    The 47th?
    Please tell me you will be doing this again. I don’t think I can make it through the next 4 years without your insights!

    Pitiful
    Loved Undisclosed and thought this would be a good podcast to listen to. Title needs to be changed to Hatred towards the 45th. Why all the Republican bashing?

    All great things must end.
    I’m sad that I won’t get to listen to Susan and Rabia banter about the latest trump fiasco but also relieved that they no longer have this to talk about!

    Sorry
    I loved you to in undisclosed. I am disappointed in this I was hoping for an unbiased not a Trump bashing podcast.

    Vaccine
    I just received my vaccine today and it literally came down to the minutes before the vaccine expired. They first gave the vaccine to the nursing home and whatever left over the pharmacist and techs received it and called around to the other pharmacist and techs in the area to get the rest before it expired. The process and procedure takes along time filling out forms and processing it in the system and administering it to the ppl. I’m a tech and they need more ppl to administer it so I’m actually taking a class next week for it to help it move it around faster.

    Yet Again calling Republicans Losers.
    Well I didn’t even have to listen to realize this would be total blatant disregard for truth. Just read all the reviews, don’t need another left wing bs podcast.
  • Scooter_Pie_
    You all did it!
    I’ve been following Rabia since the first episode of Undisclosed, bought the book and donated to Adnan’s defense fund, I’m so happy for the 45th podcast, you stuck it out through the bleakest period in politics in my 62 years and now we’re back on track with Joe and Kamala, thanks for being here every step of the way now go get some much needed rest! I’m a fan. Scott

    Thought this was good, then came the Coronavirus quakery
    I was listening to the most recent episode of The 45th podcast, and one of the hosts started talking about how cooking your food in copper pots was totally going to kill Coronavirus or something, and how touching copper handrails in museums is actually good for you—and I had to just delete them from my feed. There is no time for broadcasting un-scientific quackery right now. And shame on the other host for just going along with it.

    Are you all still there? Really love your podcast. Very informative. But haven’t been posting as consistently as y’all used to.
  • stumbleine9
    please, susan. learn some manners.
    i always appreciate the analysis of everyone, but it is so frustrating to hear susan simpson interrupt and talk over every one else. i get that she disagrees with the other hosts, but does she have to drown everyone else out?
  • BT224
    Susan should learn to listen
    It was great when they had opposing points of view. Now it's just Susan talking over everyone else. It gets old.
  • eeemmmbbbb
    Ugh - my ears hurt
    I just recently tried this podcast and quickly realized why it was that I stopped listending to Undisclosed. Susan's voice and delivery are just grating. Awful and unprofessional sounding.
  • barnery blah
    Speed talker
    The topics are great but It’s hard for me to listen to an entire episode because of Susan. She talks so fast, it’s hard to keep up with what she’s saying. She sounds like she’s trying to say as much as possible whenever she speaks.
  • dogstar2072
    Just a typical Liberal Trump bash.
    Rabia and Susanne continue to prove their blatant incompetence of the US Constitution and past policy precedence. They give Obama and Clinton passes for what they call Trump a racist for. They are good lawyers but should remove themselves from political discussion. I’m not even a Trump supporter but this is sickening.
  • Lancypants
    Love your podcast!
    You guys shouldn’t let mentally incompetent guests from sharing their il informed ideas and opinions IE Sarah. I won’t listen to anymore episodes with that guest.

    No more Siraj
    I love this podcast, the banter between Rabia, Susan, Waj, and others. But I’ve stopped listening to any episode with Siraj. It’s not that I’m not willing to listen to a different perspective, it’s that his arguments are often unintelligent and very underdeveloped. It’s painful and not good listening.
  • Very_Epic
    Great but Siraj is clueless
    I love this podcast except when Siraj is on. He doesn’t seem to do any research, doesn’t seem to know what he’s talking about (doesn’t understand how tariffs work, separation of powers, how congressional investigations are different from criminal prosecutions - all from one episode) and takes positions based on misinformation he’s picked up from who knows where that your average 4th grader should be able to spot. I’m not sure if it’s laziness/failure to think through the issues or prep in advance or if he’s just not that smart, but the podcast is better when he’s not on.
  • Krispix318
    Love it except Siraj
    This is one of a handful of podcasts I listen to each week and, for the most part, love it. But GOOD LORD Siraj is insufferable. I feel like Rabia keeps him in check but I find him to be incredibly condescending to Susan when Rabia isn’t on. In my opinion, most of us tune in to get caught up on current events, not to listen to circular arguing. I won’t be listening to any more episodes with Siraj unless Rabia is cohosting
  • Irene3787
    Good content when Susan isn't arguing
    I actually really enjoy this podcast for the content. It keeps me very knowledgeable on world events, and I enjoy staying engaged and learning from all of the people on here. It's even introduced me to several podcasts and other forms of media I love. One thing that really kills my enjoyment of the podcast is Susan's constant need to argue with EVERYONE. Even those who agree with her, like Rabia or Waj. She has to one up them on everything; anytime anyone else makes a statement or has an opinion, she argues with them about 1) why it's worse than what they're claiming 2) why its not as bad as what they're claiming or 3) why they're interpreting the entire wrong. She knows more than everyone about every subject so there's no room for anything different. She certainly does not allow any opposing viewpoints from Siraj. It's very frustrating and I wish she would back off a bit.

    Slow down!!!!!
    Slow down your speaking...your words slur together and you’re incredibly hard to understand. Thanks!
  • podlover 459
    Not good
    All one sided bias and by the way adnan is definitely guilty and will spend the rest of his life in prison
  • Trg lover
    Horrible
    Worst pod ever host are losers
  • Chopper Machias
    Tripe for fools
    Strange times we are living in.. This podcast, these people, have lost the plot.
  • renhal1
    Left Wing BS
    As usual the left can’t handle loosing
  • Mudfish620
    You had me at Rabia
    Haven’t listened to a single episode yet, but I’m sold already because of her work on the Undisclosed podcast.
  • anonymous3677478
    Pot calling kettle black
    The host of the 45th podcast talks about the hatred spouted by Trump, but then she herself gets blocked from Twitter for telling someone ‘to go stab yourself’. Even if it was said in jest, it was not appropriate. She should have listened to Michelle Obama when she says, ‘when they go low, we go high’. I’ve since unsubscribed to this podcast since I cannot tolerate hypocrisy
  • Deplorable Deb
    Terrible
    Really? Rabia and Susan are not following what they preach on their Undisclosed podcast. I love the Undisclosed podcast. On this one, you are just repeating the same old lies of the MSM by journalists that go for sensationalism based on heresay. Ever notice how these TV news shows repeat the same thing. They are all controlled by corporations and deep state people. You are in for a surprise ... the investigations will turn up the crimes of the Clintons and others, not Trump! By the way, Trumps misspellings and mis-capitalizations are clues for his "Q" followers.
  • RodeGlide05
    Unintelligible at times
    Susan talks so fast, at times, she is unintelligible!
  • JNC1435
    Chit chat is distracting and unprofessional
    Can’t stand to listen to professionals chit chat about their weekends etc. i want to hear professional reporting and just the reporting.
  • GumshoeAndy
    Hmmm
    An anti-Dolt45 podcast by the lawyer hero badasses from Undisclosed? I am your target audience. I expected maybe more legal insight, but honestly was pretty happy just to hear my podcast heroes think out loud about our current predicament. Woulda been 4 stars but I unsubscribed and am honestly sad to hear that Susan didn’t vote. No need to listen to political pontificating from someone who doesn’t do the bare minimum of participation in our flawed democracy. No matter how busy with other great work - you vote. Can’t even listen to Undisclosed anymore.
  • pstucson
    Rabia does no preparation for any of these shows
    I wanted to like this podcast... but Rabia does what appears to be zero research before each episode. Try and count the number of times she says “I didn’t read this but” or “I don’t know why but” and then has a long uninformed opinion. So lazy.
  • trooney07
    😔
    I could write a huge review on all of the faults of this podcast, but it’s as simple as this: if you want to get enraged about Trump hate and fully leftist propaganda, this is perfect for you. No research required, right? It’s sad, really. I miss the Rabia and Susan of UD S1.
  • Amandaleepea
    LOVE!
    Susan and Rabia are my dream team! Whenever some new Trumpster Fire is lit, I cannot wait to hear their take on it! And seriously, how do they do it?! How do they possibly keep up with all of the craziness?? You two are my s-heros!
  • meskew60inNC
    Love this!
    This podcast helps me get my arms around all the crazy every week in this current orange administration. Thanks!
  • Jlives145943?$42?$6
    Biased & Correct
    If you love Donald Trump and cannot accept the idea he has faults, or the larger system has significant issues, this podcast is NOT for you. However, if you’re able to reason, have trouble keeping up with the insanity of daily news, and worry about corruption...please listen! Support the hosts, they have history in making impacts in our criminal justice system. Ironic?
  • WBaltMd
    Please No More Siraj
    I love this podcast. But I can’t stand episodes with Siraj any longer. It would be a stronger program without him. He makes me cringe. He’s so condescending to Rabia. He acts as if he knows more about law than Susan. I get excited every time a new episode is released but Siraj’s lethargic conceited, mansplaining has forced me to tune out. He doesn’t even allow room for debate. He just whines and tries to make the female hosts seem hysterical. He’s a jerk a brat and his voice isn’t great for radio.
  • Sandiegoamc
    Siraj.... drink a Red Bull!
    Hey 45th love the pod and the content but please never let Siraj be a co-host ever again. I have to ask, is he at all interested in the discussion? Does he have any interest in the show’s topic? Did he just wake up? He comes off as an annoyed teenager having to talk to his parents about his day at school. I left your most recent episode because I became tired of Siraj’s slow pace and drab style. Siraj, this is a pod about issues you, your fellow hosts, and we, your subscribers, are interested. GET EXITED! GET ANIMATED! To be perfectly honest, Siraj comes off high/baked during the pod, and therefore his possibly tainted commentary is bland, dull, and uninspiring. Be better than that 45th and stick to your roots. What you two ladies produce is important, relevant, insightful, and educational. Keep being you, yet consider another more engaging co-host other than Siraj.
  • poetlife
    Great
    Love this podcast. Siraj is great new addition to the show and I like his insight better than previous guest hosts.
  • GoofTrooper
    Allegedly balanced political conversation.
    Tuned in hoping for an honest balanced political conversation between a democrat, a republican, and a middle of the road moderate. I’ve listened to a few episodes and feel deceived. I would sum it up as CNN level we hate Trump no matter what he does. 1 Far left liberal, 1 further left liberal, and 1 somewhat moderate liberal democrat having a round table discussion on how terrible our president is. It really is too bad because I am a fan of their prior podcast work. Update... A few months later I gave it another listen and the show has actually gone even heavier on the bias.
  • Seanthekid
    Love this podcast
    I think this podcast is great, I love tuning in every week.
  • Ultimate One
    My Favorite Podcast!
    I anxiously await the new episode each week. Rabia & Susan are extremely bright, articulate, and well versed on the crazy state our country is in. They include excellent guests and co-hosts. Keep up the great work ladies. We need you to bring these issues forward!
  • Kallie007
    Love this!
    If you're a fan of Undisclosed, listen to The 45th!
  • H13.13.13
    A great podcast to keep caught up
    There’s so much happening all the time with this administration, and it can be hard to keep up. I appreciate the recaps as well as deeper dives into the pressing issues surrounding 45th president.
  • hethro1
    Love them
    Susan and Rabia are always entertaining and always bring great guests or thoroughly researched information. They are liberal, but it’s much less of a right/left podcast than it is about informing us about things going on in the presidency.
  • Atlanta Rose
    Very informative
    This show cuts through the weeds and gets to the trees. They really break it down.
  • AlexisCEC
    How could you not love anything theses women do
    I love Rabia, Susan and the various cohosts they have on each week. It is helpful to have these two break down current events with their points of view! They give great insight to go deeper or provide a different perception than some of the other political podcasts I listen to
  • Drudown666
    Great conversations!!
    I’ve been a fan of both these ladies every since I found undisclosed podcast. Thank you all that you do!!
  • az 88
    POTUS’s SCOTUS
    Please invite Siraj Hashmi as a guest more often. He is balanced in his views and speaks clearly as Susan Simpson does not. Susan speaks as if she has marbles in her mouth and way too fast. Love Rabia voice.
  • starkiller585
    0 stars😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡👎🏻
    If I could give this 0 stars I would. I don’t usually write reviews but this podcast is so leftist and full of trump haters I just had to warn anyone who isn’t a complete leftist to steer clear of this podcast. I don’t agree with trump as a person (he’s a pretty bad person) but as a president he is great. But this podcast just wants this once great country to become even more ungodly and demoralized. It’s even more bias the CNN.
