“Leave a Comment” – Raw Reactions from the Mother-Son Duo You Didn’t Know You Needed

“Leave a Comment” – Raw Reactions from the Mother-Son Duo You Didn’t Know You Needed

Welcome to Leave a Comment, the show that pulls no punches. Co-hosted by Emmy-winning journalist Joel Waldman and licensed therapist Karmela Waldman—aka “Karm”—the fiery 85-year-old Holocaust survivor behind the hit true crime podcast Surviving the Survivor.

This week, Joel and Karm bring you their sharpest takes on the wildest stories in America—from mass protests over Trump’s military parade and the controversial federal deployment of troops in L.A., to looming U.S. involvement in a possible Israel-Iran war. They weigh in on Supreme Court rulings rattling the culture wars, a brutal heat wave roasting the nation, and the biggest true crime headlines dominating headlines right now—including the chilling murder of three sisters by their father Travis Decker in Washington, a dismembered body found in South Carolina, and Karen Read walking free in Boston after a dramatic not-guilty verdict.

It’s unfiltered, opinionated, and deeply human—just how Karm likes it.
