So refreshing, thanks. One of the best parts of if I get distracted and miss a bit, I can distinguish which party won the ruling, I know it was the side I supported, cause this is good news for us lefties, progressives & America.
I needed to find good news instead of doom scrolling immediately after waking up. I was born with an Eeyore personality and our current political BS was interfering with my plan to be more like Piglet & Pooh-happy and curious!
I now start every day with this news podcast which has a lot of good stories you’ll never hear on regular news or podcasts.
I’m not Piglet yet but it helps!
I get ads are revenue but i can not sit through the amount of ads on this podcast. They're too many, they're too long, and they're too repetitive. This is the first podcast that i actually like that I've unfollowed just because of how many ads i have to endure.
Lovely concept. Please improve sound and production quality. .
Thank you for lighting a candle in the darkness for me & friends I recommended this podcast too.
My only caveat would be that several minutes in a row a advertising & recommendations for other shows (Banned Camp) negatively cut into the otherwise good experience. Luckily I have learned how to time skipping ahead to restarts points in the podcast itself.
