedian, after all.

I'd love to see him perform live, but he doesn't seem to come to my part of the country (New York), I guess he prefers better weather, LOL. But I am planning to see Al Franken in November when he comes to the Northeast on his national tour! He should be terrific!

He is also very funny

I loved his radio show before he became a Senator too.

I've been regularly posting his podcasts, and I've also included the link to his live appearance schedule - when it finally dawned on me to take a look, and he's appearing in Albany, just an hour south of where I am now. He really is appearing across the country!

And it's amazing that these times have become so crazy that those we used to disagree with, Steve Schmidt, Bill Kristol, George Will, are now on "our side" (more or less).
