    OMG, so fun to see your faces! I know your voices so well and now you all spring to life before my very eyes. Thanks for the UA-cam vids. Donated! PS - I always imagine John P. in a suit and tie and he turns out to look like my 24 year old son.

    “We need a Joe Rogan.”
    They had a Joe Rogan. It was Joe Rogan. Rogan was on the left enough that he endorsed Bernie Sanders in 2016 & 2020.

      Exactly. The Bernie Bros moved over to Trump's camp and the Dems only have their backroom dealing leadership to blame.

    I'm a huge Matt Continetti fan, but it's kinda refreshing to not have to worry that Jon P. will be cut off while he's talking...which Matt has taken to doing regularly.
    Matt's commentary is *always* on-point....but Jon P. reigns supreme, in terms of erudition & wit----I'd always prefer him finishing his thought (yes, even when he's "monologuizing"). : - )

    On one hand, you can't underestimate Biden's senility/stupidity and iron-clad pattern of making the wrong decision--in this case, issue blanket preemptive pardons. On the other hand, am not sure how he'd benefit (other than re: family members who could implicate him--those pardons WILL happen); it would be widely interpreted as a wild overreach & possibly not legally defensible; and many of the recipients would not wish to be painted with the "presumed-guilty" flavor imparted by a pardon...especially one issued from such a widely disgraced figure.
    Separately, kudos to Abe for not using Bradley Manning's thoroughly horsesh*t fake pronoun/"gender identity."

    Liberals had a Joe Rogan. His name was Joe Rogan. They are the ones driving him right and towards the center. Joe Rogan is not a conservative but he does believe in free speech.

    • @TerrapinJack

      They also have Pod Save America, which I do listen to and can attest to the fact it is AWFUL.
      Liberals cannot have good conversations outside of their bubble, otherwise they become Joe Rogan

    I have long listened to your audio podcast and am thrilled to be seeing you now. My ONLY complaint is that I miss the Hope for the Best, Expect the Worst bumper music from the audio. Would you consider adding that in? But even if you don't, I'll still make a donation, because I don't think I could do without you guys.

      Yeah, why did they change the intro music?

    • @FallenAngelBrass
      @FallenAngelBrass Місяць тому +1

      My guess is because Commentary's presence on this platform is monetized, there are copyright issues with using that music. You can use almost anything for your own enjoyment, but using it in commerce runs into intellectual property law.

    Is John imitating Fetterman clothing wise?

    Love the youthful look today, JPod!
    Listener since the very beginning and still very tickled by the video version! Can’t help but think there may have been quite a few eye-rolls witnessed during previous lineups, had they been recorded… ; )

      Oh, for sure. It definitely didn't happen when a certain stained dress surfaced...
