Great show. Can be depressing and sometimes will take a little break as politics gets 😵‍💫 Brandi is highly intelligent and a talented interviewer.

Brandi…. what a great interview! I especially loved the candidates comment about people not going into their bubble. That is so true about things that are going on note with people. I feel he will make a great superintendent, although it will be sad to lose him as a teacher. The kids who have him are very, very lucky. Thank you!

Brandi is one of the rare journalists in the PNW. I lost my respect for her when she asked the question what was the worst thing that happened with the Covid lockdowns. Her answer was difficult with her renovation. Mine a wife that lost her 35 year career as a NICU nurse and not seeing my family in Canada for 3 years for not taking the jab. She also believes the 2020 election was the safest most secure election in history

I love Brandi’s approach to common sense and calling out members of our government (and Kroger’s) for failing to do what’s right. Keep it up Brandi!

You’re everything a reporter and journalist should be! Thank you for doing a great job! We need more like you and your team!

When Dori passed I truly wondered who would fill that void in the NW and you have. He would be so proud of the work you and Nicole are putting into this program. Nobody can replace him but you are as close as anyone will ever be.

If you like listening to someone who repeats themselves ad nauseam and continually tells you how to be offended at every turn you’ve found your podcast. This is about 90% of the content. It’s tough to get through the weeds to the 10% relevant content.

So glad to find you. So sorry for your loss. Miss Dori and glad to have found you! Been praying for you and hope you’re doing well.

I love and appreciate Brandi’s impeccable investigative reporting! Thank you for providing such important information and ways I can make my voice heard! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

We have followed Brandi’s move from a corporate media outlet to full independent journalist/opinion reporter. While not an actual in the streets reporter, her research and insight is far more journalistic than 90% of the media assets in the field. I appreciate her common sense opinion pieces. One doesn’t have to agree on every issue for that.

More people need to listen to what you are saying on this podcast. Thank you for shouting it from the mountain tops Dovahkiin. Let your voice be heard!

I look forward to each and every episode Brandi puts out. I am a faithful subscriber and will continue to support Brandi's mission to bring common sense a comeback. I enjoy her humor and her relatability and accessibility to her listeners.

Brandi is a rarity—intellectually honest! When she sits in for Dori….sorry Dori….I actually like her better…. Thank you Brandi. Rudi Seattle

Loved watching Brandi on TV with her unbiased approach to put aside politics and now she is even better. Great Job!!

I found this podcast via KOMO news 1000, absolutely love it! We need more of these reasonable viewpoints instead of the fringe groups that are out there. Keep up the great work, Brandi!

Magnficent. This is the breath of fresh political air that our hyper-polarized community needed. Thank you for all you do.

I just listened to your April 5th podcast, and your message regarding police and crime was incredibly profound. I appreciate your pursuit for the truth and sharing it openly. Thank you Brandi, for your courage and your common sense. This city, state, and country needs more of both.

The Elon praise is so unbelievably bad. Her fangirling over a billionaire techno fascist is astonishingly on-brand.

My husband and I watched Brandi on her show The Divide and absolutely loved her coverage of Washington’s politics. Love that she’s gone independent so as not to tow any pre written script or dictum. Keep up the good work, Brandi! You’re restoring my faith that there’s good journalists still out there.

We need more people like you.You should run for Congress it would make this world a lot better place.We need smart & talented people like.

Thank you Brandi for creating this podcast! I am looking forward to your journalism skills to shine on Washington state. I was instantly inspired by your comment on “people before party” in your first episode, your comment to common sense, and what I hope will be an inspiration to all journalists. Keep it up, you’re awesome!

Brandi stands with common sense and is a true journalist (few and far between these days).

Brandi was one of the few local (PNW) commentators I have ever cared to listen to and I am glad she has made the leap of faith to go independent. Her views on the news of the day is refreshingly level-headed and she does not tow the corporate or party lines.

Refreshingly honest and fair reporter/commentator in a part of America where reason and the free discourse of ideas typically falls prey to fringe partisanship.

Brandi always finds such a good mix of laughable and serious news to report! I love her choice of topics, and the people she brings on to interview are always people I’m interested in hearing from.

I’ve never written a podcast review but this is worth it to me :) I was sad to see her gone from tv but then I found her podcast and now I’m even more excited! I’m just a normal Olympia 90s girl who doesn’t get to much into politics but I love and trust Brandy to give me the facts and fills me in on what I need to know! Thank you Brandy for everything you do for us!

I've been listening to Brandi for years, knowing she'll present the unvarnished facts. One thing I've noticed after all these years, I still don't know if Brandi is a Democrat or a Republican, and I like that; a true journalist.

Brandi brings the excellent insight and perspective to the top issues of the day, like she always did when she was at Fox13 Seattle. Now that she has gone independent, you get to see more of personality and a sprinkling of her opinion. Highly suggest popping a bottle of Sparkling Rosé and subscribing to this podcast

Refreshing podcast in the era of political echo chambers. Brandi is clearly devoted to the truth of issues rather than playing the tired media spin game.
