This ignores that these segments are almost always tailored for the show, the guest and most importantly the audience.
You take that back. Kristen Schaal is cute as a button and also my vampire step-mommy (Natasia Demetriou is my real vampire mommy).
It was a segment about Sinclair gobbling up local news stations all over the country and using those stations to disseminate their own political agenda.
John Oliver does a great job delivering a comical (yet truthful) look on serious problems. His episode on gerrymandering was amazing “have a nice swim in the pool”.
His show has died off a bit, but he did a great job bridging between when Jon Stewart left TDS to now when Stewart’s current show (which is not even as good as his podcast).
While we are on the topic of crazy people and mediums, Joe Rogan has some wild shows that I will often turn off 20 mins in (which is really only 5 mins into the show since the first 15 mins are commercials), but he has some guests on that are great, and incredibly thought provoking. Sadly folks can’t look past the dewormer (and his other hot button topics) to actually listen to his shows. He had an interview with a sleep expert, and another with an infectious disease expert that were both amazingly insightful.
Pod Save America was a great one for a while until they realized the hand that they were biting (Biden) was going to be buttering their bread, so I switched over to Politics War Room w/James Carville (because the ragin Cajun is still bright as a light).
