I enjoy listening to the Podcast. Andy is undoubtedly very knowledgeable about the law. However, PLEASE STOP SAYING, “INCOMPARABLE SARAH SCHUTTE” at the end of the show. Do you have to stroke her ego every time? Good grief! It’s so annoying.

Inexplicably, Alan Dershowitz is far more balanced in his view of the legal cases involving Trump than McCarthy. I do not expect NR to get over their Trump derangement. However, it’s ridiculous that a lifetime liberal does more moderated coverage than this. Sorry Rich, I can’t forget how bad this is. Also, Noah is the worst with Andy, and acts like a co-host. Nobody cares about Noah’s faux legal opinions.

For the love of god! These dudes still talk as is Trump hasn’t done anything wrong & everything is being done to him is for no good reason. It’s weird.

Andy is great!!

Very interesting and informative, explained for everyone.

Andy is a hack who dresses himself up as an intellectual conservative. At the end of the day he is just as prone to falsehoods, half truths and out and out, lies as any right wing outlet. Don’t let him fool you he is disingenuous and a liar Every criticism of Jack Smith’s conduct with regard to the Trump indictment from what is mentioned in the indictment to the press conference. He gave to his efforts to seek a protective order is the exact same conduct that US attorneys engaging in every single high profile case in this country. And Rich chooses to be critical of it. I would love for just once. To actually have the coverage. Courage of his conviction, and make the statements when they affect every day people and not

Thank you Andy. You’re the first person I’ve heard point out decision not to charge Biden in DC.

I love Andy, but he’s wrong on the polls. Biden has been in the same range for a long time. Trump has gained (see RCP average history)

Andy certainly is insightful. But as our nation careens toward open lawfare and a loss of judicial impartiality, Andy just says “this will be interesting”. This is our country man! Did you know you live here? Do you care? This isn’t a bad flag in a football game, this undermines the pillars of our nation. The will of the people. And also this is why people hate lawyers. Most would argue lies for money. Andy does it because he thinks it’s interesting.

McCarthy used to sound reasonable and fair, even if I sometimes didn’t agree, I felt he was logical. I don’t know what happened to him but he has lost the plot. “I’m not trying to excuse January 6th…” and then he proceeds to try and excuse the insurrection that was attempted on January 6th. I guess everything that Trump touches really does die.

Always enlightening to hear Andy’s analysis

I hoped to find that here but there’s nothing sober-minded or thoughtful about such blindly biased propaganda.

Take a look at Tucker Carlson’s recent interview of Mike Benz. Looks like someone you would be interested in interviewing on your podcast. I am still trying to digest the evolution of the censorship consortium that was detailed. Would value your legal analysis and thoughts on whether this is even possible.

Love Andrew. Always learn something and he goes into detail like no other. I often listen to episodes 2 times to get everything out of it.

So good to have the legal opinion of Andrew McCarthy on anything. Thank you both for this show.

Love listening to Andrew McCarthy!! He explains everything so thoroughly.

I expected authentic analysis of politics and national security. What I’m hearing is avoiding the facts and finding humor in very dangerous subjects. When are you analyzing the risks to our democracy. As a moderate conservative, I’m concerned. Hope the country can wake up before it too late. We have a weak Dem candidate and a wannabe dictator leading the MAGAS, these are not republicans or conservatives. Just power hungry theocrats. What say you?

Andy and I are at last on the same page. It feels marvelous. Do not see the movie *Killers of the Flower Moon*. I did. Read the book instead.

Please. It’s horrible and in general music is pretty bad. It’s horrible. I like you guys here and there. Lately been pretty weak. The editors podcast is trash. You need to please focus. I know you all are so in love with yourself you can just spit ball but actually it’s pretty insulting to the audience that you don’t prepare and think you’re so brilliant you can jsut say whatever. You should be embarrassed. Megyn Kelly wouldn’t even dream of ever going on air with your lack of prep. She runs circles around all of you. Strive to be even 1/1000 of her integrity as a journalist

McCarthy espouses that all western countries might as well give up to the Muslims. That’s been the U. K.’s approach with the result that they’re afraid of them. Easy solution: deport all non citizens and any that don’t assimilate or support Islamic terror groups. Only one in three Londoners are Caucasian! It’s now or there will be great slaughter on day

Is there anyone better than Andy at dissecting the good, the bad, and the ugly of our politics?

I enjoy the opinions and learn when I listen.

Not objective & certainly aren’t using all the facts.

Andy McCarthy is second to none!

Andy’s great but Rich laughing at these obvious crimes is very troubling. There is nothing funny about this corruption. He’s showing he is out of touch with just how angry people are about all of this.

Excellent analysis but couldn’t the Georgia governor pardon Trump? Trump better be nice to Kemp!

Love hearing Noah on this show.

I stopped listening to most of the NR podcasts a while ago for a variety of reasons, but I still listen to The McCarthy Report because Andy McCarthy actually knows what he’s talking about. Better still, he can make the arcana of the law comprehensible to non-lawyers (I’m one.). Today’s episode (#225) was unbelievable yet so sadly believable. It made clear that corruption at the level of our national government is so pervasive and longstanding, especially among the top Democrats and their various enablers in the media and the federal bureaucracy, that our republic is effectively gone. Andy recapped for Rich how the Justice Department slow-walked their multi-year investigation of Hunter Biden as a means to allow various applicable statutes of limitations to pass without indictment. He further outlined how Hunter’s diabolical, dimwitted and now demented father engaged in longstanding and repeated behavior prohibited by a multitude of federal ethics and conflict of interest regulations. And finally, he outlined how millions of dollars flowed to the son, and to other Bidens, for the “insurance” provided by their proximity to the Big Guy. In short, Andy outlined in his typically calm and collected manner corruption on an epic scale that makes Teapot Dome (remember that) pale in comparison. In response, Rich Lowry (who seems like a nice enough guy) said, “well, that’s all the time we have.” Is there anything sufficiently egregious that it would prompt Rich and NR to say, “Enough!!?” Apparently not. This in a nutshell, though the podcast is fantastic, illustrates how the folks at NR have otherwise made themselves so completely irrelevant. They see and understand the corruption, but they do nothing but sign off until next time.

Very good, highly recommend

For your own gain you gaslight listeners. I am insulted.

Hope you are having a wonderful time this summer but hope you will be back with more insightful commentary on the days political and legal events!

Hands-down, this pod is the most sound resource for objective analysis of the many issues which, these days, end up being addressed through legal process. McCarthy’s experience, attention to detail and incisive mind combine to provide an essential guide to anyone who wants to understand not only the legalities but, often, the politics behind government legal actions and court decisions.

Andy breaks down high profile cases, including political and politicized investigations and prosecutions with more dispassion and wisdom of experience than anyone else out there.

I love the podcast but cringe at the same “incomparable”, “indeed glowing” (might I add) “gushing” opening and closing script read exactly verbatim by Rich Lowry on every single podcast. Ugh. Can’t y’all be a bit more impromptu or contemporaneous? Seems lazy for such an otherwise great podcast.

Andy is the best! A real straight shooter giving clear eyed analysis on all legal issues. He has a way of boiling down the most complex situations into plain English that the lay person can understand. I actually wish he would do at least one other episode each week. Inevitably something happens during the week that I wish I could hear Andy break down. I watch him on TV sometimes but the longer form podcast is my favorite. Bravo!

It’s cringeworthy listening to these guys stumble their way through their interpretation of any law they think might nail someone in the Trump World. It’s like listening to an estrogen free Rob Reiner in an echo chamber.

Andy, I really appreciate the fact that forthrightly admit when you’ve been wrong, and explain in detail how you’ve been wrong, as with the politicization of the Justice Department under Attorney General Garland.

McCarthy provides detailed, nuanced explanations of complex news stories. Will greatly improve your understanding.

5 stars… this is 1 of 2 podcast I go to when trying to make sense of current legal/court updates.

Andy McCarthy explains legal matters in a forthright manner that laymen like me can understand. Rich Lowry is one of the best interviewers out there. He doesn’t talk over but asks the question—then listens.

Continues to be the best choice for understanding the current miasma of our politics. Andy & Rich unwind the details expertly & with good humor. Well done gentleman! === Andy McCarthy is an island of objectivity in a roiling sea of polarized opinions. Whatever the issue, his reviews are dependably informative, balanced and presented in a way that breaks down the complexities into accessible bits.

Andy McCarthy has a brilliant legal mind. The problem now is that in the era of Trump, even Andy is acting bizarre at times. You actually sound mad in episode 190 Andy. Breathe bro. I know he bashes some of your RINO buddies, but if you’re going to be the guy who calls balls and strikes….do it.

On many issues A. McCarthy is excellent particularly national security issues . On the NY AG civil suit in recent podcast he was disappointingly bad . He frequently expressly it evaluates it as a criminal case while mouthing the difference between civil and criminal procedures . He does not address specific factual misstatements . Muddles the discussion by claiming that Trump “ doing what every business does . “ Factual misstatements are different than different judgments on how GAAP principles apply. Seems beyond his expertise Made the good point that will take long time to reach conclusion .

Conscientious, nuanced and accurate legal analysis of public affairs with practical legal experience. Top notch.

Andy is obviously experienced as a former Assistant U.S. Attorney, but he’s also very intelligent and clear in his explanations of complex legal issues, especially about DOJ policy and procedures. He’s been correct in his predictions throughout the Trump Russia saga, far more often than so many of the hysterical commentators with Trump Derangement Syndrome.

As a retired 1811, I look forward to your Sharp and poignant analysis of all things WDC. Thanks for such a great podcast. Mike

Wow. I’m sad for you Andy.

I love listening to Andrew McCarthy. He’s fair minded and able to rise above politics for the sake of justice and what is true. So rare today. Listening to him relieves my mind of the offensive word salad tossing of common political hacks. ****The podcast loses one star due to poor quality audio!

Intellectually Honest Analysis Factual, straightforward, interesting

I’ve heard and read enough about Trump inciting a riot, being derelict in duty and worthy of impeachment. I’ve heard and read enough about the stench Trump emanates to McCarthy’s and Lowry’s noses. Trump needs to receive less attention, not run in 2024 and rant away on Truth Social. This podcast gets five stars when it keeps 100% focus on legal expertise and correct interpretation of the Constitution (count all the Pennsylvania votes?), thus the three star review and one less listener/reader.
