- I miss Shumita and want her back
This is the first podcast I listen to on my phone, and I built it as my morning routine. I listen to a lot of morning news, but I always put Apple News as the first one to play. However, after the host changed, I don’t feel the passion to listen to it. Gideon is good, but I really want Shumita to be back. I miss her.

United States19 days ago - Great
But to the person who wrote that stupid comment about keeping it to a schedule so that it can fit your timeline, that’s dumb. There are many different time zones in America, and as an American citizen, living in England waiting for the News to come out, you can wait and deal without having to listen to it for a bit
Apple Podcasts5AP_ lasagna24United States19 days ago - Sept 12th episode
Had to change my five star review to a 3 stars after your September 12 episode. When your guest implies that Lindsey Clancy’s husband may have had something to do with killing their kids. This now makes me discount your credibility.
Apple Podcasts3ATL liferUnited States21 days ago - Good briefing but late releases!
I really wish they would stick to 6am or 6:30am releases. It is a part of my morning routine on my drive to work at 6:30am everyday.
I love listening to Gideon but I do love Shumita and wish she would come back.
People complaining about bias are snowflakes. This is the most unbiased media option we have. They are reporting facts. That’s it.
Apple Podcasts4Kristen HavlikUnited States23 days ago - good podcast
Is it just me or do I hear a cough or two in the background of conversations every once and awhile. But that’s all I have to say. Good to listen to it
