    The Death Of Journalism Episode One Hundred Forty Seven: The Price Of Selling Out

    The Death Of Journalism Episode One Hundred Forty Seven: The Price Of Selling Out

    We'd like to apologize for the numerous sound quality blips in this episode. We are working to isolate and fix the issue.

Smith on the stupidity of the Trump trial in NYC, Zigs got the latest polls and a possible shift in the RFKJ impact, the other Kennedys weigh in on RFKJ, the new Title IX protections for trans people, what Ron DeSantis would have done about the Title IX changes and we are all paying the price for the DJT sellouts, another ridiculous Philadelphia area school story, the NPR insanity and the insane NPR CEO, Rogan, Carlson and 7 World Trade, the state of gambling in sports and Taylor Swift and the bullying songs on her new album.

    The Death Of Journalism Episode One Hundred Forty Three: Juwanna Mann

    Zig's fed up with the media's idiotic eclipse coverage, America was captivated by the Women's NCAA Final Four and so was John - from calls you shouldn't make on the court to calls you shouldn't make during a press conference - this event inspired some unique Zig takes. Kamala gives a masterclass in women's bracketology, some big democrat names are sharing the reality on the ground in the election, Senator Blumenthal suggests a liberal justic should retire, the price of oil and the price of a golf venue expose potential conflict of interest for team Trump and the NY Times is on it and conservative hosts pretend they weren't part of the 'soft on Trump' spirit during the primarys.

Love Zig. He showed go solo

Zig stays on task with all of his content. If his partner could do the same this pod would be great.

Hogwash

I could only handle one episode of this. Just a bunch of yelling about nothing. Jopa and Penn State are trash.

1 episode in...

First 20 minutes of introduction almost made me quit. Pontificating about the role of journalism, ethics, et cetera are particularly off-putting in today's world.

I'm now an hour in and the only revelation is that McCreary got the date wrong for an event 10 years early.

Not great so far. Woman is excruciating.
