My favorite way to listen to the morning news.
Brilliant and always relevant.
Nothing beats Sami’s facts (and wonderful sarcasm) in the morning !!!
Perfect way to start the morning! It’s just enough info to be informed but not overwhelmed. I LOVE when it’s released before 6am 🙌🏻
This podcast is so smart. I love the name and it’s great to have something small and digestible to get information and some giggles. I wish the sound quality was better - it’s a bit echoy and that paired with the background music can be a little difficult.
I don’t always think the humor transfers to the audio medium from the video. The video, due to edits and funny cuts, was where I started and it felt much more like friends sitting in a living room together. This feels more official somehow? more
I listen to this every morning when I wake up and I always enjoy catching up on the (almost always dark) news in a fun way. Thank you, Sami!
