The Michael Steele Podcast (in its current form) is going on hiatus, so Michael is bringing together some favorite podcast guests from past episodes for a big, live streamed barbershop on politics, culture and current events on YouTube. Join Michael Steele, Rick Wilson, Eugene Daniels, Tara Setmayer, Dr. Jason Johnson and April Ryan on Tuesday, June 3rd at 10 a.m. ET. (They will be taking audience questions at the end of the podcast!)
So who's going to be willing to host Elie when you are gone? Those were great shows! Not sure I can respect you in the morning.
I love the Bulwark and I was happy to see you as a host because I'd like some minority representation here, even though I love the main team.
Why should MSNBC get your loyalty after they removed all those hosts of color? Are you still a practicing Republican?
I am not happy with your decision. [I know, redundant.] I've stopped watching MSNBC and CNN because I don't consider them to do a good job of reporting. So I guess I won't be seeing you. The Bulwark and Meidas touch do a better job.
Hi Michael, your podcast is so much more of an intimate and in-depth conversation than is possible in the cable format. I hope you will reconsider and keep a podcast going along with your new gig. For example, I enjoy Nicole Wallace's new podcast and Chris Hayes' podcast.
You're a good guy, Michael. I'll really miss your kindness and decency in your podcast. You make me feel better just listening to you. I will definitely follow you to your next adventure!
You will be missed. It has always been amazing to me how you sustain your sweet spirit alongside all you have learned and experienced in our complicated political world. I've learned a lot from you alongside those times when you are a complete hoot! MSNBC is lucky to have you. I hope you will continue to back up Katty Kay when the Mooch is out of town. Happy trails.
Have followed your pod -- and you commentaries wherever you pop up -- for years, so I'm sad that this chapter is closing, but glad you are onwarding and upwarding still! All best wishes!
- Please keep all of these epiphanous points of light very much alive and prominent on your website because there has never been a Michael Steele podcast not worth listening to at least two or three times!
Btw.
That's it folks. I have finally channeled enough of my grief through these long and overwrought meditations upon the passing of the Michael Steele eponymous podcast! And I realize, TMI though it may be, that I could have just poured a libation instead and precluded reifying my extended riff & rant but in these dark & wee hours of the morning, I really needed to vent to the cloistered village of Bulwark. So thank you all for dwelling in this village. TDS. It rears its monstrous hydra head once more!
Yet bereft as I am, Dawn rises and awaits! ...Along with a vocal feline wanting sustenance of one sort or another, i.e, food, affection, a romp sround the house, who can really say?; a cat's imperious and indisputable prerogative in the grand scheme of things. The rest of us? Mere actors on a stage, as someone noted earlier in a series of moments before our own.
After posting my long farewell to Michael, I took the time to read all of the other comments and reluctant farewells added before my own and now I am even more crestfallen and off my usual cheerful game (I was fortunate to be raised with abundant joy and love and citical thinking skills!) than a short while ago. Here is why:
Judging from the comments, it looks like most of your audience is female! I certainly hope not because - as the gods know full well - your voice & POVs definitely need to be going straight into the hearts and minds of men actoss America who are ensnared in their man-caves and man-bubbles. I mourn deeply for my gender if we haven't been listening to you and your guests religiously for years!
Will miss your show. Could you post your live YouTubes here please?
You combine a positive philosophy, political experience along with a good sense of humor to keep us informed.
Good luck. !
I purchased a membership for this?

Nicole Wallace has a podcast. Why can't Michael have one? I'd definitely sign up for that!

Thanks Michael, for your passion and point of view. I love to listen to you! Good luck with the Weeknight!
I hate to hear this but congratulations! I just don't get cable, so I will probably miss your MSNBC.
Sirius XM has it.
Thanks, but I don't subscribe to that either.
Have followed your pod -- and you commentaries wherever you pop up -- for years, so I'm sad that this chapter is closing, but glad you are onwarding and upwarding still! All best wishes!
Thank you for your podcast, Michael.
You have become one of my favorite Bulwark podcasters.
Your voice will be deeply missed.
Thank you for your voice and wisdom. We appreciate all you have done, and look forward to hearing more from you as we all face this “shit”.
The times, they are a-changin'. Sorry to see this one go but I'll be looking for you on MSNBC. Congrats on the new gig and good luck to you.
Bulwark!
Sarah, et al.

Wow! Again...

And worry!
A lot!
For the rest of America.
