6.5 minute podcast, 3 minutes of commercials / 3.5 minutes of news. I hate it.
Love how this podcast gives me daily updates on what’s happening in Los Angeles. Short and sweet.
Good reporting. They could use better editing, and cut back on the long commercial ads. And does anyone else feel like the Saturday theme music sounds depressing?
After listening to this podcast from day 1, I have unsubscribed because they reporting is increasingly one-sided and biased toward Israel and the Jewish community.
The reporting is good, but there is regularly more ads than content in each episode. I get it, need to pay the bills, but it’s forcing me to skip the listen all together.
