    _Original Wisdom - Stories of an Ancient Way of Knowing_
    Thom, _Original Wisdom - Stories of an Ancient Way of Knowing_ is one of my favorite books! So inspiring ~ Inspiration for these times! Thank you for your part
  • Upstate NY listener
    If you’re looking for truth, look elsewhere
    Thomm is a pundit, that is incapable of telling the truth. He still uses quotes like “good people on both sides” and “ suckers and losers” in his arguments. If you’re looking for facts, look somewhere else. If you’re looking g for comedy, give it a listen.

    Another Jew hating Israel bashing Leftist
    Thom has zero crediblity with any actually educated person with constant his blood libels, revisionist history, lies and distortions about Jews and Israel, the Gaza War, and shamelessly spreading Hamas propaganda, calling Netanyahu a “war criminal,’ etc. All while defending Arab Palestinian violence, colonialism of Jewish indigenous land, justifying Palestinian terrorism while ignoring the ACTUL human rights atrociteis happening across the rest of Middle East and N. Africa aka the Arab Muslim world.

    Thomm is great, but the show can be irritating.
    Such a smart guy, but some of his callers can be super irritating and he doesn’t always shut them down. Plus the horrible folksy original singing of a progressive agenda are enough to make me tune out. I love a progressive agenda, but it put to hokey music and lyrics makes my skin crawl. Please stop.

    One of the Few Who Tells the Truth!
    Keep telling the truth so we know what the fascists are doing! I just beg you to please stop playing that horrible music!! I almost can’t listen to you anymore because it is constant!
  • I don’t have all dayj
    Daily take sound
    I can’t hear the daily take sound but sometimes it plays it before a regular program. I can’t get away from it so I have this sound on that I can’t hear for however long it’s on then I have to go back to my phone to start another program. I have been a long time listener to Thom (way before podcasts)
  • WallyPie
    UX needs improvement
    Really wanted to get into this pod but JFC the audio is terrible and I can’t handle the constant musical and ad breaks. It’s hard enough to deal with divergent audio quality between host/guest during an interview but then to play music over the guest while they’re speaking, and the music and ads are louder than the speaking… no, thank you. User experience needs attention and improvement here.
  • SageFairy
    This show is my saving grace
    Thank you so much for the work you do Thom
  • Lexie'smom2
    SOUND
    Please make an adjustment to the sound on the Dailey Takes. You talk softly and then the commercials come on and blow out my ears. Love all your pods.
  • tHAC0mancer
    Use of AI ruins the show
    Wish I could recommend but the generative AI “songs” in every episode are grating and undercut its message. Sad to see a progressive voice promoting this anti-creative, anti-worker grift instead of licensing real music or employing real songwriters.

    November 26 Podcast
    What a perfect explainer of how the media worked to help Trump and how Biden and Harris did not take advantage of it. This was a real eye-opener for me thank you.
  • TCogg
    Middle of the Road
    If the host even recognizes that something is wrong with this election, he should stop saying what Dems did wrong. We don’t know the real numbers. If Trump gets busted for this and it gets corrected, all this blame game is rash, irrelevant, and harmful.
  • Zed_55
    My favorite podcast..daily!
    Thom Hartman hosts this enlightening, informative, entertaining podcast grounded in reality and truth. … always with a positive outlook.
  • EdeTM
    Don’t Need
    another Democrat’s mainstream take on politics. I get enough of that from the liberal media outlets. Despite what one reviewer wrote, this is NOT a podcast for Progressives.
  • SailorCurt
    Great.!
    Great program.!
  • Keep it secular
    No more religion please
    Love your podcasts but for all of us non-Christian’s, please try to refrain.
  • artsdistrictchic
    Fat Elvis is hilarious
    Finally! Dems are done with “going high” it’s so much better to “go low”! Fat Elvis hahahaha!!!
  • Sofeine
    Unbelievable
    Thom Hartmann is a complete nut job and his entire audience are idiots and conspiracy nut jobs. This show confirms Progressives love being LIED to.
  • Marie Tellez
    I love your program , very informative and helpful
    Love your work

    Divisive
    Divisive, whistling past the graveyard of the dnc, alas thom is a good man, who has lost sight of the bigger picture. The war machine loves this show.
  • Jc5437
    The worst of us
    Thank you for your GOP corruption episode on March 11, 2024. The names and dates of the criminality is a painful reminder of past and present political events. When a date is mentioned in the podcast I think that’s more than 7 years ago, but what is the statute of limitations for the crime of Treason?
  • meliscottkimball
    My only daily podcast
    Thom Hartmann is the guy to listen to if you want clear, concise explanations of what is going on in this crazy country of ours. His knowledge of history and his ability to tie it into the present is remarkable. His callers are usually informed citizens with good words to share. I learn a lot every time I listen.
  • Concerned listener on Wed
    Sound problems!
    The sound over the past week has been very low! My iPhone is not able to turn up the audio anymore. Please check this issue out. Thank you!
  • tilghmac
    Sound
    The sound is low and then high when it goes to commercials. Have to turn it up so hi to hear and then get blasted. Hard tp listen
  • Fluffster Normalpaws
    Volume
    What’s going on with the volume levels? Thom H’s presentation involves cranking the volume to 11 recently. Then the commercials come in ridiculously loud. What’s wrong with the audio? It didn’t used to be like this, & other shows are not like this. Needless to say this critique is a compliment in disguise, as I would really like to hear what Thom H has to say. Especially the book recommendations. Update: I just can’t listen to this at all anymore. WTHeck is wrong with the volume. I’ll check back in at some point to reassess my 1 star. But at this point this is untenable. What the Heck.
  • California2019
    Yeah no
    It’s liberal not left
  • Atticus25
    Indispensable
    Thom is a national treasure and an essential resourse for truth, historic context, and moral fortitude. Thom is a beacon of light in this dark period of American politics. I’m grateful to him (and his wife/staff) for working so hard to keep us informed on what’s really going down. Thank you.

    You know that “unbearable lightness of being” feeling when you read something that runs on all cylinders? It happened twice in a row! I think you are a long lost brother, unlike my actual nj Dem brothers. You say what is in my heart and mind and has been the truth I’ve lived with since starting NJ City U in 1963. Nice to meetcha’😊

    Emily, a Medicare agent
    I really wanted to hear what Emily had to say about Medicare and the Advantage plans, but Tom just talked over her and hung up on her. I respected Tom until this point. He would not allow Emily to offer the information she has as an insider who might have shed more light on this subject. Instead he was rude to her and I missed out on a conversation I wanted to hear. I have an Advantage plan and have not been refused services on any occasion. In addition I have recently been able to add some very good dental care. Please allow people to talk.

    student loans
    congrats Mike getting your school loans! may the other lady get hers canceled too and the other guy who will never pay it off it’s called greed, marginalization, and institutionalizing racism vs people getting educated !
  • Enervated American
    Thanks for all the good Conversations
    I have enjoyed your show over this challenging period in American life. I will miss not tuning in to hear some of the topics that are discussed
  • feminist warrior
    Outstanding intellectual content
    Thom, his guests and callers are a refreshing change from the typical political podcast.

    SCJ CLEARANCE THOMAS
    As disgusting as Thomas’ behavior was at this point based on what we know it does not rise to impeachable behavior. As bad as the first example Tom gave impeaching Thomas would be as bad. The senator should investigate. Base on what we know Thomas deserves censure.
  • eric of tacoma
    Nobody is better than Thom.
    He is the Elvis of Progressive Talk show hosts. He is professor and inspiring teacher, of not just the news but movement thought. His show is cool, sober. So starkly in contrast to many over heated conservative blowhards.
  • In the know555
    Insightful
    In the ocean of millionaire right wing propaganda, it is one of the few shows that actually get proper insight on all sorts of issues. Unfortunately, like the few other low paid progressive voices, all the comments are flooded with hateful ignorance either paid for or influenced by all the right wing misinformation on all media paid for by ultra millionaires.
  • ItchyPickles007
    Thom’s show in two words
    Racism and Reagan. That pretty much sums up everything he talks about. Conservatives are all racists, and everything wrong with America today is the fault of Ronald Reagan. You will hear that over and over and over again. Every. Single. Show. If you’re a progressive who just wants your priors “confirmed”, this is the podcast for you. I say “confirmed” because Thom just gaslights you. He says things he, and progressives, want to be true, but usually aren’t. For example, in Ep. #1471 at the 26:19 mark Thom claims “the majority of Americans who voted for a member of the House of Representatives in 2022 voted for the Democrat”. That’s untrue. Republicans received millions more votes than did the Democrats. For someone who makes his living as a political commentator he has to know that isn’t true, but he so wants it to be true he just lies and tells his audience it is true. He will also make up quotes from conservatives and then mumble “…or words to the effect.” (In other words, “they didn’t really say that, but this is what I want them to have said.”) What’s scary is the number of callers to his show who tell him they “learn so much from him”. And speaking of callers, Thom has the same callers on all the time. Morris from Long Beach, Kenyatta, Jessica from Chicago, Paul from Minnesota, Dave, Chaz … the list goes on. They’re either paid contributors or Thom’s audience is so small that the same handful of callers can easily get through. What’s especially funny is when a thoughtful conservative gets on the air and Thom has no answer for them. He will stammer for a bit, then give his condescending sigh before hanging up on them. If you’re a conservative wanting to learn rational arguments for what the “other side” thinks, you won’t find that here. You’ll learn what the far-left thinks (spoiler alert: you’re a racist), but there’s no good faith arguments to learn from. Which is unfortunate because as much as Thom decries it, he is a contributor to our worsening political climate. His show is nothing more than a left wing echo chamber where progressives can go to feel morally superior to their fellow Americans. If that’s what you want, give Thom a listen. If you want rational arguments (or justifications), you’ll need to look elsewhere.

    What hospital do your kids work at? My daughter works in the Cardio unit at OHSU. Who knows how many variants are circulating in China, not to mention others countries around the world. Is Title 42 wrong? Let’s be honest, Covid is not over and we need to remain vigilant here in the US as this virus is not going away regardless of what Biden says… You need to finish reading ‘The Jungle!’

    Sanity
    I credit Thom and his podcast for keeping me sane over the past few years. Thank you for your mission to provide the American people the unvarnished truth. Also, it is incredibly uplifting to hear the voices of so many callers who’s do hear and see the truth.

    Ep. 1286 - WORTHINESS OF COLLEGE DEGREE
    There was a time that one wished to become educated, and strived to go to College. It was not “to get a job.” I was lucky enough to go to junior college and college preReagan in California. I worked my way through 2 BA degrees while working 32 hrs./week. I used that liberal arts education every day of my life in my hospital work. Education opens the world to you.

    Angry old man
    Another Baby Boomer angry about the world he helped to make. “It’s all the Republicans fault!” Cry me a river !
  • Acevcp714
    Ha ha ha….dudes crazy!
    This is nothing but lies and hate. Leftists always accuse the right of what they are already doing….Russia, spying on candidates, stolen election. How about looking up True the Vote and their video that is undisputed, judicially approved Zuckerberg drop box theft videos. They did this in AZ, MI, PA, GA etc etc. They paid people to stuff the unconstitutional mail in crap boxes that Zucker-felon put everywhere. They even Geo-Tracked the criminals doing it. 2000 Mules…. Enjoy your indoctrination….sheep! One more thing….it says this is an independent podcast….how about Marxist podcast…more appropriate!

    Misinformation
    As a democrat I just think this guy is like Brian Williams and Chris cuomo A total propagandist it’s misinformation at its best
  • Dr. Nomecat
    What is with these right wing callers?
    The host does an ok job of “respectfully disagreeing”, but he doesn’t debunk the nonsense they just spewed to the world.

    Thank you Thom! A brilliant beacon in these hard times!
  • @chrisopherblue
    highly respected truth teller
    i have listened to you since air America….the clarity you provide about our nations issues is an important counterbalance to the lies being spread to divide us….

    Crypto ads?????!!!!!!!!!
    Why is Tom having crypto ads? The ad in particular says you can move your retirement account to crypto….. what???!! It flies in the face of Tom’s great advice to seniors to steer clear of medicare advantage. Can’t you do better Tom? Do you need the money so bad you want to sell out your listeners? How can you sleep at night if one person moves their life savings to crypto and looses everything to some grifting billionaire because of your show. There are good companies you could promote. Sam Seder has good companies advertise on his show. I hope you do better. Thanks for the show.
