Che Block1985-2024For median household income, you didn’t seem to take into consideration the fact that two persons are working to make the jump from 60,000 to 80,000

Lulu3305Susan RiceThe answer you gave to the question in the beginning of your show was brilliant. I have such great respect for Ms. Rice and so glad you were able to have her on your show.

a bit of stardustClaremont Colleges vs Claremont Institute—it mattersDavid, on your video podcast with Charlie Sykes, you mentioned Claremont College as an incubator of extreme right wing ideology. What you meant (let’s hope, because otherwise you’re slandering Claremont Colleges) is Claremont Institute, which has no relationship whatsoever with The Claremont Colleges. The Claremont Colleges includes five undergraduate liberal arts colleges and two graduate institutions: Pomona College, Claremont Graduate University, Scripps College, Claremont McKenna College, Harvey Mudd College, Pitzer College and Keck Graduate Institute. Please fact check and be more careful. This kind of sloppy commentary hurts respectable, legitimate institutions and the students who attend them.

M. ShashaVital and Enriching ConversationsOne of the rare, bittersweet comforts of this terrifying Trump era is the emergence of great citizens who are rising to the moment. David Frum is one of them. David embodies the informed integrity, spirit of free inquiry and unapologetic advocacy of democracy in the best American tradition - the very qualities the current GOP regime has no use for. A high compliment- these conversations are often bracing, always thoughtful, and usually too short.

J23678Bravo!Traditionally a Republican, David stands out as smart, rational, and clear eyed about the dangers of Trump and the anti-democratic MAGA movement in America. I’ve been a devoted reader of his pieces in the Atlantic for years and so excited he jumped into the podcast universe. Bravo Mr. Frum, keep up the heroic and sadly rare work of honest journalism!

quikoniA reliefWith all of the chaos, insanity and outright lying coming from one particular side, it's a breath of fresh air to hear intelligent people actually speaking facts. Contrary to someone spewing ignorance and saying whatever they want just so they can meet a political agenda.

GeriAnnMSo goodIf you had told me a decade or so ago that someday I’d be hanging onto every word of GWB’s former speechwriter, I’d have said you’re crazy. But that’s the one silver lining of these terrible times: finding common ground across political identities. Frum never fails to enlighten me. I am grateful.

byFredExIntelligent, Insightful and TimelyI stumbled onto The David Frum Show’s first episode while reading an excellent article by Mr. Frum in The Atlantic. It couldn’t have come at a better time. Current events have left me with the feeling I was alone in thinking that all this can’t be happening. While news articles are focused on documenting the latest assault on normalcy, the podcast not only analyzes events and trends, but it puts them into such an amazing perspective. Mr. Frum always seems to find some of the most intelligent and credentialed leaders in their field to interview. It gives me hope there are adults in the room and that just as this current madness had a beginning, it will have an end.

B.J. in NCValues MatterAside from the excellent production, the obvious advance work done in preparation for each episode, and the incredible guests that shed so much light on each subject, it’s the personal and professional values that David Frum and his team imbue each episode with that makes this one of the best podcasts I have ever listened to. Those values matter. Whether it’s truth, balance, compassion, integrity, honesty, humility, or other character traits that define us, David and his team not only bring them in spades, but they are the foundation of this podcast and each of its episodes. Bravo, to David, the production team, and all of the incredible staff members at the Atlantic. I am so proud to be a subscriber and supporter of the work they are doing at such a critical time.

qAtticusClear and Thoughtful AnalysisThis podcast provides exactly the reasoned discussions and thoughtful analysis of the issues of the day that one would expect from The Atlantic generally and Mr. Frum specifically. Exceptional podcast.

Serp No11David Frum should be compulsory, listening for all citizens.Whenever I can find content from David, I do my best to consume it. Sometimes I even slow down from 1.5 times to one to make sure I can capture and absorb the complex insights that he shares. He thinks and speaks with a clarity and a depth that is rare in today’s discourse.

PetersquaredFirst time listenerDavid as the first time listener I really enjoyed the show that I have just listened to and agree with you that out social democracy’s capacity to change takes a long time My one criticism is the commercial played about gambling. If you have any power to change that I would appreciate it thanks Peter.

RustyDusty55A welcome respite from the many “hot-takes” reaction podcasts.Mr. Frum provides the polar opposite of the “kick ‘em in the nuts” flood of reactionary political podcasts. He is gifted in his ability to build an argument from the foundation up, explaining it engagingly and memorably. Thank you David, for your excellent work in service of a better future.

UseresqueFrom FrumRare, insightful, informed, and hyper-intelligent critical thinking at its finest. Frum is to conservative theory as Ezra is to the progressive approach. Finally the political perspective internet has the counterpoints it desperately needs in place at this pivotal moment in North American history. Bravo, Team Frum!
