Pat, Troy and Carson take a deep dive into why democrats are losing elections and provide their insights into how and when the party of Roosevelt and Kennedy will start winning again. Troy talks about the cynical aspects of identity politics, Pat does his best Nate Silver and looks into the state legislative losses over the last 7 years and Carson takes on the bipartisan neoliberal to neoconservative policy consensus of tax cuts and who they really benefit.  

With some shameless pleas for Thomas Frank and Rick Perlstein to pay attention to Agreeing Loudly and a handful of greatly needed plugs for Matt Taibbi and Matthew Yglesias, the end result...a fantastic weekend podcast to listen to.

Agreeingloudly.com contributors Troy Olson and Carson Starkey join host Pat Meacham to take on the impossible task of selecting their top 10 essential albums of all-time. From Bob Dylan to Nirvana with a stop at STAX Records the guys talk about the albums you should be listening to if you aren't already...

After a brief hiatus, Bill, Jered, and Pat return to bring you another exciting episode of Agreeing Loudly Coast to Coast. This week Bill does his best to answer the question of whether Millennial Bernie Sanders supporters will turn out for Hillary during the general election. Meanwhile, Jered celebrates his recent move to Denver by obsessing far too long over Batman vs Superman, the future of streaming and why he thinks this year's Wrestlemania is poised to be one of the worst of all time. Perhaps even more shocking, Pat has his own thoughts about the professional wrestling's biggest show of the year. 

On this week's episode of Agreeing Loudly Coast to Coast Jered, Bill and Pat (only because he had to) finally answer the question that has been in the minds of our listeners since day one. What will be the better movie: Batman vs.Superman or Captain America: Civil War?  

On the 25th episode of Agreeing Loudly Coast to Coast, the core team returns to restore some order to the podcast world. Bill struggles to lead a February sweeps segment in a world of streaming bliss. Meanwhile, Pat reopens the stadium discussion with a bit of Saint Paul related soccer news. Also, Jered tries to make millennial home ownership sexy and relevant before dragging the podcast into the dark Drumpfs of the internet with a super exciting debate about Trump and the Republican Party. 

On this week's special 1 1/2 hour episode of Agreeing Loudly Coast to Coast, regular hosts Pat and Jered are joined by special co-host and friend of the show Maria Camargo to get to the bottom of Super Tuesday's results. Also, all of the Agreeing Loudly contributors are on hand as regional correspondents to give their perspectives on the night's outcomes.

Not a fan of politics? Well there's also plenty of discussions on historical Tuesdays and the Academy Awards. In addition, despite the Agreeing Loudly contributors' protestations Pat manages to lead another exciting recap of this week in sports.

Still not interested? Well...listen anyways! 

Remember when the MN GOP used to the campaign slogan "restoring the balance" to win back the MN House in 2014? That's not what this super special episode of Agreeing Loudly: Coast to Coast "Nevada/South Carolina Fallout" edition is about.

Come join podcast regular Pat Meacham and special guests Carson Starkey and Troy Olson as they drink 2 beers each (union made of course), and mostly talk about accepting the inevitable. Also, talk of Kanye West, the Duke of Bullingdon dropping out of the GOP race, and more!
