Live in Asia, have voted since the 80s and am getting increasingly worried about how things are turning out. Convinced that the arc of history does not bend towards justice.

He lost me when he interviewed Chomsky. He really did sound like a pretentious windbag, very David Brooks-adjacent. Shame. I used to listen to him quite regularly before he went to NYT.

Happy Christmas Tony, and Reg, and the Cat, and the sound guy. You've given me immense happiness during a grim year. Honestly, the show has reached an absolute peak, as consistently funny as anything you've ever produced during your storied career. All the best for 2026.

Lovely photo. I've always wanted to see a Puffin. They were an imprint for children's books when I was learning (and loving) to read. Thanks Sandy. You do good.

The NYT headline was the most anodyne version that could possibly have been written. It was pretty shocking.

I very much regret being such a cheerleader for Dawkins and Hitchens at that time. Both had their merits in other areas, but they were fanatics, which is always dangerous.

That sounds bloody awful. More people need to spill the beans on this drongo psycho. But I realise how much of a target it paints on people's backs.

I would pay to read an extended magazine article about this. Elon Musk seems to be a very boring individual afflicted by an interesting psychopathy.

Listened to this on my morning run. The street dogs were alarmed by me groaning out loud as that effing Nazi led tje extremely weird USA chant. Glad to hear that Peter did better on his SATs than this self-aggrandizing halfwit. God help us.

I'm liking the return to salty 80s journo-speak. Calling a spade a fuckin' shovel, nice one Bronny.

The story that really took my breath away -- and for hours I did not believe it until I saw it confirmed from multiple credible sources -- was that describing the utterly crass placards placed under the photos of Presidents in the White House. An abomination.

Just posted a review elsewhere. Sizzletown has entered its golden Goon age, starting with the ep where Reg tapped anti-woke energy by hooking himself up to a colander. Today's ep with Reg and crew ganging up on other callers and the Cat mocking a pompous rival off air were just too funny. Bravo.
