I really enjoyed this particular show. I listen each week, but this one really stood out. A lot of great information given in a wonderful style, a little less academic or pedantic than others. Very engaging.
I loved the part where Michael compliment you, Bob.
You, too, are an inspiring figure to me: for your intelligence, dedication, values. There is a pantheon for progressives, and you are unquestionably a member.
