It’s difficult to start a day with news in these times. However, this FT news briefing gives me a look most often from a financial perspective. I find that informative, engaging and usually easy to understand. Thank you.
Easy to digest
The show gives a useful overview of developments in business, tech, politics, and how it all impacts the economy. I listen daily, but I much prefer the days when the regular host delivers the news. With all due respect to her intellect and intent, Sonja’s voice is not made for podcasts. Especially when nestled in the ear, it comes across as grating and scolding. Please give us Mark’s dulcet voice daily, and find another substitute host!
The content is great and I love it most days. Unfortunately one of the female presenters has such a strong, grating American accent I have to skip the days she’s on
I love this pod, but I cannot bare to listen to the episodes Sonya presents. I’m very sorry - she’s evidently an awesome producer - but I find her voice impossible to listen to.
