The Weeds

An excellent podcast for people who want to know how politics really works and want to through off the yoke of wall-to-wall, it-bleeds-it-leads 24-hour news cycle, hosted by three brilliant political commentators. Matthew Yglesias, Ezra Klein and Sarah Kliff are sharp and savvy combining barroom honesty with academic-quality dissections of the important forces shaping American politics. My new favorite podcast.
