I'm very disappointed that 2020 is expecting everyone who listens to their podcast to now pay for a subscription. I think that's a cheap shot.
Really enjoyed listening but now it’s all behind a paywall. I’m already paying Apple Music to listen to these and I’m not paying yet another subscription. As if ABC News needs more freaking money.
Instead of thinking this would make us subscribe, how about thinking it would make us find another podcast. Good riddance
Unable to pay as i can’t afford it
