I love Brian Stetler❤️💕🥰
This is a great podcast. I only got through the pandemic because Emily and Joe were so good. But nowadays I just appreciate this great pod because Stetler is so cool

Great pod
Miss Brian on TV. Need more exposure to smart informed honest media criticism and analysis. Especially before this national election

Do the Work
Molly sounds like she made up her list of queries fifteen minutes before the interview and needs a vocal coach badly. Brian dials it in. Thankfully the interview subjects save you by conjuring a point to your questions. The Vanity Fair name is also helping. Do the work.

Brian drives interested conversations
I really enjoyed how Brian Stelter elevated Reliable Sources on CNN, and I was pleased to find him hosting this podcast for Vanity Fair. He has always driven smart, engaging conversations that look at multiple viewpoints.

Glad your back Brian!
The Monica Lewinsky show gave a new perspective on this beleaguered woman . Bravo, she’s quite articulate! Thanks. Geri O ‘Hara

It’s not Reliable Sources but a good source
This podcast gives a good insight into different aspects of the media and its role on politics and society. The negative reviews from people are simply knee jerk responses to anything that they can’t understand or process. These people have cognitive dissonance to the fullest extent. Give the podcast a listen if you want to discern the current state of social, political and cultural affairs.

I enjoy this podcast very much, Brian is an expert in media and politics

Five stars for Joe Hagan’s RFK reporting
Also, Brian’s stint on CNN hosting ‘Reliable Sources’ was often plagued by the exact faults that Micael Wolff called him out for on that show in 2021. Brian is showing improvement in tone on ‘Inside the Hive’. Less patronizing toward guests who may not genuflect toward his opinions.

Smart and snappy podcast
I very much enjoyed Brian’s analysis on CNN, so was tickled when he appeared on this podcast. He offers the same no-nonsense analysis here. What I like best is these are 30 minutes - not an hour fueled with fluff. He gets right to the point, he has interesting guests, and addresses intriguing topics. A must-listen is his latest with the two Harvard professors who talk about their book “Tyranny of the Minority.” Loved it and listened to it twice.

What happened???

Love this show!
I have loved all the iterations of this show with the various hosts. Currently, I am enjoying Brian Stelter’s analysis. Vanity Fair was smart in snatching him. It’s CNN’s loss.

Please keep mr seltzer!
I don’t understand why some commenters are not into mr seltzer, but I’ve been a fan of his over the years: his cnn work was always engaging, he asks thoughtful questions, he’s clear headed and not overly trying to editorialize everything with a signature or whatever. I hope he stays on!

No on JB Pritzker
Looks terrible as a short morbidly obese man!!! Since when did you marketing strategists forget that charisma and looks take precedent among the electorate?! That’s why people are being prejudiced by the media re: Joe. He is no older much than Trump. I prefer healthier looking Joe! Pritzker looks gross and his last name is just as bad.

Why?
Why on earth did you replace Emily Jane Fox with this simpleton? The show is sooooo dumbed down now. The interviews are mediocre at best since the change. May give this show (and this simpleton) one more episode, and if it continues to provide zero added value on the events of the day, I’ll simply reluctantly move on.

Podcast about Rudy Giuliani
Brian, very informative podcast. I would suggest you might want to learn more about people with substance abuse problems such as alcohol. Substance abuse changes the brain. It is one of the reasons why people with substance abuse have a difficult time with cognitive abilities and self-awareness. Rudy unfortunately appears to have problems in that area and if you do some investigative work, you’ll find out many people that are in the limelight, including politicians have substance-abuse problems.

Brian was great on CNN. Reliable Sources is missed. But glad we have Hive podcast.

I miss Emily and Joe
Hope they return soon!

New host vs legacy host
I miss Emily Jane Fox, et al. Brian S is good for reporting on the machinations of media entities/process/etc. For current cultural buzz or deep dive profiles, I don’t feel this is his “beat”.

Brian Stelter…Kudos
Must confess I was a sporadic listener in the past , but now that Brian Stelter has arrived I never miss an episode… professional newscaster/interviewer knows the right questions to ask….

Dangerous MTG
05:11 “I hesitate…” sadly not enough hesitation lol. She may be changing but I can’t agree she’s evolving. A week after this interview dropped, MTG crossed another line in a congressional hearing when she held up a large picture of Hunter Biden in a sexual act. Her line of questioning was may have been meant to humiliate the Biden’s, maybe cause Biden supporters to rethink their support, but it was essentially irrelevant to proceedings. Besides her actions possibly being criminal it was juvenile and disrespectful to the congressional body itself. I’m not convinced that she actually understands what her job is supposed to be.

Keep Stelter
I’m a great admirer of Brian Stelter and miss Reliable Sources very much. He is largely the reason I listen to this podcast.

Where are Joe and Emily? I won’t listen to Brian Stelter.
Used to love it. I’ll listen again when Joe and Emily are back

SPOILER ALERTS
YOU CANT JUST SAY “SPOILER ALERT” AND THEN IMMEDIATELY SAY THE SPOILER WITHOUT GIVING SOMEONE THE CHANCE TO STOP THE PODCAST. YOUVE JUST RUINED SUCCESSION FOR ME. JERKS. UNSUBSCRIBED.

Good pod.
Brian is a very good host.

Delia Cal and Natalie Jarvey can’t stop saying “like”
Tried to listen to “Who Actually Still Wants to Be an Influencer?” episode and gave up due to repeated use of the word “like” by the cohosts. It was so over-the-top I started to wonder if it was intentional because they were discussing Barbie. Delia and Natalie are intelligent women but they come off sounding the teenagers at the mall. Please ladies, take this note.

Very Good Podcast
Please don’t let Brian Stelter be the new host. He is a rather insufferable character. Otherwise, high quality podcast and interesting topics

Dominion Fox coverage
So nice to hear Brian Shelter’s voice and journalism again
PearlGP
Please stop screaming MJF
Why screaming at the audience? I’m sure was great content but cannot listen to someone screaming at me.

I’ll miss you
Wow. I was so happy when I heard Emily and Joe back on the podcast— and then so sad when I heard it would be their last. Ya think you could do a podcast once a quarter maybe? Seriously, you did a great job. Think about it.
mrs blackmore
Thank you
I will very much miss hearing Joe Hagan and Emily Jane Fox moderate and discuss important and varied topics in their informed and thoughtful conversations with guests and each other. They contributed to getting me through the challenge of Covid’s early years with my sanity intact. Because of their fine work on this podcast, I subscribed to Vanity Fair magazine. I am grateful for their efforts, look forward to reading their articles and wish them well. Thank you. Katie Chambers Haskins

Great podcast w/ Dartmouth prof & Pogue
I love how this professor called out junk scholarship. As a professor of critical thinking, I’ve listened to a couple podcasts about Yarvin and his ilk, and I concur: they’re cobbling together a flawed ideology and using models to selll it to fools. Pogue seems more like their shill than a muckraker.

Wonderful interview of Hunter Biden by Emily Jane Fox. Emily just shines!
Thoughtful interview by EJF. Plenty of hard lessons to learn from intolerable sexist media abuse.
mindcentric
No truth
You are so biased about how well Biden is doing. How can you totally ignore the problem at the border? The State of the Union had multiple inaccuracies. Joe - Wow! You just made fun of female elected representatives based on what they were wearing. Really? You had the Hunter Biden show - yet no follow-up on when it was found the laptop does exist. Crime is spiking yet you guys hold no one accountable. It is more important to make snide comments about the Trumps and other’s fashion. The Trumps and fashion are irrelevant if you have been robbed.

Family Leave
You know who never complained about this? Your parents & grandparents. If you can afford a kid by all means have them. If you can’t? Well, we all don’t get what we want. It’s why your mother told you to study harder in school. Why should an employer pay you to have a child? The voice (guttural moan) of Molly Jong Fast is an incredibly rough listen.

Hard disagree
We don’t let trump slide because moms are tired of the story. Absolutely NO. Letting the rich and powerful slide leads to more crime at every level. It leads ME to consider more crime and YOU to consider crime. He must go down as hard as possible

Typical
insiders who are ready to trash Trump and use a different, quote, journalistic standard, unquote, for their favorite career politicians. These folks live in homes with no mirrors.

It Might Not Be Complicated, but There Are Many Pieces
Thank you for the interview with Andrew Weissmann. Though Mr. Weissmann says the Trump v. United States document case is simple, there are many parts—at least that’s how it seems to those of us without a legal background—and it can become confusing. In this interview, as well as his tweets, Mr. Weissmann explains things clearly and succinctly, making us all smarter. The longer format of this interview is conducive to such learning experiences.

Paris Hilton’s rehabilitation campaign
I love Emily but I wish she hadn’t succumbed to Paris Hilton’s attempt to convince the world that she didn’t have a large part in spreading anti-intellectualism in the 2000s and ignoring her racism (she’s on video using the n-word), as well as ignoring the fact that she’s a Trumper and has given interviews about her support for Trump. I suppose she gets a pass for all of this due to the large amounts of money she’s paying for the media to help rehabilitate her image but it’s disappointing that Emily and Vanity Fair are contributing to this transparent effort to regain fame.

I’ve been a fan sinnnnnnce… hmm…. Ep 2? 3? Either way, just taking a second to say thanks for moving the release day! Much better in the middle of the week 😁

great show this week
creepy and enlightening episode w Jeff Sharlet about the fringe right. Civil war?!? the London correspondent was also interesting about oligarchs and Boris Johnson
selvidge1981
Worthwhile podcast
One of my favorite weekly podcasts, particularly when Joe Hagen is the sole host. His experience, insight and humanity shines through and is awesome. I agree with another reviewer’s comments that Emily Jane Fox was a better guest than host and suggest that she return to that role.

Stopped listening
The gist of your show is blaming the democrats and whining. Whine whine whine
