  • Accurate and compact

    I'm retired and work as an Uber driver. I discovered the 10 minute trail like so many other people through Dana Parrino.

    This compact show can bring me up to speed with accurate and unbiased information. It's interesting funny and relevant.

  • Quick Bits of Truth

    This is my go-to political podcast. In just 10 minutes, it cuts through the media spin and gets straight to the facts. Matt brings the news with a smile (literally) It's the podcast I recommend and forward to friends and family most often because it's quick, insightful, and easy to fit into any day.

  • Never Miss

    I have two major complaints with the 10 a minute Drill: 1) it is only 10 minutes, and 2) we can’t hear it every day!

    Hands down the best podcast to catch up on the news and hear great analysis from Matt, cutting through the fluff of what is normally told to us by the legacy media.
