Rachel Maddow | SmartLess

[@nancytomon5375]

Love Rachel! ❤️❤️ Thanks for having her on.

[@carolinerado5007]

Such a great show! It was so wonderful getting to hear Rachel dumbing it all down for you guys! I knew it was hard for her but she's so smart, she managed it. ❤

[@xhighone]

please do another HBO on-the-road special with 5-6 episodes like last time. watching you guys BTS still ripping into each other was some of the best streaming i've experienced in a long time. the emotional bits were unexpected, and whoever you had editing/producing that show was on point. just wonderful stuff.

[@wjadam024]

Rachel Maddow! So much stuff going on and still has time to be relaxed and hilarious. Such a lovely person!

[@CatandBodhi-ArtSpiritAdventure]

Thanks for having Rachel on ❤

[@Scottus5]

around the 11 minute mark, when they're all riffing on Jason and Sean never having read a book and asking to explain what a book is, Rachel says, "You know how you staple things? Well shift the staple to the long end of the page." Then a few minute later she says, "Its like Cue Cards you can hold." This had me rolling on the floor laughing and is so funny

[@carolyndukeanderson8880]

She’s a very good teacher!! No matter what the age or mental capacity!!

[@markinpdx7345]

Bwah ha ha.. “Scotty has a CPAP”…. Sean is me in every sports conversation 😂 2:47

[@Libbyerality]

Thanks Jason, Sean, Will and Rachel.🙂

[@mypeakhealth7096]

These guys are the best. I really enjoyed how they skirted the political issues without coming across as overly partisan. Also, I want to live next door to Rachel.

[@tabithaturenchalk5158]

Rachel!! ♥️♥️♥️

[@michalolson4014]

We all need more of her. Not afraid to tell the truth.

[@swilli2389]

Oh the irony of this episode. Hypocrisy to go around….😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Great show!!!!!!😂❤😅

Sean gets mistaken for Rachel all the time...I'm dying over here!

[@lynnyhen]

Rachel is not only brilliant, she is a good human.

[@rtorosyan]

"the way we solve problems in this country is through democratic process" (40:45)

[@rtorosyan]

"If you vote for a conservative President, part of what you are voting for is, if there is a vacancy on the Supreme Court, while that president is in office, that President will appoint a conservative to the court. Or conversely with a liberal. If you are voting for a liberal president, it is with the understanding that if there's a vacancy, there'll be a liberal appointee. When that system gets broken, you are separating outcomes from the vote, and you are making people feel like the vote doesn't matter. And in fact you are making it so their vote doesn't matter, which means our democracy is getting weaker. Whoever wins or loses any particular fight, the connection between people's desire and the outcomes they get from their government should always always be the lode star, because that's the thing that's under assault from people who want authoritarianism, and rule by force, instead of rule by vote."

Great podcast!

[@arthurjones9580]

Love your show- very entertaining! Don't agree at all with your political philosophies, but that's ok! Thanks for the awesome guests and your brilliant humor!!!!

[@HopeWins777]

It's cue cards YOU can hold. Love-Love 🤣🤣🤣 One of my tippy-top fav humans on Earth. And a MAJOR influence in my decision to abandon my lifelong affiliation with the GOP in 2017, despite the Fox propaganda on Dems and having to politically leave my church friends and family. Life-changing. Deeply grateful. ❤❤❤

[@ChadBlanchard23]

Great job, guys!

[@lapofluke]

Totally wondered why Will wasn’t in the commercial which as a sport fan I have seen many many times but I love it!

[@drumcircler]

Finally! A brain on this podcast! Go Rachel!

[@joelenehoselton3876]

I love this podcast, LOVE, but when they say, “without getting political….” And have Biden, Harris and Psaki on…political without “getting political.”

[@ChokeOnHamburder]

Yeah, well... there's a real shortage of right wing types that would be interesting or fun right now. I don't think that's political. That's just how it is. I love your cat!

[@IllAskTheQuestionspodcast]

Cool show! We can't say we're big Racheal Maddow fans here at IATQ, but we want to be! She's totally welcome on our show! I hope she likes cherry coke...Thanks for letting us chill w you guys! Keep up the great work!

[@MistressOnyaCox]

I want to be Rachel Maddow when I grow up 🎉😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤

Just finished Prequel. Rachel is awesome!

AWESOME GUEST!!

[@KennethTucker-g9v]

Best podcast ever

[@coastuncle1965]

I don't agree with her on much,but I'm watching...another great get on the guests.

The phone commercial proves you all should be in a series together as cousins or brothers oor coowooorkersss ehhh no okay it was a good talk .. ill go .. this door.. oh no the window and the tree .. gotcha .... also Thanks for all you do rachel maddow !

[@Smartbeautifulawesome]

I’m actually really good at Uber Eats deliveries. I already know they’re going to have a breakdown a lot of these guys. I knew things were going to go south once they got that male CEO at PathPoint. You know how it is…right it’s unfair

[@iamjarrettdean9358]

Do sane, intelligent, fair, practical people have ANY idea how great this country could be with Rachel and Jon Stewart as Prez and VP? Either one in either role. Wouldn't matter. Would be stellar compared to the clown 🤡 shows we've seen in the last 50 yrs or more

[@tabithaturenchalk5158]

Soo Taika Waititi or Rhys Darby Soon? 😋😁💜

[@MotoNomad350]

Not to get too pedantic, but the whole discussion by self-admitted “jailhouse lawyers” around the 45:00 mark demonstrates the danger of amateur legal advice. The axiom “ignorance of the law is not a defense” is not universally true. In the 1989 “Cheek” decision, the US Supreme Court held that a good-faith subjective misunderstanding of the law is a valid defense to charges of income tax fraud because that crime required the violation to be “willful.” This would be one of those “exceptions that proves the rule” situations. I will now show myself out….

I really love hearing Rachel talk. I miss having her on every night. I'm with J, she used to put me to bed every night. Not only is super intelligent, she's clever.

[@captainkris6888]

Keep the politics out of it boys. People listen to you guys (on both sides) to escape all that.

[@patricenz]

I wish guests could speak more 😊

[@NickelCityPixels]

"In an oddly overlooked ruling, an Obama-appointed federal judge, Cynthia Bashant, dismissed the lawsuit on the ground that even Maddow's own audience understands that her show consists of exaggeration, hyperbole, and pure opinion, and therefore would not assume that such outlandish accusations are factually true even when she uses the language of certainty and truth when presenting them (“literally is paid Russian propaganda")." The problem is that a lack of understanding is what make Rachel Maddow viewers, Rachel Maddow viewers.

[@Libbyerality]

Judge Milan Smith, (appointed by Republican George Bush Sr.), also dismissed the case.

[@NickelCityPixels]

@@Libbyerality George Bush Sr.? That paragon of virtue? You don't say. Lol, I think you missed the point.

[@Libbyerality]

There were an equal amount of Republican and Democrat judges deciding the case. Just pointing that out. 🙂@@NickelCityPixels

[@oafee1053]

What Bashant actually said rather the OAN interpretation of it... 'Judge Cynthia Bashant ruled in May 2020 that anyone who watches Maddow’s show “would follow the facts of the Daily Beast article; that OAN and Sputnik share a reporter and both pay this reporter to write articles.” “Anything beyond this is Maddow’s opinion or her exaggeration of the facts,” the judge wrote at the time. “Maddow had inserted her own colorful commentary into and throughout the segment, laughing, expressing her dismay (i.e., saying ‘I mean, what?’) and calling the segment a ‘sparkly story’ and one we must ‘take in stride,’ ” Bashant added. Amazing what a bit of spin bias can add to the facts. You're welcome.

[@Libbyerality]

Thanks.🙂@@oafee1053

[@MyFavouriteStation]

QUEEEEEN!!!!

[@Lucid.Insights]

I heard Ms. Maddow say "Why would anyone vote for someone with a felony conviction?" As someone with a felony conviction, I found it funny how "progressive" she really is. No thought of context or anything. Just slap a label on someone and move on. Sounds familiar. Also, no one called her out on this. Disappointed all around, don't know how the rest of the interview went, I lost interest.

[@Libbyerality]

She didn't say that. She was quoting was prosecutors said re: Agnew.

[@nancylk2946]

Wow! Do you have it wrong! Maddow was quoting another person who said: "why would..." please go to 22:00 in the podcast where this misheard comment starts. Thanks!

[@ChokeOnHamburder]

Lucid.Insights is quite a funny handle considering how dumb that comment was.

[@mattconnolly6341]

Guys, made the comment before but you’re completely fk’n up my Monday Spotify which I look forward to so much with these political fools and as ever ALWAYS from the predictable one side. Please please stop being political. Particularly with proven liars like RM. Otherwise go full in and offer balance. All least Maher offers people he doesn’t agree with. Another pod I can’t fkd bear to listen to. If there was any balance I’d listen to everyone but same pathetic blind lovein. Back to listen next week.

[@oafee1053]

You know, it's occassionally good to hear people with different views than yourself speaking. Unless you're live in fear of cognitive dissonance and having to wonder if perhaps... just perhaps that there are more perspectives with value than you can cope with. It's the adult equivalent of 'la la la, I can't hear you'

[@mattconnolly6341]

@@oafee1053 You didn’t read my point clearly. Of course I listen to all opinions but this is a great amusing entertainment podcast. If they’re going to go political, go all in and have both sides. What’s frustrating is they only ever have one blinkered perspective. I think we have enough politics imo. Have no issue listening to opinions I may disagree with so the point you’re making to me is the point I’m making to them.

[@treeeester]

Love you guys but Rachel Maddow's comments on Palestine & spreading of false information, SUCK. Used to love her, but passing on her here on out. 😞

[@ChokeOnHamburder]

Hmmm, I don't think I recall any of that in this episode, you complete loon.

[@timbulman4419]

So Will and Jason are literally country club liberals.

[@ericskonberg5408]

Or possibly just engaged, conscious, adults who prefer a balanced political system and that seems liberal to you in an unbalanced Trump era political climate.
