About BEST OF THE LEFT
This biweekly show is a beautifully executed compilation combining the absolute
best in left-leaning political news and commentary with great music to glue it all
together. Each edition we choose a political theme and bring you a variety of
stories and perspectives from an array of sources on that theme.
