Description

Common Sense with Dan Carlin is an independent look at politics and current events from popular New Media personality Dan Carlin.
Carlin's self-described "Martian" viewpoints infuse each episode with a political alien's take on the world around us and the problems it faces. It's a smart, unique (and admittedly U.S.-centric) program that doesn't dumb down the information or analysis for the slowest person in the room.
Carlin's rapid-fire staccato voice has been compared to William Shatner after too many espressos. That, plus his penchant for making everyone in the audience mad at him eventually, makes for a witch's brew of a podcast that is not for everyone. But for those craving a deeper intellectual analysis, a less partisan approach and unpredictable outside-the-box revelations, Common Sense with Dan Carlin is a feast for the mind.

The last podcast filled with Noonan's drivel about the "violent left" and nothing about Nugent and a President who wants to punch faces was it for me.
That was not balanced.
It might have been common, but the sense was nowhere to be found.

In a political climate full of hot takes and propaganda Dan has a rare show that doesn't cater to anyone. He certainly has his own biases but he is way more aware of them then most on the right and nearly everyone on the left. He puts a lot of thought in what he says and actually tries to see all sides and to think issues through. He's got his own agendas but he understands that. We need many many more voices like his all over the spectrum and a lot less unthinking sheep railing against the other unthinking sheep.

Dan yanks you all over the place. You'll be thrilled when he says something you agree with, but he forces you to look at the other side of things as well. He takes a no-nonsense approach that will appeal to people across the political spectrum. This podcast is ever more important in our hyper-partisan atmosphere today, as it serves to mediate people's viewpoints and forces you to look at things a billion different ways.

In a world where the lines between fact and opinion are so thoroughly blurred, and finding thoughtful, insightful, and intelligent analysis is increasingly difficult, Common Sense with Dan Carlin is a true masterpiece. I can state unequivocally that this podcast assists me in looking at various issues from multiple angles and teaches me how to properly vet my own opinions, strip as much bias as possible, and helps to ensure that I am looking at the world critically. Thank you to all involved in creating and publishing this podcast.

Sometimes Carlin calls himself a political martian, because almost any way you try to categorize him ultimately fails. In a hyper-stratified political atmosphere, this is a refreshing viewpoint, and, in my view, is the only path to success for America.

It's shocking to me how someone with such a great knowledge of history could completely fail when it comes to understanding modern domestic and foreign politics. I felt Dan had a very influential platform and trustworthy following, similar and in part due to Joe Rogan, and surely they influenced a cadre of free thinkers to either accept or vote for Donald Trump. His confusion about the current state of affairs is perplexing to me. His constant railing against the establishment and stalled government were largely misplaced. Now he finds himself on the wrong side of history and acts as if this was a curve ball that no one could see coming. Accept A LOT of people saw it coming. People with only a slightly more nuanced view. He is quick to ramble and discuss his disjointed thoughts on politics, but I hear him make arguments and rationalizations that are unfound and similar to that of a University freshman studying political science. He can think and is a smart guy, but is not well versed on political theory. Please, listen to Hardcore History and enjoy it for what it is. I listen and love it. Leave your political and cultural ramblings aside. I fear it's doing more harm than good.

The podcast is a more libertarian view that doesn't insult anyone on the left or right. Of course, he can upset people on the right and left but in a good way that makes you think. We need more of this type of communication to set this country right.

It's hilarious to read the negative reviews of this podcast because one person says Dan Carlin OBVIOUSLY gets all of his information from watching Fox News and that he's completely a Republican, and then the next person says "Don't listen to this podcast! He's a Huge LIBERAL!!!"
If you're going to listen to Dan Carlin, you need to listen to at least 10 shows to get a good feel for what he stands for. Don't listen to one show and then decide that what he's saying labels him one way or the other. He's NON-PARTISAN and is sure to say something you'll disagree with at some point, but guess what? In the next show he'll say something that you agree with again!
Listening to Dan has challenged my traditional views to many times and not the way that people from the opposing party used to. He looks at things from a totally different perspective than most people and really makes me think. If you listen to him, you'll find that he'll make you think too, and that's a GOOD thing.

Pretty good political ideas show, although the ideas are generally based less on decent research, or in-depth understanding of the issues, and more on Mr Carlin's bubbling imagination, with the occasional historical analogy. Well worth a listen, if you don't take it too seriously.

Dan's monolouges are a refreshing change to the one-sided corporate influenced viewpoints of the mass media. Dan talks from the heart, but he doesn't sacrafice his brain in order to do so. If you are tired at the finger pointing and party bashing, try the Dan Carlin show, you surely won't be dissapointed.

Dan addresses current events with intensity and intelligence, a welcome combination. He offers his opinions ardently, but without undue venom and always citing his sources. You may not agree with every belief he presents, but it's hard to argue that his topics aren't worth looking at in a different way. Always energetic and thought-provoking, Dan makes politics exciting to think about and, more importantly, makes you think there is a way to change all the problems we know our system has.

It is almost impossible for me to find a political talk show that I agree with even half the time, and Dan Carlin is no exeption. However his non-partisan style is great for somebody who likes to think about, and argue issues, rather than just agree or disagree. Even his self-proclaimed "Stupid Ideas" are better than most of the commentary I hear coming out of the "Mainstream Media" these days.
His "Hardcore History" podcast is also worth checking out if you are into that kind of thing.

I am astounded that I have not heard of Dan Carlin until now. Truly astonished and horrified that this great broad/podcaster has gone unnoticed by me. His Common Sense and Hardcore History podcasts are simply brilliant, and I now can't wait to catch up on all the bits I have missed and can get my hands on.
Common Sense in particular bears great attention. I, like Dan, have grown very tired of the partisan politics from both the Right and the Left, and it is great to know that there are voices out there who are articulating the ideas that most of us have that almost never fall into the Left or the Right with any regularity or neatness.

Dan's news and political commentary is always solidly grounded in reason. I especially like how carefully he lays out his logic and analyzes issues from multiple angles.

Dan is good 'critical thinker' on all the hot topics and issues of today. He has a gregarious, attention-getting voice and a logical and organized methodology to laying out points, counterpoints and then drawing conclusions and/or offering solutions (however impossible or unlikely those solutions may sometimes be). Lastly, this excellent show is entertainment of the intelligent kind. Very much worth the download and also check out Dan's Hardcore History for an unusual treatment of history topics.

I look forward to Dan's show and have even listened to one or two of them twice (Buchanan on Empire in particular). Even if you don't agree with what he says, the fact that he consistently reveals to us that the two major parties consistently lie to us and don't even try to cover it up has to disturb you. Dan reminds us that Democracy and Freedom require hard work, they require diligence, they require compromise, and they require our vigilence. The fact is, the very purpose of government is not to give us freedom, but to take freedom away (like the freedom to kill, steal, etc). But if we aren't paying attention (which 95% of Americans are not, most of the time), then the government will take away more and more freedoms until we find ourselves far afield of the free democracy that we all want so much. Dan's show helps call our attention back to these basic concepts of democracy and freedom and will always disturb you, but in a way that you are likely to be grateful for. Keep them coming, Dan.

Dan provides "out of box" view points and ideas to help you see that it's still possible to control the current directions of our society. Mr. Carlin, with his training in history, points out how things have changed from the ideas America's founders originally worked with, and shows how we might use those ideas to steer our country back towards those grand goals. His quick wit and humor make the show interesting while expanding your mind.
While you might not like his (thankfully infrequent) preacher voice, Dan Carlin always comes up with ideas to make you think. You might not even agree with what he says, but he sure does help you to see not just both sides, but all the other sides of today's problems.
I think everyone should give this podcast a listen - stick with it, and expand your view of reality! It will make you a better and more informed citizen of this country (for those in the USA) and this planet. If you like what you hear, tell a friend (that's how I found Common Sense.)

Dan's the real deal. While the political flacks point accusing fingers at each other across The Great Divide, Dan's finger is pointing right at the heart of what everyone should be thinking about when it comes to things political. Be ye a crusty conservative, a lefty liberal, or a muddled moderate, you'll find Dan's brand of, well, COMMON SENSE to be irresistable. Strap in, the ride can get bumpy at times, but the destination is worth it!

Addicted to Dan

I was trying to think of how to describe Dan Carlin. I finally settled on "explosive". He'll be talking and then of a sudden his voice will just explode in volume. He's very passionate and intense. His style is addictive...I like it more the more I hear it.

This is truly a show that EVERYONE should be listening to. What's amazing is that no one else out there (in the media, at least) seems to be thinking like this. Maybe because he has no liberal or conservative agenda? There's none of that here, and how refreshing it is. It's just that– common sense. Why is that so hard to find?

Dan's knowledge of history gives him a broader view of the current state of affairs. It is refreshing to hear topics discussed without the obvious partisan biases. The name of the show pretty much says it all.

Common Sense is not Common

I've been listening to Dan for 9 months, now. This show is consistently high quality, well thought out, compelling and interesting viewpoints on current events, put across in a way that makes the subject timeless. Working from a base as a history major, with a background in radio and TV, Dan is able to ask the Tough Questions that the pundits don't dare ask, tie together related material that seems to baffle the talk show hosts, and compare it all back to historical events that our political heroes seem to have forgotten. Being a sensible kind of guy who realizes that simply complaining does no one any good, Dan always has a suggested solution, as well. If you find the media, the talk shows, the pundits, and your "faithful" political heroes lacking, why... the solution is just Common Sense!!!!

Excellent podcast

He provides a novel take on many issues. He provides a lot of energy in his show and paces it well. He doesn't follow any partisan line, which is unique among any political opinion. Like him or don't like him that's your choice, but this one is a must listen!
