  1. I always enjoy all the extra content on Old School and the Friday Post Game. Also Aggressive Progressive. You do a great job, Ryan Grim. And Malcolm Fleschner. I like your sense of humor and your interviews.

  2. Ryan Grim really knows his stuff (+ your daughter is too cute!). I agree with k0m0rebi and mentioned before. would love to seeTYT give him and the rest of The Intercept team a weekly show where they can go in depth on stories they’ve published, or stories their working on for members who don’t have an opportunity to see those stories on other platforms.

  3. Ryan is the most under-utilized and amazing tool that TYT has.

    I hate that because I don’t use facebook I don’t get to see his videos. I only get to see the segments they cut out of the q&a’s posted on TYTPolitics. Please put up the whole q&a’s. I learn so much from them.

    Also, his newsletter is amazing. It’s the only newsletter I’m subscribed to that I read everytime I see it. It’s so good, guys.

    1. Totally. Ryan and Nomi make my donations worth it. The others- not so much. I have a lot faith in Emma and think she is worth it as an investment.

      You know what, I’m going to take this as an opportunity to discuss the issue of confusion and fragmentation with TYT right now that is really frustrating as a member, which we all are.

      What is going on with TYTPolitics and TYTInvestigations? Now we have Rebel Headquarters that is being posted on TYTPolitics and some other stuff that was there moving to TYTInvestigations? Should it have it’s own channel? Also, should this Bernie Sanders townhall be under TYTPolitics and not the main show which I thought was for daily news now…

      Then there is the issue of random videos that Cenk or someone else might make that go up on the main show channel. Well, I’m a member and I just download the podcast- I never get to see that stuff even though I’m the one paying for it. I only found out because one time I saw someone else post a clip that Cenk made in a park or something.

      So beyond all that confusion, not being able to find stuff, not being able to see Ryan and Eric’s q&a’s (which I discussed in another comment in here), I have no idea what is going on with TYTPolitics now that Jordan is gone. I assume Emma is in charge? What direction is the channel going in? What are her responsibilities?

      I hate bringing up the fact that I pay money for this so much, but I do. Beyond that I donated the drive to hire all these people and I think that entitles me to answers a little more than just being a member. Please let your audience and your members know what is going on and what to expect. This kind of stuff makes it less likely that I will donate in the future.

      So I don’t know how that comes off. If it comes off as irate, I’m not. I’m not even angry. These are just things that have gone through my mind a lot these past few months. I’m sure other people have thought similar things.

  4. I join the chorus here and agree that Ryan Grim is a great asset to TYT Network as well as David Sirota, Nomiki Konst, and the Eric Byler. Too bad we don’t see much of Dylan Ratigan right now. Malcolm did a good job interviewing Ryan today.

    BTW, what happened to Shaun King?

  5. Another Ryan fan here, so glad he’s associated with tyt. Malcolm you are doing a great job with these interviews!

  6. I love Ryan Grim. He’s always knowledgeable and just has so many interesting tidbits of information in every piece he does. We’re so lucky to have him. Great conversation!
