  • The Daily American

    I started liking TDA during Covid for their direct updates and then later I started listening to the podcast…. But the show has lost its way… Nowadays it’s more America news and American politics than anything to do with Australian…. I wish they went back to their roots and focused on Australian news for Australians…. Now I’m looking elsewhere…

  • Too simple to the point of being misleading

    Have listened for years and respect the core mission of TDA but lately I’ve been reconsidering my support. There’s been a couple episodes where crucial context has been missed or there has been a obvious skew in reporting and it’s getting really frustrating.

  • Like BTS but with blind spots

    I understand the need to make digestible sized news for audiences but I don’t think that means being clearly influenced by lobbyists. Disappointing for so called progressives. We see you

  • hit and miss

    there are some aspects of this podcast that I like because it’s digestible for people my age but I can’t sadly stop seeing the skewed coverage when it comes to the man-made catastrophe inflicted on Palestinians by Israel and its supporters. I saw a breakdown on Ette Media and it’s dishonest the way you guys report and give ‘context’. hopefully you grow and evolve to really speak to young progressives
