Outstanding
Brilliant , thank you for distilling the chaos and reaching for evidence and for truth. Your show is extraordinary!
I mourn for the thousands of innocent people killed and the millions displaced as well.

hmm, putin plotting a fake assassination on orban for orban to get Hungarian voters to rally around him sounds exactly like butler.

Dishonesty obfuscated by legit bona fides
Lied about the economy under President Biden the same way Trump lies now. Did not call out his cognitive function. Lastly, failed to mention Israel once when analyzing the Iran war. Dishonesty by omission.

Way beyond getting old
I’m so sad to say this but I can’t take it anymore.
Listener/viewer for many years. Can’t keep listening to her saying the same thing 12 times before getting to the crux of the matter. We aren’t dumb! We get the point so just report the information already.
I suppose you want the emotional response but it’s insulting after listening to the longest runway in history. I can hardly listen anymore, please, please stop.

I listen just the first half
I can not hear anymore ANY senator or representative, it doesn’t matter the party or if I agree, I start feeling physically uncomfortable, it’s weird but it’s very real.
So I can hear the first part of this podcast when there’s none of that.
She can play what they argue before they vote, I’m fine, she can say what they actually vote for, I like that! She could, before she present an elected politician, as part of the presentation, read very fast, like a fast ad, say who donated money and how much, I’d love that very much.
MSNOW, do you want more audience? Do THAT, for all of them, all parties, it’d be groundbreaking, for once.

Why can’t Congress…
Just come out and say, what most Americans already can see with their own eyes. Trump is on Russias payroll. And so are the people around him.
We are tired of congress not calling this out.

Rachel Maddow is the Stephen Hawking of understanding our executive branch’s nonsense political theories. Will her cogent explanations help our Republican senators to stop focusing on the harmful SAVE act and to laser-focus on their job of stopping the Iran War?

Your government doesn’t want you to see this!
The Whitehouse is censoring this network because they tell the TRUTH! First amendment rights are being threatened by the regime(administration) in charge.

Thanks
I often wish I could go back in time and choose government for my career. Rachel is so knowledgeable and inspiring.

I'm out
When explaining the many corrupt reasons why the Trumps may have started a war with Iran she never once mentioned the massive influence of ISRAEL! Blatant bias. This was kind of a heartbreaking realization. I was a big fan. She was the last person I trusted at MSWhatever. I'm out. All my news will come from independent sources —journalists fired by main-street media.

Boldly reports the Truth
Grateful to Rachel Maddow for telling us the Truth & bringing the receipts

…
This one sided stuff is what passes for journalism these days? I’m cool with different viewpoints, but then call this a podcast by Rachel herself. Not a program by a major news outlet.

Love this show
Love Rachel. Have been watching for years. Just don’t understand why I’m getting MAGA propaganda on this podcast. WEIRD!

This is not the truth you’re looking for.
If you’re looking for balanced, unbiased, facts-based news, go somewhere else. If you want to have your leftist ideology affirmed, don’t go any further.

Rachel, you need to have your staff look at the laws being proposed and most likely passed in Florida. Race to the bottom. Might as well be tear up the constitution. Public schools being closed as fast as they can and education turned over to the private sector with virtually no oversight. Public protest turned into a crime. Law suits if you get an injection and you “think” it made you feel bad.

You Ask The Right Questions!
What ARE “leaders” doing to ensure the Democracy survives via fair and honest elections? In case anyone does not know this yet, he always tells you exactly what he plans to do … confesses his crimes before they happen.
I don’t care who has the majority via a handful of people, not speaking out is complicity on any elected official. Period. GROUP events are more powerful. Join the protests and publicize it greatly.
Some are putting themselves out there, but what are they now doing to stop this takeover of elections and likely control of election machines and ballots in maga states. No one should call them republicans or gop any more. They ALL vote for maga bills. I don’t think it hyperbolic to believe that they have software to help them win.
We all know that COMMUNICATIONS get to more rural states to ever counteract the false news. People are not hearing the real stories.
Everyone should protest. The numbers must continue to expand.

MSNow paid subscription
Why am I still getting ads when I’m a paid subscriber? What a rip off. Fix this please.

The Rachel Maddow Show
If Rachel is speaking, I’m listening.

Overcast support
I enjoy The Rachel Maddow Show and would happily pay for the ad-free MS NOW Premium version. Unfortunately, the subscription is locked to Apple Podcasts only, with no private RSS feed for third-party podcast apps like Overcast.
Many podcast listeners intentionally use apps like Overcast for their playback, accessibility, and queue features. I’m choosing not to subscribe—not because of the price or content, but because I can’t listen in my preferred app.
I hope MSNBC considers offering premium access via private RSS so paying listeners can use the podcast app of their choice.

I normally love your show…
No offense, but I don’t see your butt out there on line putting your life in danger. Yet you keep telling other Americans what they should or need to be doing. Their blood is on your hands. Shame, to you and all the other podcasters and YouTubers who continue to tell your fellow Americans to go out and do the work that you people do not do yourselves. These ice agents are unhinged and until our Congress gets their heads out of their asses, it is only going to get worse. So if another person gets shot and murdered. It is on you people for pushing them to go out there with their whistles and fight bullets.

Terrible batting average
Wanted to like RM but the fact is that she’s been wrong on every major issue. How she gets paid millions to be provably wrong all the time is what’s wrong with our society. She’s the lefts equivalent of Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens and now Megyn Kelly.

Strange Times
Proof that Rachel is on the right side of history? She was invited to the funeral of AMERICAN HERO Dick Cheney. Dick was obviously one of the good guys because he didn’t like Donald Trump. Hatred of the Donald covers a multitude of sins.

Loyal viewer Done with it
I refuse to watch Rachel Maddow shamelessly sell herself and her podcasts on her news show. I’ve watched her program for years. I won’t any more. Enough.

Your tax dollars!
It really bothers me when a journalist refers to government funds as “your tax dollars”. They should be saying “OUR” tax dollars. Unless of course, journalists don’t pay taxes. I like Rachel but I always hear this from her.

The arrogance of corporate media marketing: “MS NOW”
This is coming from a regular and willing consumer of your content, NOT a hater.
It’s extremely disingenuous and arrogant to make on-air talent tell viewers, in the same breath, “Big change is coming” and also that “The only change is to our name,” as if we will not notice the upcoming cash grab as it starts to happen (e.g., podcast offerings getting thinner and more paywall-dependent, as with the formerly two-hour episodes of Dateline: White House, and lower-quality advertisers with deeper pockets), and the almost-certain skewing of the network’s editorial viewpoint now that it’s no longer tied in any way to a reputable mainstream news organization (NBC News).
Nothing changing but our name? Not even Rachel, Nicolle or Lawrence believe that to be true … all of them have recently tried to temper it with a “Time will tell” or “Let’s find out together whet happens next” kind of statement on the change.
You’d better hope this works, “network formerly tied to both Microsoft and NBC and now casting about for a meaningful identity beyond being profit-driven.”

MS NOW ?
For those of us living with multiple sclerosis the rebrand MS NOW for a cable news channel seems a bizarre choice.

Rachel, please help!
MSNBC seems to have stopped providing the “closed captions” for all the hosts with podcasts. Some of us can’t hear as well as we used to; some hosts/guests talk too fast or slur a word or two; some use the captions plus sound dor better comprehension.

Not enough
Much as I love Rachel, I am disappointed that she only appears once a week. She warns us that the democracy is in peril, with which I agree, but just doing the first hundred days falls woefully short of what is necessary. Anything less than 5 days a week undercuts her argument about a country in crisis. We don’t need a bagman story about a vp from the 70s, we need a story about the bagman Tom Holman and the corruption of this entire administration. Cmon Rachel, step up now.

No mention of Israel being the ones who unleashed Pegasus on our world?
Rachel, I love your coverage on the push back against fascism and your overall knowledge and concern about our at-risk democracy. However, it seems you consistently side step criticism of the Democratic Party establishment and I also notice you avoid criticism of Israel as much as possible. Very disappointing

Live MS
I wish that the tenor of this presentation was less ‘celebrate with these adorable news celebs’ and more serious, mournful &
appropriate for a national news where the nation is committing genocide and destroying the lives of the most vulnerable among us at home.

Obscurity made clear and bright
I rely on this podcast to understand what’s happening, sometimes even to keep my balance.
For over a decade, Rachel Maddow has reliably explained the background and history behind the most baffling current events. I listen to Maddow for the through lines that point out and up and far into the future.
These are the through lines that pierce disperse the gritful post-missile-strike atmosphere and reach toward the clear, breathable, believable air that WILL rush in.
P. S. New podcast request: Rachel Reads Supreme Court Arguments and Decisions! NOBODY can possibly do it better!
(Except maayyyyyybe Morgan Freeman, playing the opposing counsel, in which case it would be a tie.)

Analysis
I highly recommend Rachel Maddow; I love how she does not just provide news, but analyzes situations and provides historical context. She’s a genius.
Delete. Simplify. Streamline.
Great Show
I love to listen to Rachel and her guests. I feel I have a clearer understanding of what is going on

We heart Rachel Maddow
We are so grateful for Rachel's intellect, determination, honesty and kindness. Wish she was on the air five nights a week again.

Thank you, Rachel Maddow. Keep up the good work. I’m so glad you’re reporting during this calamitous time in our country. 😊

Garbage
Absolute garbage of a show. This is not reporting, this is opinions and lies. She does not care about the truth, she only cares about badmouthing anybody that is not super left wing Democrat. Charlie Kirk was just assassinated and she’s continue to just criticize Trump. No discussion on a horrible political assassination.
