    Just found out she’ll get 2 hours now right after Joe & Mika to focus money & politics which she’s so great at.

    Best show on MSNow. Great schedule change. Can’t wait.

    Now if they would just release the podcast earlier I’d be in heaven.

  • Love this podcast

    I love the Money Power Politics segment.

    Symone doesn’t have the economics cred to fill in for Stephanie in my opinion. Ayman and Jen do a good job keeping the program moving and interesting. Catherine does well. My only critique of Stephanie is when she interrupts her guests. I’m a listener because I can’t stay up late to see her in person so it’s hard to follow what guests are saying around the interruptions.
