On Iowa Politics Podcast

Love Erin hosting this! Great recap of the week. I will share with others.

I really want to like this show, but these people know nothing it always seems. Every prediction they make is absolutely ridiculous. Obviously I would expect a left wing bias, but they are so blinded they can’t seem to accurately comprehend the mind of the Iowa GOP. This means they are clueless when discussing Iowa’s politics.

Knowledgeable people who discuss Iowa politics but I wish they’d just be honest that they have a liberal perspective. They essentially criticize everything the republicans do in Des Moines. That is their right but they should just make that clear so people don’t assume they are impartial

I started listening to this podcast when I knew I was moving to Iowa—have been here in the Cedar Valley since July 1 2022 and now I try to always listen for a recap on the week in Iowa politics. I’m tired of the labels of “liberal” and “conservative” which no longer have any meaning. If a listener doesn’t like a report they just call it the other label. Journalists report news. Sometimes we might not like it. This panel frames opinions in a responsible way that includes historical reference. When the Emperor is wearing no clothes, they will likely make note of it. Thank you!
