Good for information and overall, however, from what I’ve listened to so far the male host tends to ask a question and then speak over the person’s answer. It’s very frustrating to try and hear a complete answer. I prefer to listen to the information available and make a on assessment from there.
Top stories are hidden in amongst all the other clips. It would be so great to separate the top stories into its own channel.
I love the segments and topics but it’s a little frustrating that it’s all split up rather than being in a single episode. Maybe I’m missing something.
