Ask a question

Ukraine From at Least one Ukrainian

You have a consistent viewpoint that is Ukraine skeptical. Would you have on the show a Ukrainian journalist? Perhaps from Kyiv Independent such as Illia Ponomarenko? Also, a few other recommendations (not Ukranian) that could at least add some balance to your coverage: Mark Galeotti, Vladislav Davidzon, Valerie Hopkins, Dmitri (@wartranslated), Kamil Galeev, Oz Katerji, or Terrell Jermaine Starr.

"Ukraine From at Least one Ukrainian" - follow up

"Would you have on the show a Ukrainian journalist?" I have been making this request for months. It is most unfortunate that Saagar and Krystal are unwilling to do this. It has to be a deliberate decision on their point, and it really shows a bias on their part. They seem to be unwilling to share with their audience any information that contradicts with their views. It is just very disappointing. I think they do a lot of good work in domestic politics. But their international coverage is just very misinformed.

Tweet About Krystal

https://twitter.com/bigmadcrab/status/1619893448362037248?s=46&t=dZ1NH8BH4gNmO-KU_rfyXw I saw this tweet and Jimmy Dore replying and am so annoyed with the bad takes. Is it supposed to be shocking that 3 years and 2 failed presidential failures for progressives later, someone would believe their best move is to be in the ear of the establishment winner, rather than remaining an outsider and begging for a revolution? Would love to hear Krystal correct the bad takes. These people should just watch her talk about the Forward Party to understand her take with context.

I've reached my breaking point with Breaking Points AMA

As a long-time listener, proud supporting member, and relentless promoter to all of my friends, work colleagues, and family (to the point of annoying them), I've recently been struggling with a very distracting issue with your show. To be perfectly blunt, my issue is with Krystal. Krystal frequently interrupts Saagar, which is quite distracting and off-putting for me as a listener. It disrupts the conversation's flow and makes it difficult for Saagar to articulate his thoughts fully. Quite frankly, this has been the biggest complaint I heard back from new listeners of your show. I understand and appreciate the passion Krystal brings to each episode, but your podcast's success comes from the juxtaposition of your viewpoints. The mainstream media is oversaturated with cable newscasters talking over others and beating each other to death with their beliefs. For the good of the show, your future growth, and continuing success with your podcast, I hope my observations help you grow.
