I have been listening to Honestly for about 9 months now. I am very impressed with the pragmatic journalism The Free Press practices and delivers. I have found my thinking influenced and informed by what I have heard and learned.
Yesterday, while listening to Eli Lake moderate another informative podcast, I realized that I had not yet heard an Honestly podcast that featured a discussion of common, every day citizens, "non-experts" if you please, talking about how they see things. What do they expect from their politics and institutions to get the country back on the right track? It got me wondering if Honestly, and its guests to date, despite best efforts, exists in the same technocratic political and cultural echo chamber that is preventing our leaders from listening to and understanding what a majority of the Americans are really experiencing, thinking and expect.
I would really like to see Honestly widen its lens of journalism and opinion to include more common sense views and opinions of working class Americans, in addition to the current coverage and discussion you are providing. Thanks for listening.
