034: The Man Who's Constantly Wrong feat. Luke Savage

Luke Savage, a writer and political analyst who has written for outlets like Jacobin and The New Statesman, joined the show to talk about none other than Matt “Matty” Yglesias, the influential, centrist pundit with a habit of getting things wrong. Matty also changes his opinions–sometimes abruptly. The “leftist hater brigade” also discussed the current state of liberal punditry and why it feels like we’re being forced back into the blogosphere days of the aughts.
