THE GIST.

Always surprising. Never doctrinaire.

Mike Pesca has established a seven-year connection to his audience as host of The Gist. For thirty minutes each day, Pesca challenges himself and his audience, in a responsibly provocative style, and gets beyond the rigidity and dogma. The Gist is surprising, reasonable, and willing to critique the left, the right, either party, or any idea.

Have you ever dreamed of playing fantasy football with Mike as your co-manager? Do you want Mike to Spiel on a topic of your choice? From your Living Room? Would you like to be part of a Mike-led Book Club? Or participate in a Mike-hosted Trivia Night? Or would you simply like ad-free content? All this and more is now possible when you become a GIST subscriber.
