  • Cavalier coverage of ICE

    I had enjoyed listening to this podcast for its short coverage of topics, but the most recent episode on ICE made me sick to my stomach. To promote recruitment for the country’s gestapo while they wrongfully detain people and ruin their lives is really gross to me. Laughing while describing raids was when I finally decided to turn it off and unfollow. Really disappointing.

  • Bad

    Poorly researched and subjects aren’t given the respect required. This is news, not a gossip over coffee.

  • New discovery

    Didn’t know about the WSJ podcasts. The one with Greg Ip on ‘state capitalism’ was fantastic. Just the right length and a knowledgeable source. Does make me reflect on capitalism/state ownership, there is never a perfect balance, but we sway this way and that. Certainly we are swaying big time right now.
