Love the Morning Brief! When I can’t sleep at 4AM PST I put my earbuds in and listen to what’s happening in the world. Thank you for your time and talent!!
I look forward every morning to the Epoch Times’ Morning Brief. It’s clear and concise, giving me enough info to be aware of the top news stories & current events.
I listen every morning, but why must you pretend to be a human? Just let AI be AI.
“Keegan” exposes his true nature by mispronouncing a basic word at least once a morning - today it was “debuted” pronounced as “de-booted.” And same with weird health chick voice.
I start my morning with the brief.
Love that it’s straight news. Not trying to sell me an idea, view or ideology. Just talking news.
