California voted for independent map drawing and then we put it in our state constitution. You can't undo the state constitution with the flick of a pen. Other blue states can redo their maps. Ca cannot. SORRY

“News with swearing.” Love it, and would recommend wholeheartedly!

You have proven yourself to be quite an amazing leader Allison along with your wonderful cohost Dana. You two are beautiful, strong, and truthful. The best combination. I loved the kitchen table days and the cohosts but fabulous now. Love the podcast.

Latest episode (Tuesday, 07/22 release): During this segment, Dana mentioned that there probably some good ICE agents (indirect quote). I would like to clarify that, in fact, there are ZERO good ICE agents. They simply do not exist, and I wanted to make note for the record^^ I appreciate y’all, as well as some independent media. Thank you for what you do.

Your comprehensive coverage of the day’s political stories, delivered with appropriate colorful language and grounding humor, is the best thing to start each morning. Love this podcast so very much!! Thank you.

Love the show content. Please don’t breathe directly into the microphone

My go-to each weekday morning to get a great news summary and hear about resisting the current insanity in the executive branch and Congress. Every part of this podcast is better than doomscrolling with Good Trouble ideas and hosts/guest who make the sad state of the country understandable.

I’m a daily listener to The Daily Beans. I start every day with it, just the right combination of news, good news, good trouble, and humor. Thank you, Alison and Dana, you help keep me sane in this crazy world.

I love listening to the Beans every day. Once you try it, you’ll be hooked. It’s well sourced and delivered as gently as possible with appropriate outrage and swearing, and some “micro dosing of hope”. They do a great job and post links to articles and and daily good trouble options. 👍💙😊

All that and some choice vocabulary, future-forward-ideas, and HOPE!

It’s simply indispensable!

I wake up and get ready for work while listening to AG, Dana, and various guests! I made huge online content cutbacks this year but The Beans Remains!

The only thing wrong with this podcast is it is only on 5 days a week. So on Sunday I listen to Unjustified. Their daily news is timely, aligned with my values and covered with heart. Also swearing.

The Daily Beans keeps me informed on what’s happening without giving me the “scaries”. While the news isn’t always ideal, i feel empowered by the end of each episode. Allison & Dana, THANK YOU for all you do!

This is a must listen to if you are interested in all that’s going on politically . Has great points & interesting conversations & legal discussions with facts & some humor at times I listen all the time . A fav show

This is how to stay engaged without destroying your mental health. We get the bad news, but it feels like we’re part of a team. The Good Trouble section is my new favorite. Small acts of rebellion build morale in a fight, and help us fight to keep our democracy. 👍👍

This is the first thing insistent I every day. The MSW team delivers the news in a way where we get all the facts but there’s some measure of hope involved!

I think maga should stand for “make.America.gay.again” because gay is good

Perfect listen to start my day. Informative and relaxed, great news, and keeping up with the courts and the law.

I started listening a few weeks after the Nov 2025 election. I had stopped listening to most of my podcasts after the results of that election but saw a mention of The Daily Beans on BlueSky. Now I can’t start my day without listening. Thanks for this community.

My new favorite podcast. Well done, glad I found it.

Love this show. Wish I would’ve found it sooner.

The felon and pedo

Looking forward to one day sharing my Good News. I have plenty! Absolutely love the show, the community, and the swearing 🔥🔥

Allison and Dana are amazing at what they do. I love their passion and they help me get through these difficult times. Love them!!!

My favorite sweary show on the waves. I consider it a mandatory listen - l need my coffee and I need my Beans! Love this crew!

They brighten my day even with the bad news because of the curse words or the mispronounced words (I do it all the time). They always make me laugh in the end!!

I saw the changed logo and thought it looks great! The rainbow colors, then it hit me, oh yeah it’s June and Pride month! Duh! 🤪 🤓🥳

Your silence is reprehensible.

Yes it is sad that the House has advanced “the big beautiful bill”! But what I’m most afraid of is that those who voted these people into office are blind to this rolling catastrophe and will send them back in 2026. WAKE UP AMPERICA! This can be our PAST!

AG -I must admit, I went to see ShaNaNa in concert - they opened for the Osmonds back in the 70’s Having John Bauman on today was exceptional! Thanks for good information & laughs

I wish AG was around when I had an issue when I was a federal employee. Most importantly she is genuine in her beliefs. Much respect AG from a former moderate Republican.

This podcast is so informative and interesting. The truth must come out and you ladies bring it! Thank you for the insight and the call to action! Love y’all.

Rachel Feldman interview was truly informative and inspiring.

Hosts spend a lot of time self aggrandizing and name dropping. I get it… it’s cool to people political celebrity, now can you get back to the news? We already loose half the run time to fan mail… which is just more self filation… I miss when beans had fire. An I’ve never been able to make common ground on Gaza. If AG still can’t see how Ukraine, and Palestine are both nations under attack by a hostile force. It’s too late for this show. She’s no better then the people she claims to hate.

I listen every morning to get my first jolt of news for the day. I love how AG & Dana present very tough stories with compassion & the appropriate sprinkling of humor. If we could not laugh about the madness we would never get out of bed until 2029.

As bad as it all is, AG and DG distill it every day.

This podcast has become part of my routine. Thank so much for your reporting

AG’s podcasts have kept me sane in recent years and were my main source of all things Trump and fascism. I’m happy that Allison has built the following she has, she’s worked hard and provided valuable insight into this administration. That being said, I’m don’t with this podcast and its host after she attacked me on Bluesky for pointing out that she posted a broken link to an event she was performing at. It was such a minor interaction, I don’t understand why she had to make it personal. So I’ve since unsubscribed from all of her podcasts and her Patreon. It’s sad to see that her level of success has gone straight to her head, which I’ve noticed in her content recently but chose to overlook it until she brought it to my doorstep. 🙃

Watch the movie Conclave- excellent and will show you the re- Pope-ing procedure- RIP Pope Francis

News delivered the way it should be delivered. I can’t start my day without them.

I never paid for a podcast before. My bank thought the charge was fraud.

News with appropriate levels of swearing?? Yes please! AG and DG are delightfully funny, hopeful, and I love the good trouble we get into!

Love the daily news recaps. Humor, humility, and humanism makes this podcast one of my top daily listens. Keep up the outstanding work AG & DG and all of your guests!

Thank you Daily Beans for your amazing podcast!

Thank you for your factual, educational, yet somehow still hilarious podcast…it means so much to all of us listening. YOU HAVE NO IDEA❤️‍🩹 we thank you so!!! Highly recommend this one!!

This was a shockingly shallow and rediculous podcast... I thought I'd give it a chance as a moderate, but quickly was shocked at the content... especially discussing "who would pick a fight with AOC or Crockett".... thank God I only wasted 15 minutes on this garbage.... unreal

They’re such a good spot in the day everyday. They are honest and always so gracious when they get corrected. No one’s perfect but they’re the best kind of imperfect ❤️

And have a few (actually many) laughs along the way!

Love these ladies! Keep up the good work! Love the balance this podcast provides in such a chaotic world. They are literally my saving grace !!
