invigorating, irreverent and informative

I came across this podcast by accident: I was searching on audible for a quality investigative journalism based podcast and this series came up. I vaguely recognised Anthony Scaramucci's name so gave it a go. I'm hooked. Katty Kay and Anthony have great chemistry, speak with intelligence and knowledge on current affairs. They're clearly both well connected within the Democrat and Republican party circles. The winner for me however is their dedication to occasional irreverence. Guys, I applaud your willingness to include gossip, shade and jokes in a way that somehow elevates the material. I wish they recorded more episodes each week.

Cant get enough of a good thing. This is so good!

Something very special about this podcast. informative, sometimes combatative between Katie Kay and Smooshi. I cannot stop listening once I've started. BUT, I really loved the gentle flirting between you both, sadly that seems to have stopped. That aside, an utterly magnificent listen. Please, don't stop making such excellent podcasts.

Just Brilliant

Intelligent discussion, so knowledgeable with an amazing mix of two characters. Love the naughty school boy The Mooch and political goddess Katty Kay. Brilliant
