  • Awesome

    I have listened to this broadcast for many years from Canada. Sad the funds are an issue for the current administration but he will not be there forever.

  • Israeli Propaganda

    I can’t believe the propaganda coming from PBS. PBS is supporting a genocide. This must be the new Trump version of PBS. I can’t subscribe anymore

  • Great content, but why so many ads suddenly?

    Re-upping my semi-annual complaint. This podcast has been my go to source for news for years - great content - but the drastic uptick in ads over the last few weeks is making me question my listenership. I wouldn’t mind an ad or two per day, but they seem to be on every story now, even the 2-minute ones!

    Seemingly once a year I have to come in here and edit my review and rating to get y’all to stop putting ads into every single segment… do you realize how inappropriate it is to have ads before AND after incredibly sensitive stories? This is just ridiculous. Before. And after. Every. Single. Segment. Come on…
