I love everything you do. My one complaint is that some of the podcasts with guests are sometimes over an hour long. I try and watch Katie Phang, Rick Wilson, Jim Acosta and others. It’s impossible to watch when so many of the podcasts are sometimes lengthy. I so appreciate all the work. But it works better for me to read a story than listen. Just my thoughts but I love MTN and I tell everyone about the network.

I agree with that totally. I don’t have 8 - 10 free hours in a day to dedicate to all the hosts I want to support. What they say is important to me, but I would truly appreciate if these segments could stay within 20 minutes in length. If they would do more shorter segments instead of one hour-long one, it would help with scheduling my “must read/watch” along with “that which I want to watch, too.” I have someone to take care of and he needs my time more. Just a thought, which is what you asked for. Btw, you are saving lives with the TRUTH, as opposed to the tsunami of misdirection/misinformation we must slog through each day. Kudos !

I know what you are saying about long. What I do is divide them up. I watch for a while, do my chores, watch again, go for a walk, watch, again, eat dinner and then finish up my watching. I can't miss an episode of any of the one's I watch because I need to know what is going on. I can't wait to hear the truth. It's so refreshing - truth verses lies. The times that we are in are not refreshing, but I keep hoping to hear that there's been a breakthrough with this regime, like when we heard about the breakthrough with cancer. It's got to happen one of these days and until it does, we keep fighting. Fighting for our country - our Constitution and our Democracy.

I keep asking for a transcript of Ron Filipkowski's mid-week YouTube videos. I love Ron, but I don't have an hour and a half to watch a video, with everything else I do. I can read a transcript, much faster. Even an AI transcript with the usual funny mistakes. :)

I agree that reading can be done easier at times than watching and listening. But love all of it.

Julie, try speeding up the audio a little and see if that helps. I click to 1.25 or 1.5 myself. (Warning: Don't try it with Medhi Hasan!)

I've made this comment a couple of times about the length of some of the episodes. Adam Mockler has abbreviated, concise content that make him easier to follow. I love Popok and the Meiselas brothers and more. I just do not have hours to spend. Sometimes I stop watching an episode when I think the point has been made. So if you see that sometimes we don't watch to the end, that's why.

I stopped watching and reading corporate media after the election. You Tube channels are my news source. And Substack, of course.
