💕brener⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Love the show!
-
GoTen Super Sayian 3InsufferableThere’s no substance with the show. She just yells everyone someone disagrees with her. Definitely on the Blue MAGA side.
-
Brimstone’s MumLong time listenerI have been a HUGE fan of Francesca on TDR forever. I am devastated that I won’t get to hear her conversations with John any more. I unfollowed all TYT shows except TDR a few months ago. I now feel vindicated in that choice. Hopefully John will leave soon so I can ditch TYT altogether. Happy to follow you over here now Francesca. Here’s to your audience growing and to your continued success!
-
rosebudd29Once a Dragon…The heart felt and truly caring voice of Francesca Fiorentini gives a smart and sharp expression of hope for the progressive movement in the USA
-
12DoppyUnreliable sourceDoesn’t truly or thoroughly investigate her claims. Designed to provoke emotions not inform.
-
Informal addressFrancesca is great butHer guests can be hit or miss. Usually, they are great as well. However, sometimes, she, frankly, has on some obnoxious guests. I’m talking armchair philosophers and insanely destructive opinions. Whatever. Francesca is hilarious and an awesome host. The show is great overall.
-
Soulsonic1234Funny and thoughtfulIn times when empathy is under attack, it’s nice to hear someone considerate and thoughtful while ridiculously funny
-
Jorgan_GarlathErudite and nuanced reporting and analysisA strangely lucid and progressive take on the earth’s current chaos
-
nigey&jackYou ROCKOMG...You ROCK!!!!
-
ReallyDude2002Best Leftist PodFrancesca is bold and not afraid to hold back. Holding our leaders and journalists accountable. She does all of this while being funny.
-
NilesEisenSteinYes! Make fun of evil people!Francesca is so smart and talented. We need to support strong voices like hers in these crazy times as these billionaires try to unravel everything. We are all so grateful to have your analyses!!!
-
AlexBarrientosOne of the best!Francesca is by far one of the best political hosts out there! Super knowledgeable, funny and kind. I always take something out of her shows!
-
CthulhusButtPugFrantifaFrantastic.

SofeineMorontiniI listened to this show for the first time and this woman is a complete lunatic. Anyone who listens to this moron and take her seriously, please seek professional counseling
-
Nor Cal Farm GirlCenk is SunkLet’s call him the correct name, Just Phil. He’s no doc, it’s Just Phil. Thank you for being freakin the best Francesca. I’m obsessed but I promise not to stalk you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
-
On two feetExercise in privilegeListened to about twenty of these episodes privilege of a person too young to be punk but just old enough to be a “sjw” all the great privilege vocab veterans bad, muslim terrorist good, Palestinian people good, American fetuses (babies) bad, she seems nice but unfortunately she can’t shake her cognitive dissonance.
-
eease una vezLove this showIncluding the fart song! I really like how Francesca inserts random comic touches in otherwise difficult and hard topics. Great job!
-
Joshua/BrooklynThe fart songThe fart song : I throw up a little every time I hear it. But that’s just me :) I love everything else though.
-
Raunchy AngelSo smartYou kill it , I am learning so much listening to your show .

Angram06Great podcast!Love listening to Fran every Tuesday! So much info and she makes it funny especially in this time of political chaos. Love you! R/ Angie
-
ElmoCruxGreat take on today’s issues. And some humor too!Love this podcast. Always covers all sides of the issues and provides thorough analysis. And keeps it fun!
-
lindsayeileenInsufferableI truly can’t stand Francesca and her ignorant viewpoints. I tried to have an open mind with her, and it gave me brain rot. She’s definitely one who sees herself as the smartest person in the room, but she’s grossly mistaken. She’s so dishonest, and the worst part is that she knows she’s lying but she has a herd of sheep who eat it right up. Disgusting.
-
SosmartsostupidFran is a con and is paid for by the DNCI recommend disengaging from this show. Fran talked about Palestine for clout and now is doubling down telling you to vote for Kamala Harris. Someone who has no policy at all, just copy and pasted from joe bidens website. The same war mongerer unaliving Ukrainians and Palestinians right now. Fran knows about the Ukraine prozy war by association with the Mate family but chooses not to tell her audience about this because that would hurt her viewership. She also works for the young Turks which is bought out by Corp. Stop watching this podcast. Bad HASBARA is PINKWASHING and not telling you the truth either. It’s trying to distract you with progressive commentary while completely depriving you of any real truths I recommend instead: The grayzone Dialogue works Mint press news Richard medhurst Danny Haiphong Breakthrough news Electronic intifada You all deserve to hear the truth and hold people like fran accountable just like I’m doing right now. This is our duty to each other to hold ourselves and each other accountable we owe that to each other F the Ukraine prozy war Free Palestine Don’t be spineless like Matt and Fran and Daniel mate

PDiddyQKHate speechAnti-semetic, Anti-Zionist. Unfollowing.

KenzieBluesGreat conversations!I love the guests and convos. I don’t necessarily agree with all of Francesca’s takes, but that’s part of what I like about this podcast. I appreciate the conversations and analyses, as well as the humor.
-
