I’m SO happy that the WPR politics team is podcasting again!
Hi. Just listened to the 4/4 edition. Great! Very glad you’re able to do these podcasts. Important to hear more in-depth our states focus. You guys are doing important work. Can’t wait to hear comments about today’s election on Friday! Thank You!
I’m so happy you guys got your own podcast just for state politics. It’s difficult to find a weekly state politics podcast, so you guys definitely fit that niche. Just for this I’m definitely renewing my subscription to NPR+ with my donation funding WPR. You guys are the best and I love the round table discussion idea. Keep up the great work!
This is one of the few places I go to in order to truly understand Wisconsin politics.
