Review on ITunes
I have been listening to Best of the Left for about 2-1/2 months, having discovered podcasts when I got my iPod nano in early March 2010. I definitely look forward to each episode, but the “Winning by Losing” podcast made my jaw drop. It boggles my mind that legislators want derivatives excluded from any financial reform. Obviously, their sources of information are quite skewed. I’ve listened to it about 4 times straight, and have forwarded it to some right-leaning colleagues. Keep up the good work.
