  • Great Show

    Learned a lot about data centers. Maybe you could have tied the governor’s moratorium to the problem they had in Loudon County. It seems to justify what the governor is doing.

  • So great

    I miss watching Yasmin on MSNBC, but I’m REALLY enjoying having her in my podcast feed each evening. She covers 2 or 3 stories which may or may not have been covered earlier in the day. She has insightful guests who illuminate the topics so I feel more informed at the end of the day.

  • Needs a Lot Of Work

    It moves from substantial to nauseating drivel with a mountain of ads before during and after. The show is not good enough to endure the quantity of ads. Margin annotation-could do better-way better and we expect better from NBC.
