I love Rachel. Both as a fellow woman but human. She reminds me a bit of Jon Stewart. She's able to bring some humor and directness to her show and I too learn something new every single show. I never imagined watching talking heads about Politics but I am absolutely hooked on Keith and Rachel. I am so thankful for both of them.
