There's a reason why "Debate Sam Seder" memes have taken off. Sam is a comedian- Jimmy Dore would say a failed comedian- who in debates can run circles around even the people who hold doctorates or run societies for "liberty", bringing laughs to the viewers and enraging the opposition. Sam offers thoughtful analysis on what's happening in the U.S. and around the world, but we can't help but laugh. Much of it also owes to assistant host Michael Brooks, master of the impersonation. Brooks created characters and made them come alive- Right Wing Mandela took on a life of his own.
The hosts in many ways complement each other. Sam's focus is on domestic issues, with a particular interest in the judiciary (I think he's the only non-lawyer on Ring of Fire). Sometimes, I see him educating his younger co-hosts/producers. Michael is knowledgeable about matters beyond the U.S. Kelly, now gone, had contagious laughing fits; she's been replaced by Jamie who adds a more radical stripe to the show.
The Majority Report started during the run up to the Iraq War. I discovered it post-2016 election. It has special importance now that democracy is dying around the globe. Sam cares, and he can still make us laugh, and sometimes he offers hope. There's no one he can't refute. Try him, Dave Rubin.
