I periodically tune in to his podcast: Stay Tuned with Preet.
The new episode that dropped this morning is with Rahm Emanuel. Worse, it is titled, "Could Rahm Emanuel Be Our Next President?"
The answer to that question is "No, F'n way!!!!"
Will not be listening to this episode, Preet.

(25,908 posts)if Preet holds him to account, calls him out on his lies and presses him for answers on past misdeeds.
Otherwise, it's exposing the audience to someone spewing a bunch of malarkey. The guy is probably capable of making himself sound like a reasonable candidate. It doesn't mean he truly is. For those who are unfamiliar and don't do their own research, they'll get hoodwinked.
