Every week, Dustin and Allan sit down to untangle the messy threads of current events with a mix of sharp commentary and genuine laughs. Their None Taken: Independent News Commentary, and Comedy operates from a simple, refreshing premise: two friends talking through the news without any partisan script or network agenda. What you’ll hear is the kind of conversation that happens off-air-spontaneous, often skeptical, and punctuated by the humor needed to get through another wild news cycle. They debate, they dig into stories that might get glossed over elsewhere, and they aren’t afraid to call out nonsense from any direction. This podcast feels like pulling up a chair at a lively table where the analysis is independent and the takes are served with a side of comedy. It’s less a formal debate stage and more a reliable space for making sense of the world without taking it, or themselves, too seriously. For anyone tired of the same predictable shouting matches, Dustin and Allan offer a different, more human sound.
