    Enjoy the show
    It great to learn from a perspective of a active politician. I think all politician should be transparent and talk in debt about the issues ( not sloganeering like some notable ones )

    I would not trust you to have my back on a SEAL team
    Deleting your podcast 👎🏼
  • D_Lime
    Sellout
    Dan used to be for the people but he is truly for BIG government. He doesn’t vote conservative. He has now threatened to kill Tucker Carlson if he sees him in person. Where is the free speech? Why the hate? RINO

    Budget Process
    Long time listener, first time reviewer. I really appreciate the prospective you bring to this podcast and honesty of your dialogue to the listeners. Not sure if this is the proper forum for topic requests but I think it would be beneficial to hear your opinions regarding the pro/con of the federal budget cycle mirroring that of Texas (biennial budgeting). Thank you for your dedication and service to Texas and the US.
  • __JTG__
    Solid information download
    I very much appreciate both the interviews and the SITREPs to hear your opinions and explanations for why you take the actions you have in your position in the house. I’m not in your district but so few do this well it is great to hear.
  • kayleeeeeb
    Dan Crenshaw is a rational and powerful voice
    Run for president. We need a real republican in the whitehouse. You speak my mind we need you running things thank you Dan for all that you do.
  • Tracy at TOMA
    End of the World. June 23, 2022
    Your interviewees are noteworthy but i like the SitRep better. not inflamed, just the facts & historical context, brief, but with an occasional personal experience-based commentary. i agree on the new Riviera - let it play out.
  • KRC NY
    Look forward to every episode
    I have so much respect and appreciate all the work you do for our country and the Republican Party. You are principled, measured and steadfast in your commitment to the true republican platform and cause. I have been following you since you first took office and have been enamored with your approach to politics which is reassuring in seeing the young and future leadership for the party. I have read your book, listen to your podcast and have made the lessons learned part of my everyday life. I respect how well you handle being on CNN panels and Bill Maher handling hostile environments with facts, confidence, and tact. I know the trolls online and the actual RINOs love to attack you endlessly and I’m sure that’s what you see most so I wanted to try and remind you of the real people out here that recognize you and are rooting for you.
  • Bataan Marcher
    Dan Crenshaw
    I just listened to your interview of Prof Burns. You seemed to think that early American Army did not have their share of guerrilla fighters. Let me remind you of Robert Rodgers, Francis Marion and others. Also the European armies marched in lines so that the they had “massed firepower” we still use the the same theory
  • Nana_Fitness
    Review
    I like the SITREP episodes but also these kinds of interviews. The only thing I don’t like is when you speak derisively about ppl with whom you disagree. Just like when Tucker throws out words like “evil” or “objectively true” it’s not helpful when you throw out words like “stupid” and “idiots” b/c they see things differently. We have to set the standard for civil discourse and bringing evidence for our views—especially in debate with ppl who have more common views than not. And we have to do so over and over with patience.

    Dan sold his soul to Donald Trump. Sick of the chaos. Sick of the waste of time. Sick of Dan.
  • The Rocco
    Holding the Truths
    This review is not relative to any one podcast from rep Crenshaw. It is however a review of the decisions he has made since securing a seat in the house. Mr Crenshaw has become a disappointment for the many who believed he would comport himself as a conservative and not the neo-con Bush apostle that he has clearly become. In spite of his military record and being able to speak well he has not distinguished himself as a leader. He’s a windsock at best.
  • Rubinon2
    Constitutional knowledge
    Thank you for the format of your podcast to include experts on so many important subjects, I have heard many opinions on the 14 th amendment. On the surface its seems unconstitutional to declare immigrants born in USA no to be US citizens. However, there is some opinions that the 14 th amendment makes no such claim. Perhaps a discussion to give an accurate interpretation of the 14 th amendment in light of the current situation in our country.
  • LoydC91362
    Very Informative
    This show is always interesting. The Sit-rep episodes especially are a great public service, with enlightening details about current events in the House of Representatives and legislation they’re working on. It will make listeners more informed voters.

    The best political podcast. SITREP episodes (sitrepisodes?) are excellent and a great public service. Very thankful for all that you do, Dan.

    Sitrep
    Love the sitrep format. Start with the date. While daily might be too much to ask it would be very nice. Keep it up please. Your staff could do a few of you are too busy.

    Love the SitRep. Would like just a little more info/opinion on the topic.
  • fueledbymetal
    SITREP is a game changer!
    There should be more podcasts like this that give insight into what our elected officials are thinking and doing.

    SITREP
    Love the weekly update addition!
  • Y2856Y
    Great New Approach
    I’ve been waiting and wondering for decades why a President or some other of our politicians in Washington are not passing on the inside scoop in DC on a weekly basis. I think the last politician to do anything like that was FDR. THANK YOU FOR THE NEW APPROACH TO YOUR PODCAST!!!

    Mr. Crenshaw
    LOVE the Sitrep!!!!

    Enjoying the SITREP format
    I like the interviews, but I like these short SITREP updates even more. It's great to hear from you directly vs filtered through some journalist.

    Low on bias, high on information. Concise and interesting.

    Appreciate the news format and getting a brief overview on what’s going on
  • A trailhead
    Good Podcast
    On the August 30th podcast, the guy that Dan talked too is a total idiot. Kamala is a good choice and will win? Hmmm… the position of a real anti-American. Why talk to this idiot.
  • Escaped from DC
    History matters
    Great job Dan. What a concise review of why American leadership matters. Why we live at a standard of living designed by American involvement in the world that makes us at home safer and prosperous. Bring the guest back and let’s discuss why removing Saddam after the lessons of 9-11 was required. WMDs were only part of it. Excellent guest and podcast.
  • BigChump
    We need more politicians like Dan!
    I may not agree w all the congressmen’s politics but I respect his intellect and insistence on rationally addressing issues facing our country. Additionally, he speaks his mind and appears to be a man of integrity and one to put country ahead of himself - something rare in today’s political milieu. Please keep up the good work and keep these fascinating PCs coming!

  • A sluggo 56
    All of them
    Show is always interesting and educates listener to topics that effect us as citizens of the United States and Texas Always a great listen interesting subjects and realavent. Love the show !!
  • Sajdge
    Quit Interrupting Your Guests Dan
    Crenshaw (& team) does a great job at getting actual experts and finding fascinating topics of discussion, easily making WHTT the most insightful podcast to come from the halls of Congress. BUT Dan keeps interrupting and opining right as his guests are getting into the substantive part of their conversation, effectively turning the guest into the moderator. It’s as if he’s trying to show that he knows his stuff (which believe me, we all know you do sir). This podcast stands out as one that really does get into great detail without going into the toxic partisanship of basically every other political podcast these days. But again, it could be that much better if Dan could cool the jets, stop the steamrolling, and actually let his guests finish their thoughts.
  • Caaaard
    One of the best
    Who say all of them are great but find one on a topic you were interested in and guarantee you’ll be educated
  • Elle052216
    I learn so much
    Dan has a wealth of knowledge to share and great guests.
  • Devo is Real
    Balanced and Informative
    Dan will bring on interesting people, chat over the topics, and always treat the guest with respect. An hour of intelligent conversation to brighten your week.

    Illegals
    How is the Biden administration able be pay for flying all these illegals in from other countries? Doesn’t congress control the money and pass the bills? What are you doing to stop our tax payer dollars from being wasted on this destructive act?
  • Southwest1000
    Profanity
    Hi Dan - hadn’t listened to your show in awhile because - well, life. Had always enjoyed it, so started this episode as I am really interested in the topic. However, after 3-4 profanities in the first 10 minutes or so, I turned it off. I’m really sorry to miss it. I wouldn’t think anyone you are trying to reach would be offended if you kept your language clean, but some would be if you didn’t. I know it has to be frustrating in Washington, but this is the classic “message lost because of the delivery.” I hope you clean it up.
