I like it when you bring REAL JOURNALISTS on your show :)

Aha- he answered my question, who exactly IS the “deep state” and he named all the players, wow

I'm impressed that you have Chris Hedges on your show. Next, get Noam Chomsky and pinnacle achieved. Also, congrats on getting 150K subscribers, which will probably happen momentarily.

Kudos for having a real journalist on your show!

[wasy]

Please have Chris on more often -- I value his analysis.

[treewalker]

DANG! He said it! These are all thoughts I have had myself but never expected to hear in the media. Please keep interviewing him!

[fairdose]

Chris Hedges is awesome and probably Chomsky's intellectual heir. Please have him on more often.

Chris Hedges + Krystal + Saagar! Triple treat!

[thomasmurphy]

Chris hedges is one of the best commentators and journalists out there, need more guests like this!!

[ThomasRSkillman]

Thank you having this great journalist, whom will never be seen on MSM.
RT America and Al Jeezera are the only other fairly known shows that will have him.
We definitely need more exposure of what goes on behind the curtain.

[patrickotshumbe]

Excellent analysis by non other than Mr Chris Hedges

[EuriEuropa]

So refreshing to hear some truths about impeachment

[definitiveentertainment]

PLEASE have Chris Hedges on as much as possible.

This man is able to vocalize the American experience in a way that is both a cadenced narrative, and a historically accurate display of sheer fact.

Dude’s a phenomenal journalist and orator.

Yeah so when it's Jimmy Dore it's a conspiracy theory and when it's Chris Hedges it's fine. Right Sam Seder?

[troutstalker]

Impeachment trials = one big American reality show.

[luddity]

I'm always so impressed when you can get real quality guests like Chris Hedges on your show instead of the usual assortment of DC establishment tools. More of this please!
