    New take on the Hannity and Colmes format.
    The main thing you’re going to be listing to is commercials. A great format with strong left voice Cody Johnston working against cartoonish centrist Katy Stoll. They way they use the character of straw dog Katy Stoll defending various right wing monsters in American politics like JD Vance to make Cody’s cogent arguments seem much more logical is masterful podcasting. Probably the most commercials I’ve ever seen for an hour podcast? Like 30 minutes of advertisements for every hour of podcast. Good overall, but a heroic amount of advertising.

    Jonathan’s nice hat
    Nice hat! No bet. I love this show. I’ve been listening regularly for years. Informative and entertaining. Keep it up!
  • Phytophilous Dragon
    Excellent, funny, and pertinent
    I stumbled upon this show and fell in love! They discuss a topic that is often presented in a misleading way by larger corporate media and address the biases that cause it. They name (or show even more, if you watch their YouTube,) their sources but try to have fun and bring some levity to current affairs, which can be dark. I am literally listening to their whole backlog presently. Overall serious, with some silly.

    Nice hat
    I like nice hats and I cannot lie. I like the hats that the various hosts may or may not be wearing. It makes me want such a nice hat for myself on my head. I love the topical discussions of various topics and creams. Jonathan is wearing a hat.

    If I know Jonathon, and I do not, I know for a fact he’s not wearing a hat. And I would $44.37 on it. Yeah I’m that confident.

  • Sylvia094
    I don’t know how they’re still the only news podcast!
    I’ve been watching their show since they were on C******.com, and they’ve only gotten better and better since then. The news is exhausting, but they make it manageable. Plus, Jonathan is also here!

    Supporting libraries looks like voting
    Libraries are often funded by cities and counties through taxes. Whomp whomp, yes please vote for taxes and levies.

    Joe!
    Don’t beat up Cody!
  • Zimmerthan
    The only news source, now with even more news
    Big fan of this show. Found it during the pandemic. Good takes on bad things. Hope they don’t get burnt out with increased news/the Monday show (it’s been such a pleasant surprise having this in my podcast feed at the start and end of my week). Keep up the good work.
  • Josey Wales, MD

    What a great ep, thank you for that. Signed, not that kind of Republican. ❤️

    Hilarious, well researched and very informative

    The Only News Podcast
    If you want news in podcast form this is the only place to go. I have been a fan for years and now more than ever the work done on this podcast is critical.
  • Francillious
    Informative, Funny, Very Thoughtful
    I very much enjoy this podcast in general, but the Feb 7, 2025 was particularly bracing, encouraging, and supportive. The fireside discussion around embracing what actually matters IRL and not burning our energy on online tumult truly filled me up. Thank you so much!
  • LB's Dragon
    Love it
    Very informative very funny
  • 0xbeepBoop
    What is this life.
    Holding a mirror up to the incipient Robocop 2 hellscape we are transitioning to. Oh, I shouldn’t have said “transition”, I probably triggered MTG somewhere into making her hotdog mouth face. But you know what, we don’t need to be woke anymore; MTG is a woman(supposedly) so she shouldn’t be in charge of anything. She should be the hotdog concubine for the dessicated, past due, 7-11 hotdog that is running things
  • LuluMae1515
    I love you very much
    Every day is a holiday with you!
  • ARKLucero
    Good Arguments, Bad Messaengers
    While the takes on SMN are generally accurate, they’re rarely more than surface level explorations and the information can be found from a number of other sources that have a more compelling delivery. Cody’s character (or it is just him) is not nearly as clever as he believes.
  • davebyday
    More News is the best News
    Very entertaining and informative deep dives, and fun, thoughtful conversations between Kody, Katie, and Johnathan. Thanks to More News, I better understand where we’re at and how we got here, while still being able to laugh about it.
  • Dwight Kurt
    Unremarkable
    Nominally leftist, but there is zero class analysis or focus on financial inequality. Mostly filled with the talking points present on MSNBC, without any deeper analysis or discussion.
  • GladiateGoat
    Excellent Pod
    Excellent Pod
  • Flapp flap flap
    Show is great, but…
    This is the second time I’ve deleted out an episode rather than hear a host forgiveness wash a person who legitimately voted for a racist President. It’s great that they “think they’re not a bad person”, but you’re bad person adjacent.
  • HoneyPotCoffee
    I love the show, but please stop interrupting Katy
    I really enjoy the SMN and Even More News, but people have to please stop interrupting Katy while she’s speaking. I know it happens to others, but I notice it happening to her so much that every time she speaks for more than a few sentences someone else cuts in. Other than that, it’s great!
  • Erinhoerchler
    EMN in separate feed please
    Can you put ENM in a separate feed? It’s really just Katy talking at this point
  • Danniboiiiiii
    Exceptional
    I rate this show 5/5 warmbos
  • Engineercomedy
    Informative & funny
    Katy and Cody always make getting the news less depressing!
  • ไม่งั้นจะ
    Katy pilled
    Always interesting to hear both sides from two hosts on the opposite sides of the political spectrum and Jonathan.
  • Genghis Mage
    They were really good once
    I consumed this content for years but at this point the hosts are simply negative about everything. I don’t think they provide useful balanced information anymore as their emotions and personal biases against, seemingly everyone, makes the show impossible to listen to now. I am more sad than anything.
  • Bizcochito73
    Ugh. So much rambling and negativity
    Two stars because Johnathan is articulate, smart and when the other two stop talking, provides salient points. Cody rambles, rambles and “yeah ugh ooh yea” and says nothing of substance. The contrarian never satisfied with anything trope is tiring and frustrating, plus he’s constantly interrupting. Katie seems like she’s going to say something substantive but then loses track and diverges and goes on tangents and has to always mention about her life in the mountains and uses big words that often fail to state a cogent idea. I tried, I’ve tried to give this pod the benefit of the doubt because I want to hear other voices on the left but I always feel I wasted a precious hour of my life to listen to people rambling with no message other than “we hate everybody but can’t articulate why”
