  • Finance Voice is Awful

    Was a daily listener but having to skip over the finance guy every time because of his Uhms and Erms has made it not worth listening to anymore.

  • good, but annoying ads

    news are well-selected and informative. however, ads that play at full volume (audio track not normalized) and start with a cat scratching in pain are not acceptable!

  • Rename it to Reuters US News

    The name of this pod is a misnomer. 90% of its content is US news focusing largely on US politics. If this is what this podcast is about properly name it, but don’t pretend like you’re providing any insight on what is happening globally.

  • 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
