  • Perfect Daily “Scoop” 🍦of News

    I’ve been trying to avoid watching a bunch of News because it’s so gosh darn terrible lately, and it’s easy to get sucked in. I found this Podcast when it first launched, and it’s really a perfect, easy, quick insight to what’s going on. Yaz is a great interviewer, simply states facts, and does a great job at breaking everything down in a purposeful and meaningful way. I will say my favorite part is her silly puns and outros. Great podcast!

  • Excellent Daily News Fix

    I am a huge fan of this podcast - I never miss an episode. I have been particularly impressed with their coverage of all things Middle East, especially with Yasmin’s recent trip to Lebanon. I appreciate her impeccable reporting, her wit and her humor. Equally impressive are the journalists reporting from the field.

  • Good and too long

    When I first signed up I was looking for a 15 minute news recap - and now episodes are approaching 30 minutes. It’s good info, but I was drawn in initially because I thought it might be like the old radio network news from back in the day.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The U.S. and Iran Ramp Up Attacks, and Trump’s “Big News” for the Nation
Q: What do we know about how the administration plans to address election security tonight?
The White House press secretary said the speech will focus on election security, with some declassified information expected to be shared to reassure Americans about the integrity of elections, while Iran and foreign interference topics are likely to be touched on briefly.
Could Election Commission Firings Put Midterms at Risk? And Will the Suspect in Charlie Kirk’s Shooting Go to Trial?
Q: Why did the trade get put on hold?
The hold was the Raptors' decision after the league indicated that if Kawhi were punished for the alleged salary-cap circumvention, trading him could expose them to repercussions, so they paused to wait for the punishment outcome.
Ukraine, Iran and Greenland on the NATO Agenda; Will Maine Senate Candidate Graham Platner Drop Out?
Q: How might Platner's withdrawal affect the Maine Senate race and Democratic strategy?
His withdrawal would prompt a quick replacement process that could favor candidates aligned with Platner's platform, while the party seeks to avoid perceptions of establishment handpicking; contingency plans include a series of town halls or a delegate-style selection.
Ukraine, Iran and Greenland on the NATO Agenda; Will Maine Senate Candidate Graham Platner Drop Out?
Q: What does the UK ruling mean for Prince Harry's privacy case and press freedom in Britain?
The ruling ends the phone-hacking saga by finding no unlawful data extraction in the cited articles, which Harrison's view emphasizes privacy concerns and a potential shift in how privacy versus press freedom is balanced, depending on perspective.
Iran Shows Strength While Mourning Supreme Leader; Ukraine Struggles With Defense Missile Shortage
Q: Walk me through what the play was and why the call was made.
The players were going for the ball in a quick, bang-bang moment; some slowed views suggest contact on the ankle, but in real time it was rapid, leading to a controversial red card that affected the next game. The reviewer could have influenced the outcome, but precedent suggests the rule may have been applied regardless.
