  • Good insider info but horrible copy read

    This is a podcast for policy/political geeks. Some insider stuff not presented in the most enjoyable way as the broadcast voices are horrible. But the worst part of the cast is the guy who does the ad reads - literally fingernails on chalkboard horrible. Thank God for the 30 second fast forward when I hear his monotone reading voice.

  • Critical daily listen

    A must listen on my daily commute, and now also loving The Readback with Andrew D, who does an awesome job. In increasingly volatile times, TDP has become a trusted, efficient daily news source.

  • Waste of time

    What a waste of time listening to this newest episode that’s basically about how great it was to see GOP members at Doral Highlighting how they were dressed and hanging out by the pool with them. I guess this is hard hitting news from Punchbowl 🙄. Why are you pretending to do political coverage while mostly discussing clothing & music
