  • Current events with Historical Context

    I like how Dr. Lichtman and his son bring the context of history to what is happening and also they genuinely care about each other which is nice. This is a very informative show.

  • One of the last trustworthy voices in politics

    Allan Lichtman is one of the last trustworthy contemporary voices in politics. Legacy media has completely sold out, lost most credibility, and sacrificed all principles. Allan and his son do a great job breaking down what is happening in Washington, and they do so while preserving the truth. They continue to speak truth to power, unlike most voices in this dire moment. When it feels like everyone is complacent in a time of disgrace in the US, Allan and his son give me hope that there is at leas... more

As a historian, Professor Lichtman brings the knowledge & expertise that we so desperately need, especially now. And Sam brings his... more

  • Exceptional analysis through a historical lens

    Truth and evidence based analysis of political events with a keen historical perspective. Professor Luchtnan and his son Sam discuss a particular topic and then take questions. Very well done show.

  • Dudes a Hack

    Got 2016 & 2024 wrong and thinks he’s the second coming of Christ himself. His Keys aren’t even a bad indicator, just the way he analyzes them thru an extremely politically bias POV is. The voices in your head are more reliable as a source

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Are We Headed Toward WAR? U.S.–Venezuela Oil Tanker Crisis Explained | Lichtman Live #189
Q: How do you balance the desire for regime change against the history of American interventions?
While there's a call for regime change, the episode emphasizes the historical failures of such actions and advocates for supporting change that comes organically from the people rather than through military means.
Are We Headed Toward WAR? U.S.–Venezuela Oil Tanker Crisis Explained | Lichtman Live #189
Q: Why does Trump want Maduro ousted?
The primary motive is financial gain from Venezuela's vast oil reserves, as they represent a significant potential profit for Trump's interests and those of his wealthy allies.
Hegseth Under Fire: Troops ENDANGERED + “WAR CRIME” Allegations | Lichtman Live #187
Q: Was foreign intervention in Libya justified if it removed a dictator but left the country unstable?
Probably not. There are dictators all over the world, and is it our responsibility to kill them? If it's not going to create a stable democratic country?
Hegseth Under Fire: Troops ENDANGERED + “WAR CRIME” Allegations | Lichtman Live #187
Q: If Democrats retake the White House in 2028, would you advise them to pack the court if they can?
I don't think that's a wise idea. It'll just look like another war on the judiciary, on a partisan basis.
