Marshall-for the December/August episodes, how would you feel single hosting a more debate style format? Bring on two guests who have diverging opinions, and moderate a conversation. Just an idea
Hey Guys! I love the show! I don't care about your intro. Its fine by me. But I do want to hear you guys explore more into Web3 and DAOs. Like ever since that episode you guys did on the Constitution DAO. I've been hooked on the idea of using something like a DAO to organize people towards a specific issue or piece of legislation. Like take congressional reform. Congress is never going to limit itself. That would be up to the people to organize a constitutional convention state by state to ratify a Stocks Amendment, so to speak. What if we used a DAO or some other kind of program centered around the blockchain to organize the propagation of the amendment and the collection of "signatures" to submit to the statehouse. You would need proof of residency and citizenship of course. But coupled with a face, a podcast and political movement like Yang's Forward Party, it might be a way to propose an amendment to each statehouse that engages people to re-discover that we can hold a convention to amend the constitution. And if we can do that, then maybe something like this could be used to organize the people of a state to propose bills before the Statehouse.
I know its a random thought in a forum for feedback for the coming year. But if you guys could find people to explore that idea further where web3 and crypto could become the gears of political reform. That would be sweet!
I'd like to chime with some positive feedback. I greatly dislike reading/listening to things I know I'll agree with almost 100%, but it can be infuriating to listen to something just because you know you will disagree with it - and I wonder if I'm wasting valuable free time when doing so.
The Realignment has managed to solve this problem wonderfully (Except the guest who described Pete Buttigieg as 'talking in poetry'. A man has his limits).
And the most recent episode with Alex Kantrowitz provided some amazing moments of friction.
I think your intros are great. I skip through the promo soundbite but I love hearing your perspective(s) about a guest especially since you often interview people ideologically opposed to yourselves. Marshall your lib hat is awesome and a testament to the mission of the pod.
I think you guys are starting to find an effective way to intellectually describe the right of center culture war. As a fan I think it’s important to differentiate between FoxNews/OAN/Newsmax and independent conservative content. I would love to see interviews with Daily Wire hosts or Crowder for example. The beauty of their platform is that they are biased and they put that out front. Conflating them with Fox/NewsMax is wrong and many of them openly say they would go on independent shows. I think it would be worth hearing those conversations.
Hi Marshall and Sagar. Love your guy's work and I listen to every episode. I appreciate hearing various perspectives on all the topics you cover. I am not looking for affirmation of my own beliefs, but try to understand other's perspectives, so I enjoy the variety you present.
I have one minor issue. I nearly always find it easier to hear your guest(s) than I can hear you. I unfortunately have a low end BlueTooth audio system in my car and I have to turn up the volume for you guys and turn it down for your guests. Especially when Marshall speaks, I suspect because he has a deep voice and is such a chill dude!

Can't wait for 2022.
