I really appreciate how Ryan gets off-screen, insider bureaucrats on the show. "Everyone's a monster until you meet them." This guy comes across as sincere, empathetic, and capable.

"A world where a merger goes through if a billionaire donor has the President's ear, is a great world for the 'Magnificent 7,' it's a shitty world for startups and small businesses." An admirable American. Thank you, Commissioner.

This guy presents arguments so well and in a nonpartisan framework. Hope to see more of Alvaro in some capacity, whether reinstated or in another prominent role. Also love to see someone being interviewed taking notes as well as the journalists

I am so glad to hear that your guest, Mr. Bedoya, is suing to be reinstated as the FTC Commissioner. May he win that case! I and no doubt thousands of others have been screwed over by a monopoly company and thought we had finally settled our case only to receive a year or so later a letter from a collection agency saying we still owe this behemoth money. We need a strong FTC with a commissioner dedicated to standing up for justice for the small-time consumer.

I love Ryan’s approach so much. His curiosity is refreshing. You know he’s strong in his views, but he’s always openly challenging his own beliefs and asking others to question theirs.

I was a huge fan of Lina Khan, now I'm also a huge fan of Alvaro Bedoya! What a fantastic public servant!

That guy actually sounds like he does his job the way most working class people would want him to. Doesn’t surprise me they’re trying to remove him lol
