  • Great but too Late

    I had made listening to this podcast an essential start to the date for many months, until, rather suddenly, they started being released too late in the day. I am based in Central US time zone, so I imagine it’s even worse for the East coast. If you look at how this show is positioned, it really needs to be released 1 to 2 hours earlier.

There are a decent amount of reviews that say “Reuters is leftist” “Reuters is left leaning” “Reuters is democrat propaganda”. These are all just claiming bi... more
