  • Straighforward, nonbiased, trustworthy

    Mostly nonbiased, which is really hard to find these days. Straightforward and to the point, sticking to the facts. 10 minute episodes make it easy for people who don't have time to watch/read the news

  • Left Woke Trash

    Why would someone want to waste time listening to this left leaning woke piece of trash? This content is far from the CENTER.

  • World Heritage

    This is a very interesting podcast. How about not just talking about strategies in the Iran war and oil prices but also talking about the destruction of UNESCO World Heritage sites in Iran? Somehow that is barely mentioned although it is a war crime.

  • Best daily news digest

    I live in Canada and can switch between CBC and NPR on air seamlessly. I listen to BBC online. BUT, I am so happy to have discovered this 10 minute daily summary. I admire Kim Vennell authoritative audio presence and her hard work (w/support of her global bureau colleagues) in compiling this digest. I am not a fanboy. Just an ex-diplomat who appreciates crisp reporting.
