Sibling Talk—News and Politics from a Progressive Point of View
John Paulett·Hosted by Mary Jo Toumert and John Paulett·680 episodes
Commentary about the news from Mary Jo Toumert and John Paulett. Ok, we will admit it. We are liberals, but we make a lot of sense. And we are brother and sister.
Why listen
Sibling Talk is a short, plainspoken politics show built around the natural back-and-forth of a brother and sister processing the news together. John Paulett and Mary Jo Toumert bring a clearly progressive point of view to U.S. politics, courts, elections, Trump-era controversies, and culture-war stories without turning the format into a formal panel show. It is a good fit for listeners who want liberal commentary in quick, conversational episodes rather than a heavily produced news program.
