  • OK, but somewhat bland

    The content is good, but the reporters involved are pretty bland and the show feels quite hurried. So I don't really get a sense of which kind of perspective each of them brings.

    Oh, and could the host PLEASE stop his heavy breathing directly into the microphone. Thanks.

  • They are completely out of touch with the American people!

    This past weekend more than 1000 cities around the world took to the streets in protest of our corrupt financial system and they don't even bother to discuss it. Instead they talk about polls taken that only include a 1000 Americans or less as if those polls are more reflective than what's ACTUALLY happening out in the streets. The NY Times needs to get theirs heads out of their behinds and pay attention to what's going on not what they THINK will happen. They talk as if Mr. "Corporations are ... more

  • Insightful

    I prefer New Yorker political scene, maybe because they don't keep plugging their own articles like this one does, but some really great content.

  • An Englishman's view on NY's finest reporting.

    An excellent format with all I need to know to keep me up to the mark with both the election campaign and the first one hundred days. All the troubles on President Obamas desk are analysed here from a home grown(up) perspective. In England I have only local views on what is occuring but the American view on their own must be the ideal. Well Done and I hope you keep these coming beyond the first 100 days.

  • Misspelling from NYT?

    Why is the word "Political" in the podcast logo spelled "Politcal?" Is there some pun I'm missing, or is some editor asleep at the wheel? Gud kontent thow.

  • No Slate Gabfest

    The problem is that while the reporters are great, their insights are not particularly noteworthy. Further, the constant interruption to introduce and re-introduce themselves and their show really breaks up the flow. The NYT is a fantastic newspaper, but if these folks listended to the Slate Political Gabfest, they'd know just how seriously their podcast is lacking. This political junkie finds it nearly not worth listening to.
