    Why would anyone want to listen to Ted Cruz droning on for an hour? Even republicans don’t like him.

        Do we know for sure anyone even is listening? I see info about this podcast generating advertising revenue, but that’s probably just companies taking advantage of a new legal way to pay bribes to Ted Cruz.

          Nope. but it stands to reason somebody listens. Like maye the guy who wrote the article that I didn’t read.

          Book deals are cleaner.

    I would think the worst ugly truth is that Ted Cruz is the podcaster.

    I thought iHeartMedia sounded familiar. Does this mean I have to unsubscribe from Stuff You Should Know? Cause that would suck.
