The McLaughlin Group

Not sure if this is ever discussed on here but John McLaughlin is phenomenal. Does anyone watch? He's funny as hell, very smart and he let's his group speak.
He's an interesting guy to, a former speech writer for Nixon, longtime Pat Buchanan friend ( who got him the job) as well as a former Jesuit priest.
I've watched him forever and really was just thinking how old he is looking but since he's late 80's I guess that's to be expected.
If you don't watch I recommend it. Old school discussions from both sides without melting down into name calling. True discussion which is what the hell this polarized country needs really bad right now.

I haven't watched in a while but I like McLaughlin. Very funny delivery.

He was a Jesuit Priest before he was a talk show host. Just FYI

Do people even watch that show anymore?
It was relevant about 25 years ago not so much
these days.

I still watch it every week
RCP usually has the latest episode in the video section.
Mort, Pat and Ellen are the regulars with 1 guess each week

Long-time fan, although I haven't watched it for a while. Probably the most succinct debate show still around. But, Eleanor is entirely too predictable. She just spouts DNC talking points. My favorite exclamation of hers was soon after the ACA passed, she proudly proclaimed that, "If federal dollars are paying for your health care, then the government has the right to tell you how to live!" Telling.

Dana Carvey and SNL used to do send-ups of that show that were hilarious.
Most people don't know that McLaughlin was once a Jesuit priest.

There is a podcast called Left, Right, and Center that I find to be really civilized and interesting and really just a breath of fresh air from the usual talking head BS.
Just in case someone was looking for something new to digest.

I used to date someone who was one of the producers of the show. She had some stories. Suffice to say, he wasn't very nice to the staff.

Haven't watched it in a long time but grew up watching it with my Dad.
