- The ad though
If I never have to hear the ad again, it will be too soon. NPR plays the ad back to back to really drive how annoying it is in. I subscribe and listen to many NPR shows, and I will not listen to this one purely out of spite that I hate the ad so much. How many times can you say “sources and methods” in a 30 second window?

I always went to NPR One and would skip until I got a story like the ones they focus on in here. Glad it’s all in one place. They also do a great job. Very well produced, fair, informational, and to the point.

Apple Podcasts5Pedram GhafourifarUnited States5 days ago - Error first thing!
My first time listening to this podcast was marred by an NPR reporters incorrect assertion that President Trump faced no question on his infamous friend Mr. Epstein. A reporter from a British news outlet asked the President if he didn’t feel any any empathy for the now sacked former British Ambassador to Washington who lost his position over his connections to Epstein. The President fobbed the question back to the Prime Minister, but it was asked, contrary to the NPR reporters statement.
