As an American, I come to you guys for quality analysis.

The “affirmative action of generational wealth” line is going to get a workout at political arguments for the foreseeable future.

[drumgoldie]

In my six decades of life this has been the first time I've tuned into a political convention. Totally inspiring! Kamala for Prez!

[Strikeforce-]

Ironic that RFK's whole premise for running was that voters don't like the two candidates because they're so old and unpopular and now he's endorsing the oldest and least popular candidate.

[Rocketboy]

As a citizen of the US, I come to this show for the well reasoned and well spoken outsider perspective.

An Aussie living in the US. So glad ABC is now posting on youtube. I've missed you guys. Good analysis done with humor. And after 4 days of the DNC convention, I just want to sing Freedom until election day. Thank God for Harris. We can breathe again.

[Strikeforce-]

During his border wall interview today Trump actually admitted that he lost the 2020 election.
Tomorrow he'll deny ever saying it.

[EL_Duderino]

Aussie Mates, I went from sad with Joe Biden to so happy with Kamala. It's like a weight off my shoulders.

[ticktock]

I can’t believe how invested i have been in this DNC Convention. I used to think these conventions were so silly.

[please-wake-up-now]

Kamala really commanded the stage, didn’t she? 🤩 I felt the energy through the screen! Lil Jon definitely added a fun twist to the serious moments too. Love how diverse this DNC was! 🎉

I DONT LIKE WHATS HAPPENING HERE! I had BIG plans on being depressed, angry and hateful. This Harris lady is making me ....FEEL GOOD! I said hello to strangers today! Dare I say I'm in a good WORST of all, a creepy thing happened to me... My mouth was kinda open, my teeth were showing and my lips were angled up....I asked my doctor what that deformation was...he called it "A SMILE!". I think I'm infected...with JOY!!

[GerardHammond]

Americans should watch this show. Smart non-biased, sane

[bigyote]

After last night, Trump is roadkill; maybe RFK can leave him in Central Park.

[Ninjaguiden]

Didn't Michelle also have that good zinger about Trump taking a 'black job' that he brought up in the Black Journalist interview?

[ElGordo]

Totally agree with Chaz's analysis of Michelle Obama's speech. Brilliant. Unfortunately, the best President the US will never have!

[WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

It's not just the USA that needs Harris, the world needs Harris.

[dearbronte]

Such a beautiful moment with Walz' son. And republican thought leaders turned it into a online pile on of bullies, saying the most hateful things about that lovely young man and his love for his dad.

[jesskdunn]

Well crafted speeches and well crafted convention. But also very well crafted episode gentlemen!! Great insight Chas and John, in a short period of time, pulling out the big picture and themes from a huge event with hours and hours of speeches. Very impressive :)

[morfawmforgham]

Very educative conversations . Fair and unbiased analysis . Kudos Guys

[Sonofabeach]

DNC was a wonderful cathartic event that was not only sadly needed by the U.S. but also the rest of the world…
Bravo, go Kamala, save us all from a sad second Trump term… 🙋🏽‍♂️
