Comments
1. Freddy Got Fingered is a work of art - Thank you for giving this movie the review the people know it deserves! Scenes from Freddy Got Fingered have been duplicated in other films and this style of comedy has been imitated by many after its release and rise to classic status, which echoes the fact that Freddy Got Fingered is a masterpiece! Unbelievable that Tom Green also directed it too..He created a new genre of comedy.

2. Sloppy biased reporting - For example re tiktok no mention that India had already banned it years ago. That more of a concern would be china could hack into usa systems using tiktok app access to so many devices. That more and more content is not just harmless teenage hijinks (also whoever said teens are harmless?)

3. goodbye ao scott - i disliked this episode because of the way it discussed critique, the film industry, and the present hollywood movie. i have enjoyed ao scott's reviews and admire his perspective. The Daily as an entity is not educated in film or film criticism which is revealed with each of MB "hmm's and ah's" after everything mr scott says. also the editing seemed all over the place with music and clips tossed here and there like the producers have listened to one too many radiolab (base & vile) episodes. this show was ground breaking and appreciated in the early days the trump debacle but now the show needs an overhaul. It's sense of empathy and perspective have become drudgery and a stand in for a less informed audience. It's beginning to stink.
2023-03-23
4. Excellent reviewing of critical news stories - This is a top go-to for subjects in the news that need explanation and in depth discussions with expert journalists. A worthy podcast to check out each day. Mr. Barbaro has a unique talent for speaking in slow cadence that is easy to follow and for summing up key concepts in succinct and understandable sentences. His colleague Ms. Tavernise is following suit.

5. This show is what’s wrong with the left - As a liberal leaning person, this show constantly get the message wrong. There is more fear mongering, hypocrisy and straight out ignorance on this show than most. Listen to the most recent episode with the movie critic. My advice to that guy, get off of Twitter and step into the real world. As a marvel fan, most of my friends are NOT marvel fans and I don’t “hate them” as this show would have you believe. This podcast is just a show where people go and complain that the world isn’t what it used to be. Get over yourselves NY Times.
2023-03-23
6. Congratulations NYTImes! - Over the past years you’ve transformed yourself into the National Inquirer for Ivy League graduates. Please do the world a favor and hire some real journalists. And…while you’re at it, cancel this insipid podcast and most of all rid yourself of its insufferable host.
2023-03-21
7. The Daily - I’ve been an avid listener for many years. The show is a treasure of timely topical and important news. I’ve enjoyed listening despite Michael’s melodrama, the too frequent pregnant pauses and the campy music. My interest in listening has faded a lot in the past year or so as alternative hosts have become a norm. While I appreciate Sabrina’s deep understanding of the war in Ukraine, her other interviews sound rote and electronic. I’d swear she is an AI chatbot. My request is more of Michael and less of the others. Lance

8. Sunday Read Narrators - Such a refreshing listen to hear today’s Sunday Read being told by the writer himself. So often I am compelled to listen, with the writer explaining the story at the beginning, but then be disappointed to hear the story be told by a half-human-half-robot voice. The story is so much more interesting being told by the writer, as it was their experience that creates the tone of the story being told. Please do away with the “read by” narrators!

Comments
1. Not so hard hitting news - With everything going on in the world, you’d think they’d always have something hard hitting to cover, but boy do these folks play soft. The Tik Tok discourse for example really showed what social media company NPR really backs and it’s the name of one of the biggest sponsor they have…Facebook. Just white noise for things like the fed increasing interest rates to levels equal to the financial crisis. It’s almost like a huge institution like capital one is also a sponsor…just another neo liberal organization posing under the guise of being leftist.
2023-03-23
2. Almost Unsubscribed This Morning - Woke up to NPR’s Up First being behind a subscription paywall. While searching for a reason why this was happening, they must have corrected the issue and just included an advertisement for their subscription service. I do not believe this was accidental. NPR’s ability to quickly turn it into an advertisement rather than a paywall seems disingenuous.
Always loved and supported NPR. But if this happens again, I’ll have to unsubscribe due to a breach of trust.
2023-03-23
3. Interview real experts and keep your story straight - Very frustrating to listen to Up First coverage on agricultural issues. Up First needs to interview agriculture experts when doing these stories. Food prices are not going to be effect for the next two months from these floods, try they will be effected in - months from now. Additionally, California is not the bread basket state. It’s a bit annoying to listen to these episodes and in one, Up First says that Silicon Bank did not fall within the banking regulations that were removed then now say that it was the removal of these regulations that caused this collapse and not inflation. When in fact it was the Fed increasing interest rates due to inflation that caused the back to take actions which then triggered a run on itself.
2023-03-22
4. Basically MSNBC - This Podcast is absurdly left wing. It’s blatantly obvious that the “journalists” on this show hate Republicans and Conservatives. Steve Inskeep is the worst. Real journalists should not show their political leanings. This Podcast is nothing but left wing propaganda that tries to appear like real journalism.
2023-03-17
5. Avid Up First Listener - Up First is a great way to start my day. The reporting is excellent and unbiased. Thankful for your addition of Ayesha Roscoe. Super grateful to hear Michel Martin will soon be joining the team. Ms. Martin is an exceptional journalist. I sorely miss her podcast "Tell Me More" with its diverse guest journalists and insightful discussions.
2023-03-13
6. Morning Routine - I listen everyday and my favorite is hearing Ayesha’s voice on Saturdays also I miss Audie and Sam, would live to hear more Black voices also if you’re complaining about Ayesha’s voice , it’s probably bc it’s unapologetically BLACK. She’s a Black woman and that’s how she talks, don’t be prejudiced.
2023-03-10
7. Totally bias and part of the News problem - This program has the potential to be good. I love the idea of the short snap shots of what’s going on. But you continue to report news from one side and when you talk about the other use you typically say “conservatives.” It’s not always simple. Do better!!
2023-03-06
8. short and simple intros to top news of the day - Perfect for my short commute to work! Listening daily keeps me informed, which is great because I don’t naturally interact with the news much otherwise. It’s fairly unbiased, entertaining, and brief. The hosts are direct but personable and the stories generally do reflect what seems to be top of mind in the American news cycle. If you want a deep dive into the grittier news stories of the world, this isn’t it. This podcast does what’s it’s meant to, which is provide some valuable context behind the biggest headlines of the day. Simple as that!

Tired of the lies? Tired of the spin? Are you ready to hear the hard-hitting truth in comprehensive, conservative, principled fashion? The Ben Shapiro Show brings you all the news you need to know in the most fast moving daily program in America. Ben brutally breaks down the culture and never gives an inch! Monday thru Friday.
Release date: 2023-03-25
Comments
1. Great sourced information - Ben doesn’t speak on anything without sources, and that’s why I listen to him. The star reviews are literally all just snowflakes calling him names and have likely not listened to a single episode. Sometimes the truth hurts, and that what Shapiro brings to the table, an honest truth, not this “my truth” bull crap. He is a bit too religious, but that’s just who is. I don’t agree with everything he says, but he makes valid points.
2023-03-18
2. I was wrong - Before I actually listened to what Ben was saying, I admit I had the wrong idea about him. However, I’ve been disillusioned with the left for a while, and after listening to both sides I’m starting to realize one side really does love America and truth, while the other hate the very idea of our country and want to make Lenin-Marxism the mainstream ideology. This is from a former socialist and leftist- I was wrong! Thank you Ben and the daily wire for opening my eyes and helping me decide to turn back to God
2023-03-16
3. Bloodlands of Crimea - Morgan$ is a pacifist he wants other people to fight his battles Europe is not fighting for Ukraine they’re hardly engaged at all and they want to take Crimea back from Russia versus the Bloodlands that Eisenhower Montgomery Westmoreland all the great generals of World War II Eisenhower said no way it’s not our fight Crimea Russia will never give up and Ukraine is not NATO and Zelenskyy is a beggarNeed to run to China to get a better deal they’re not NATO they never were their corrupt we don’t know if they had bio weapons labs there or anything what we know the Bidens are in there and the carries in the Pelosi’s in the corruption of the oil cubbies with Soros is a globalist construct for the neocons wake the heck up Ben Its not friendly to Israel either
2023-03-12
4. Amazing. - I used to think that Ben Shapiro was a little too angry, even if he was right. But now… as the insanity has progressed… he might not be angry enough… Seriously, thank you for being such a thorough podcaster, with facts to back up your claims, and help the rest of us have intelligent discussions with proponents of insanity. (If that is possible… suddenly questioning my sanity as I just argued for the possiblity of having an intelligent conversation with an insane person… )
2023-03-10
5. Bots Bots Everywhere!! - I love the fact that everyone that actually listens to the show gives the show five stars. However, the only other ratings are one star ratings by a bunch of bots. Ben Shapiro is one of the greatest political Podcasters, and commentators of our generation if not ever. Period. End of story.
2023-03-08
6. Year Old has a conversation with his mom! - Thank you Ben! My son and I have found a way to communicate. Your show has inspired critical thinking and thoughtful conversations on the way home from school. His favorite... Biden vs. Teleprompter Mine... When he answered a sarcastic “Nothing.” to your rhetorical question “What is Biden going to do to deal with hackers?” He’s engaged, empathetic, and thoughtful because you provide him with a morality check on current events and the courage to be proud of our conservative values.
2023-03-08
7. Most definitely, objectively, the best podcast - I listen to the show everyday at work. The show contains good information that is quickly and effectively delivered in a way that is drastically different than that of other forms of media. As a result of listening to the show, I now know significantly more about politics, economics, as well as issues regarding society and culture. Ben clearly and very quickly presents the most important news of the day as well as establishes his views on the issues. Ben is then capable of discussing those views in such a manner that those who listen are able to see exactly where he is coming from, regardless of whether or not they agree on his points. Again, a fantastic show. Well worth the listen.
2023-03-06
8. Liar Liar yamekah on fire - So Ben is the boy genius who's been riding that mediocre reputation for too long. Ben has to get the backing of billionaires to push his shows for them to finally get an audience. Only took years eh Ben? Bens the king of offering no context to news, advocating for anti semetic like Kanye, and refusing to debate any true leftists.

Comments
1. Climate change isn’t going away - do better! - I’m a Crooked Media fan, but the last year or so I’ve been so incredibly disappointed, and honestly embarrassed, by their terrible ability to report on climate change. There have been a number of instances of inaccurate reporting on things related to climate — so blatantly misrepresented that it was clear they read one headline and that was it. Also, the Pod Save guys can barely talk climate. It’s like their one blind spot. Their episodes around the IRA etc were downright cringy. And now we’re learning that they squashed Hot Take? I’m so disappointed and honestly just don’t get it. Climate change is only getting worse and it’s not going away. So why wouldn’t Crooked try to get better at reporting on it and even motivate individuals to act (like they have on so many other pressing issues)? Incredibly disappointing to learn about this side of their business. Truly thought they were the “good guys” if you will. But it seems like it is just all politics with this company.
2023-03-23
2. They destroyed Hot Take - Can’t even begin to state how DISGUSTED I am by the people behind this podcast. They bought another podcast—Hot Take—which was already popular and loved. Then they canceled it and refused to give the feed back to the shows original owners. Smh. You can’t claim to care about progressive issues then cancel a climate podcast hosted by two women of color!!
2023-03-21
3. Milk shots and the WI State Supreme Court race - OMG, this was a fantastic episode and as a WI resident and avid volunteer w/ WISDEMS, I shared this everywhere on Social media plus, I learned a few impt. deets too. THIS RACE IS CRUCIAL. I appreciated how specific you were as to WHY this is & put in perspective for me how much further WI is in not only a swing state but we could be considered ground zero as a battleground state for . We NEED to take back democracy here, and this is our one shot to do it & we won’t get this opportunity again for quite some time. So THANK YOU for doing this episode LIVE from Madison, WI as it was an informative as well as entertaining podcast. Special thanks to Ben Wikler and Mandela Barnes too!!

4. Fascist Right - it’s time - I am woke - Awake, educated and aware - the Fascist right are a danger to the world and its time to call it by what it is - not MAGA - this is FASCISM - pure and simple - the Fascist Right in your country is a major problem with its leader residing in Fascist Florida - call it out
2023-03-20
5. Used to love you… - BUT the rabid ageism and unrelenting snarkiness of you pol buddy Jon Lovett is turning me off - and so, one turn deserves the other. I mean, if you substitute “gay” “black” or “fat” for every time JL mentions Biden’s age you’ll see what I mean. Just hope you never get “gayer” Lovett. (Substitute with the tag that offends you most).
2023-03-19
6. Thorough analysis of topical political issues - Appreciation the in depth review of current political issues, both serious and humorous. The hosts are knowledgeable and engaging, providing thoughtful analysis and advice which has helped me become a better informed and more engaged voter. Great stuff!
2023-03-18
7. / Episode - disappointed by the whole “social awkwardness attacks” - I love the show and look forward to each new episode on Tuesdays and Thursdays. However, I was a bit triggered today by the shots taken at Ron DeSantis’s voice and social awkwardness. I hate and fear the guy, what he is doing to Florida, and what he could do to America if he was elected president. But, to quote a comment I recently saw on YouTube about a piece on Ron DeSantis, “Whether it’s in a political setting or not, these designations of someone being a "weirdo" because they are socially awkward is kind of demeaning to every "weirdo" that is not an authoritarian piece of trash.” You get the idea. There are a lot of people who are not comfortable with social interaction, including people with Asperger’s and autism. That doesn’t make them despicable, doesn’t mean they hate human interaction, and doesn’t make them deserving of judgement and/or mockery. You guys are better than that. Now, if you guys want to say DeSantis hates people and provide examples that justify your claim and that show people why this is scary, that’s another story. And I don’t see any problem with commenting on how social awkwardness might be a con for when it comes to winning electors during a presidential campaign. It’s a reality - although I would argue that for all his charisma, Donald Trump is really socially awkward and that didn’t prevent him from winning in . But hitting on the mere social awkwardness aspect is a road you should not take.
On an another note: THANK YOU for your discussion on the oil drillings recent decisions. I appreciated your analysis. I wish Joe Biden had people from his government discussing this decision and explaining it during interviews, etc. (even if he doesn’t necessarily need or want to disclose all the ins and outs). It would help fellow Democrats understand this decision and feel less betrayed. I also appreciated your comments about how not everything is about politics. It infuriates me to hear every decision made by politicians discussed through the lense of “politics” over and over in the media. This just reinforces the notion that politicians are making decisions just for optics and to be reelected. How about belief, conviction, and, as you explained here, pragmatism?
Keep up the great work!
2023-03-17
8. Why analyze their campaigns in depth? - While we do need to hear news regarding what the Republican Party is doing, why spend SO much time advising Desantis and Trump on how to better run their campaigns? Could we please hear more about what WE should be and are doing to be successful (and opinion about what we’re doing wrong)? Maybe more discussion about the philosophy and history of the Democratic and Republican Parties and how/why they are evolving? I value your collective experience, intelligence, and sincere concern about our country.

Comments
1. Dan is absolutely right! - Dan’s point about the Trump campaign wasting time on trivial things rather than focusing on what’s important is spot on! Trump is better than this. He has made such incredible contributions to our culture, it’s unfortunate to see him take the left’s bait and dive down into their mire when he can lift us all to much greater heights.
2023-03-22
2. The Biden Titanic - The Biden Titanic is in adverse waters! Amongst its passengers, Democrats and Republican Rhinos! The approaching ice berg is getting bigger (Trump Voters). From the Banks, screams ignored, only the uncoordinated commands of the captain. Engines hum (Money Printing Press)! Leaks confirm a Climate Change on the way!
2023-03-19
3. Top Notch - Dan has great insight and has done a great job exposing the radical left and big gov bureaucrats. The one thing I have to say regarding recent events, If the Feds caused this banking crisis how are we not supposed to question that this was all done on purpose as a way for Biden and the dems to quietly take control of the banking system. I almost guarantee if we see a collapse of the banking system most likely intentional we will see the government pushing for digital currency.
2023-03-16
4. Long time listener - I have listened for several years now; not from the very beginning, but a long time. I follow -Dan’s: advice I listen to other podcasts and I follow up on the information he puts out there. I have yet to find him lying about anything. He always ahead of the curve when he puts out information and I live how he goes back to his previous shows to show how he informed us this was going to happen. It makes him all the more credible and trustworthy.
2023-03-15
5. Lost in Translation - The Dan Bongino show is one of the best podcasts available for the actual facts. Always on top of breaking news and details you won’t hear anywhere else.
There are so many good things about this show..but the hard thing is than Dan screams through it. Nails on a chalkboard loud if you have earphones in your ears and lower the volume if on speaker because your neighbours will think you are being assaulted. Is there a way you could lower the temperament so that your loyal audience can enjoy the show without feeling they are in a football stadium?
Hope so because it’s absolutely one of the best.
2023-03-14
6. Presidential Executive Order ( Authority)) - Dan. What law or authority by executive order did Biden have to shut down American fossil fuel industry? He shut down private industry with his signature. Doesn’t it require Congress to follow up with laws? How was he allowed to wreck the American fuel system and no one in congress challenged him?
2023-03-13
7. Questions for Dan - Dan, who and why do you think someone is advising Trump to keep saying “operation war speed and COVID vaccine was the best thing that happens saved millions and millions of lives some may say” I think this will hurt his voting base, but somehow he keeps repeating it. Great show always quoting your wisdom and recommending it to others. Thanks,
-Pied

8.

1. The New State of Unions - Eye opening view of the new generation of young workers reimagining unions. I am a retired GM Union Electrician who thought unions were being canceled and hear through this podcast, younger workers reimagining unions gives me hope for the future of democracy in America. I continue to stand for Unions and Democracy.

2. Great Information, Awesome Journalist! - Thank you for keeping us informed on important, useful, inspiring, actionable and need-to-know subject matter. I love seeing you on CNN; your analysis is top notch and praiseworthy. If in your cards, I hope you get your own show sooner vice later. Thanks again, you’re doing an excellent job and service for your community and around the globe!
2023-02-03
3. Thank you for continuing the story. - I am a listener of many different kinds of podcast. Usually it’s true crime of some sort or weird paranormal stories. But I found this from watching CNN and I just want to say thank you for continuing stories that I’m sure many my self included want a little more from stories or stories that haven’t got coverage and one would never think was a story. I will be listening every week.
2023-01-30
4. THIS is Journalism! - I love Audie Cornish. She’s a world-class journalist and I’ve listened to her for years. What thrills me about her journalism career and this podcast is she’s bringing us interesting topics for which she politely challenges her guests to give honest, genuine answers, rather than being overly concerned with political correctness. She expects honesty, integrity in truth, something she represents as a journalist. Thank you so much Audie. I’m so happy I found this podcast!
2023-01-25
5. Smart and Deeper Dive Into the Topics - Got turned onto The Assignment from Anderson Cooper’s All There Is podcast and I’m hooked. I don’t listen to a lot of podcasts but this one is now required listening. Also grateful its only or so minutes. Fascinating topics and excellent interviewing by Audie Cornish. Thank you!!!
2022-12-21
6. Finally! A voice journalism NEEDS! - I Just listened to the episode on OnlyFans and adult entertainers and as a content creator myself I was overjoyed to hear somebody giving a voice to those whom most people take advantage of in their private times but scorn and ridicule in public. Audie was fair, she was inquisitive and she wasn’t afraid of touching upon subjects that have traditionally been considered off limits in the world of public radio. I’m excited to hear more of what she has to offer! Kudos!
2022-12-06
7. More please - I listened to the episode about the parents turned school board members. I felt that Ms. Cornish was gracious, fair and gave the women time and space to state and reflect upon their positions. She also challenged them a bit, and rightly so, to clarify their positions instead of just talking in bumper sticker lingo. It’s a professional skill set that all of the listeners can benefit from. I didn’t agree at all with the board members who were interviewed, but I can empathize with their need to be heard as parents.
2022-12-01
8. This is a much needed Voice - This time the podcast algorithm got it, right! I have been a follower of Audie Cornish, since all things considered first started. Straight out of college, I found myself listening to this poignant journalist, I gravitated to the style. Leaning towards conversational journalism versus traditional dictation journalism. Listening to the Assignment, it alludes a different feeling than All things considered, I believe it is fluidity. This approach feels more open and I’m enjoying it.

Comments
1. Refreshing - It’s difficult to find a news source like morning wire. This podcast is balanced and fair. This podcast includes context which is missing in most news channels. morning wire does not attempt to inflame, one political side or another and its hosts deliver the news without condescension.
2023-03-19
2. My daily go to - Excellent journalism and research is presented in an objective manner though it does lean slightly right of center. It’s a quick but thorough understanding of the most important topics that affect each of us every day. The only part I find slightly annoying is the background music.
2023-03-18
3. Mostly appreciate this show! - This is a solid min report of a couple major stories. Our household follows a few podcasts and substacks and avoid mainstream news because we feel like this show is doing a much better job reporting without emotional zingers. These episodes are short and straightforward and try to highlight both the opponent and proponent opinion when reporting.
That said, after listening for a year now, I have noticed a trend on this show of reporting highlights specific to typical conservative buzz (think schooling failures in a progressive culture, crime rates in big cities, and economy woes). My constructive feedback would be that Morning Wire avoid becoming the NPR for the red side.
2023-03-18
4. Regarding the March , Episode … - Carlson edited the clips of the J video he showed to push the narrative that the protestors were just peaceful tourists. The police were not giving the Q Anon Shaman and other protesters “tours”. They were severely outnumbered by the protesters and were trying to descalate things until back up could arrive. And you can go to Pro Publica’s website and watch a lot of video from J - including videos that the protesters posted themselves on Parler.
2023-03-13
5. Good balance - I listen to a axios for one side of things and the morning wire for other side of things. It’s unbelievable how different are the topics that are covered . I feel, this way. I get the full spectrum if actual happenings domestically and internationally. Though, I have to admit, the morning wire strikes closer to my interests. I would not say that this show has no bias.
2023-03-13
6. Cannabis dangers episode. - Oh boy this is right up the Michael Knowles gossip ally. lol. I am a fan of the DW and Knowles but this anti cannabis rhetoric is over the top. I have consumed cannabis for many years straight and recently quit with no issues. I also have a pregnant wife of mos. Many people benefit from cannabis use over pharmaceutical drugs. Obviously kids should not consume it for recreational use. And alcohol is by far much much more dangerous to consume and get behind the wheel that’s undeniable. Same with pharmaceutical drugs being undeniably more dangerous.
2023-02-27
7. Former NPR Up First Listener - Best daily news update. I used to listen to Up First on my drive to work but their obsession with Trump during his presidency clouded their news coverage. While coming from a conservative perspective Daily Wire delivers the daily news succinctly and with wide variety. / recommend
2023-02-19
8. Dennis Karpf - I never thought that Morning Wire would adopt the false narrative from the Left of “cycle or escalation of violence” in Israel rather than factually reporting on military strikes against Iran and its murderous proxies distinct from barbarous mass murder by Arabs of Israeli civilians at worship. The Left continues to distort moral reality even at Morning Wire.
2023-01-31
9. Memphis Tenn. - I once listen to a very smart black women, who at one point in her life was a leader for BLM in an Indiana chapter. She gave a very heartfelt analogy on the ongoing media dump of police brutality videos being the same as what happened during slavery. Where when slave owners when killling a slave would bring all the other slaves to watch… that is what our disgusting media does every time something like this happens it’s disgusting. We need to change the culture around what blacks tell their children around the police so That when confronted by police they don’t run or fight & police need better training.

2. A good man - Matt Walsh isn’t mean. He is choosing to stand up to the bullies on both sides and setting an example for other men. He is fighting against the child groomers who are killing and hurting the young and impressionable. God bless you and your family for the work you do. Keep up the good fight.
2023-03-24
3. I would give Zero Stars if I could - Matt Walsh is the definition of a bigot he claims to know how the world should work and he presents his facts in a way where he might be able to sway people who are on the fence. But the truth is he lives in a black and white s world and he wants everyone to be that way. A world where men are the bread winners and woman stay home and take care of a yank of children. A world where if you are different in any way you tamp it down and you follow the status quo. The problem is the world is not and has never been black and white it’s always had shades of gray. There have been gay, transgender and non-binary people since the creation of earth. There is actual evidence to support this. This man spews hate and malice and claims to know what God wants and how God created the world. But since he is in fact not an immortal who has been here since the beginning how the world would he know what it was like in the past. All I can say is that I pray for his six kids and that they can grow up and learn that their fathers bigoted ways are not how a person should live.

4. PLEASE ANSWER - I love my sweet daddy Walsh he tells me what is happening and it is accurate. I also have a question, are you related to someone named Joe Walsh, because he used to be my music teacher at a charter school in lone tree, Colorado and looked exactly like you if you had a unibrow and was overweight
2023-03-17
5. Him from Powderpuff Girls - I would love to hear you give a character breakdown of Him from Powderpuff girls, a cartoon when I was a kid. The creator of the show seems to be prophetic in that it portrayed a devilish character, pretending to be another gender that goes by it’s pronoun and goes after children.
2023-03-12
6. One of the bravest most honest shows out there! - Great show again Matt. We all agree with what your saying. Anyone with Conservative Christian beliefs will agree with all you say. We need more Courage, we need to PUSH BACK against the multiple ideologies that are destroying our children who are our future.
2023-03-10
7. Matt is gangsta!! - To be honest, when I first began listening to Matt, I wasn’t really into him. He seemed like an annoying grumpy old man and I didn’t listen often. But eventually I began to understand his dry humor and heartfelt faith and passion for defending those most vulnerable. Now he is my most anticipated listen every day. I like all the DW hosts, but Matt has soared above all the rest. Congratulations;)
2023-02-25
8. Edited review: I mostly enjoy this show - Matt has insightful commentary and says truths others don’t want to say. I mostly enjoy listening. However, as I’ve listened to this show more, I’ve noticed Matt tends to dehumanize people who are “the enemy.” He also tends to defensively react to what people think about him a lot, which I think is distracting. I wish he would stop doing those things- it would be stars!
2023-02-25
9. Outstanding content - Matt I love your unabashed and unashamed method of delivering the hard truths as you see the world. Scary is the world we live in and it does not seem to be getting any better. The parenting style of every kids gets a trophy on top of the world of / social media has created a country of snowflakes who dislike America. I pray that we can find a way out of this mess we are in. Keep being brave we need you right now!

Storytelling, insight and compelling perspective on American culture and politics. Glenn Beck's quick wit, candid opinions and engaging personality have made this one of the most popular radio programs in America. Watch The Glenn Beck Radio Program, Monday through Friday, 9am - 12pm ET on BlazeTV. www.BlazeTV.com/Glenn
Release date: 2023-03-25 Genre:News > News Commentary
Comments
1. Earn the th star - Loved the latest podcast interview Vivek, but kept getting annoyed by Glenn constantly going “MmHmmm” in the microphone. If I turned it into a drinking game I would have passed out minutes into it. Not up to radio hall of fame standards. Fantastic interview otherwise but wish it was longer than the hour format
2023-03-18
2. Great Show Throttled By Apple - One of my go to podcasts, if I’m in a crunch I listen to the “Best of” even though I prefer the full show. Have been a pod cast listener of the show for years. Over the last several years I’ve noticed issues with the shoe auto updating, play back errors etc that have just become worse. Look for Podcast . apps as alternate platform. Never have issues with the show there. As well as a majority of my other Podcasts I listen too.
2023-03-16
3. After Rush, This is really the only place to listen - Since Rush passed on I have realized that there is really no one else who is honest and not afraid to stand up to the crazy. Except Glenn. I have listened to the other so called conservative shows but they all sound tempered and try to stay out of controversy. Glenn Beck is honest and not afraid. Stu is ok also I guess.
2023-03-16
4. Look forward to every episode - Glenn is my favorite podcast! I eagerly await his program everyday! Him and Stu make me think, but more importantly they make me laugh. Although they cover all the difficult topics of the day and the diagnosis is usually not sunshine and roses, they somehow manage to interject humor and hope. You can’t figure out how to best prepare for a problem if you don’t first understand the magnitude and extent of the situation at hand (the doom and gloom part) but once you’ve gleaned an understanding you can research, institute a plan, and take measures either as an individual or as a collective on how to, in a civil way proceeding in mitigating the impact. I have faithfully listened to Glenn and his team for many years and truly appreciate their program.
2023-03-07
5. The Most Trustworthy Voice in Media - Long Time Listener First Time Reviewer. Glenn brings truth to his audience every day whether it supports or runs counter to his preconceived understanding. He is a passionate, honest man pursuing what is right for the American people. At times, Glenn’s honesty can be depressing, but he always (eventually) offers listeners a hopeful message explaining why and how persistent faith in God and our nation’s foundational principles are best. His interviews are engaging, thoughtful, and provocative particularly when his guests disagree. Glenn shows how to have respectful conversations with “the other side” of any issue. Not shouting, but seeking to understand then discussing differences of facts observed, opinions and ways forward.
2023-02-26
6. Independent voter - I love the Glenn message! Think for yourself! Do your own research! Beware of what you hear from the news reports! And last but not least, beware of the non scientists of the world trying to act like the words come from God himself. Independent thinking should be the next big trending topic. WAKE UP AMERICA!
2023-02-14
7. Bill O’ Reilly - Bill O’Reilly is so freaking clueless why do you still have him on your show, he should retire. Remember, he’s the one who yelled GET THE JAB at the one of your programs. And he YELLED stop picking on the transgender‘s as if the issue was just bullying in high school. And now he sees no issue with the pipeline sabotage..
2023-02-10
8. My Favorite podcast - Glenn Beck uses his spiritual intelligence and humor to interpret what is going on in our world today. Deep thinking evaluation of our balance between good and evil. He is always factual and careful to never confuse facts with opinions and let’s you know where to verify information.
Worth your time and very entertaining.

Every Tuesday and Friday, tech journalist Kara Swisher and NYU Professor Scott Galloway offer sharp, unfiltered insights into the biggest stories in tech, business, and politics. They make bold predictions, pick winners and losers, and bicker and banter like no one else. After all, with great power comes great scrutiny. From New York Magazine and the Vox Media Podcast Network.
Release date: 2023-03-21 Genre:News > News Commentary
Comments
1. Regularly listener, Kara fan, - But I did not have on my bingo card that Scott would buy into the knee-jerk blame the victims routine in this ridiculous and dangerous culture war, a la Bill Maher. And, belittle Kara. Something weird is going on with Scott’s focus on men in society. Seeing a clear problem with men being left behind is one thing, but losing sight of the humanity of “woke” people (read LGBT) undermines what Scott us trying to accomplish.
2023-03-24
2. Scott’s pro-tech layoffs are inhumane and baseless - Scott’s take on the tech layoffs is completely inhumane and capitalistic. People lose their livelihoods from layoffs and his response is “no one will miss them”. His narrative that companies “over hired” and have lots of “fat to cut” is completely baseless. No data or evidence supports his claim. Instead, he roots for shareholders and execs to get richer at the expense of the middle class. Scott’s goal is to protect the rich at all costs.
2023-03-22
3. Snarky - I used to really look forward to these podcasts but anymore it’s more snarky than informative with too much sexual innuendo from Scott. They lost me completely when they jumped on the cancel Joe Rogan wagon train. i gave them another try then they led the mob to go after Musk and they became unbearable Kara’s would benefit from some humility, her ego and name dropping is insufferable. They’ve gone too far in participating in the polarization of our culture and have lost their charm and reduced themselves to dunking on companies, VCs, CEOs (Scott’s obsession of Jack D then Musk) and politicians without much else to offer. No original thinking or ideas. Just snarky announcers.
2023-03-22
4. Beautiful Humans - Today’s episode was amazing! Your interview with Hannah Dreier on her recent piece was extraordinary. Scott, your generous compliment to her made me tear up. I am inspired by the two of you in so many ways. Your wisdom, empathy and kindness shine through in all that you touch. What a gift you are. Thank you.
2023-03-10
5. Please stop, Scott - I generally enjoy this show despite Scott’s reflexive brand-building but this most recent episode his tiresome bothsidesism and absolute ignorance around trans issues really made me angry. Scott, please, please listen to trans people and the parents of trans kids before you spout erroneous assumptions. Surely you can do better.
2023-03-08
6. Too much name-dropping - Scott Galloway is very interesting. Kara Swisher name-drops constantly. The patter about travel sounds like bragging and is boring. A minute or two of pleasent banter about life is fine, but it feels like being seated next to two people on a plane who can’t stop talking about themselves. Again, I think there are interesting insights here but the constant bragging about their lives gets old.
2023-03-03
7. Kara ‘n Master - March : of Pod: “Tesla’s remarkable … it’s obviously overvalued.” Hence, children, we hear what and who Kara values above all else - Her Master Elan and Share Price “Supportive of Elan” As per Kara’s underling on December. Nah. Try blindly obedient for years. Kara knows who makes those offshore deposits, and when to hide, such as last week when Elon blew up Twitter and Tesla and Kara ran not one but two Best Ofs and otherwise said nothing.
2023-03-03
8. Kara is annoying - I find Kara Swisher super annoying with her constant interruptions of other people talking with yeah, yeah, go ahead yeah but, anyway, and so on. Hey Kara, maybe you need to go back to the drawing board and learn professional hosting skills. Learn to zip it. Second, she does this annoying thing of saying “anyway” like a hundred times during a show. Third, she goes into an unintelligible mumbling thing speaking fast under her breath and then STARTS SHOUTING! Fourth, she is constantly sick with an unlistenable voice that should not be podcasting. I like listening to Scott, the other half, but find Kara Swisher much too annoying.
2023-03-02
9. Would be five stars, but… - I absolutely love this show, but only because of Scott Galloway who always establishes interesting lines of thinking, and projects original observations as well as very creative/fresh opinions. Kara is an insufferable, namedropping, self-ingratiating egomaniac, and has been for years. Good God. Please just go do your other podcast and let Scott (and a new cohost of his choice) rock!

1. A few more per day, please - I’ve been listening for several years now. It’s how I start my day - a quick briefing of the day’s headlines. I admit I did not need to listen to each hour’s episode, but I would like to hear more than the two per day I seem to be getting now. Maybe four? Six?
Also, Jack Spear and Nora Rahm have wonderful voices. All of them do. All different, all pleasant. Don’t mind the negative nay sayers. Thank you!
2023-02-10
2. Good, but….. - I like this podcast and the nice minute summary of news, but why is there only one episode available at a time? I missed one day once and thought I’d have a few to listen to, but no. Please consider leaving up at least the previous day’s podcasts, they are taken down way too soon.
2023-01-26
3. Mostly horrible newsreaders and substandard reporting. Annoying ads. - Super-annoying, full of advertising and marketing. Some of the newsreaders can barely read and speak (Jack Spear, Nora Rahm) or have speech impediments. Awful. Furthermore, it comes with really annoying ads and promotions that are in your face ALL THE TIME! It’s not enough that they get massive support from hundreds of sources they have to annoy listeners with ads. My twitchy finger is hovering near the delete button :)
2022-12-29
4. Love that they only keep most current episode - I have tried following other news podcasts that release multiple episodes per day, but it just got so confusing when I’d miss a few of the episodes throughout the day. My podcast library was way to cluttered and I had tons of out of date episodes downloaded to my phone. NPR has a way better system.
2022-12-22
5. Not inclusive - Surprised how much NPR reports on wildfires in OR or CA but only a brief blip about those in poorer Hispanic states like New Mexico. A good lot of it it also non-news, like the fact that twitter added an edit button…that’s advertising. I find, though the tone is meant to present an air of inclusivity and civility, the reporting is meant to address the concerns of affluent whites. As a Hispanic listener, I feel we are especially excluded from NPR’s national narrative.
2022-09-12
6. years of record. - I have listened to NPR for years. I have watched PBS for more than that. I shudder to think where we might be without the perspectives brought to light through these channels. I will go to my grave knowing that I did not waste my time with public broadcasting. By the people, for the people.
2022-08-16
7. I’m appalled - The advertisement for NPR I just heard after the minute round-up makes me sick. It says “Are you obsessed with NPR? “ Do you want NPR to be you personality? or something to that effect. I don’t have the stomach to go back abd listen. What are you thinking! You are a NEWS organization I depend on to provide information, not identity. Are you playing the FOX game? Very disappointing.
2022-07-23
8. Great hourly update news! - The only change I might consider is some kind of a reminder letting me know I’ve missed a certain number of episodes. I can also imagine an alert heard only by me via bluetooth or the phone to let me know (chosen what, where and how many etc. all of the above chosen by me in “settings”). I’m not sure what algorithm this would require, or how difficult it may be to implement, but it would make staying up to date/hour even easier!
Thanks for your consideration, juli
2022-06-25
9. Episodes get removed too soon - While listening to the episode that is most recent on my phone, it can suddenly be unavailable, because NPR has removed it (and it was streaming directly). This can particularly happen if I pause it for a few minutes. Changing my settings to keep multiple shows has only helped some, but even then the most recent hasn’t necessarily been downloaded. I agree with Byron D that keep at least one more than only their latest would make a really BIG difference.

The most important stories, explained through the lens of business. A podcast about money, business and power. Hosted by Kate Linebaugh and Ryan Knutson. The Journal is a co-production from Gimlet Media and The Wall Street Journal.
Release date: 2023-03-23 Genre:News > Daily News
Comments
1. Good but not Great - It’s my personal opinion that the Journal focuses more on sensational stories then telling the full story. I also find that the Journal doesn’t provide an overview of views regarding the topic they they’re covering. If you’re looking to listen to something interesting, this is a good podcast but if you’re looking for a well rounded perspective on an issue/topic, this may not be the podcast for you. Typically the podcast is more surface oriented and has less depth of coverage.
2023-02-10
2. Just off - It could really be good, but I feel like it’s not rigorous enough. The WSJ colleagues they bring on invariably sound so under-researched. The episodes also often feel superficial or unresolved. Go deeper / ask better questions in the short time you have or be less wedded to every episode being bitesize. (And Ryan’s faux Barbaro delivery is so gratingly earnest and stilted, I wish he’d loosen up juuust a bit.)
2023-01-28
3. A one- sided podcast - This is a left leaning podcast, and that is very disappointing. it is not disappointing that it is left leaning, but that it portrays itself as straight journalism and not opinion-based. There are always many facets to a story, but when facets
that the commentator does not agree with are brushed over, sanitized, vilified or completely ignored, that is a problem.
2023-01-23
4. Biased against businesses - I started listening to this is to get unbiased reporting on key trends in business. I don’t mind if someone is editorializing to either polar extreme when that’s what they purportedly offer and live it accordingly. This podcast sells itself as a business trends podcast but clearly has an agenda. Once again, I don’t mind learning more about either poles perspectives. This one isn’t living what it’s marketing though. Not why I historically went to the WSJ for info.
2023-01-14
5. The Journal is like an audio version of WSJ mobile push notifications - Reporting is extremely shallow and will not provide new insights or understanding into any given issue beyond what you can already read in the headlines. Please get some hosts who are actually capable of asking meaningful questions like Michael Barbaro, Ezra Klein, or Terry Gross. More importantly, please interview experts who actually understand the subject at hand instead of just interviewing your fellow WSJ journalists who only have a surface-level understanding of the topic.
2023-01-07
6. Drugs or the War on Drugs? - Interesting perspective that you did not even tap your finger to push back on. Attorney Entrepreneur said that the War on Drugs had devastated black and brown communities. Seems to me it was the drugs that devastated those communities and not the war on drugs. I suppose by the same thinking, it’s not Fentanyl but the War on Fentanyl that has killed so many white people, or maybe the Fentanyl kills white people but the War on Fentanyl harms black and brown. Not sure how red and yellow are impacted, but I do know it ain’t easy being green.
2022-12-31
7. Fire Kate Linebaugh immediately - This should be an excellent podcast but it is not for one reason: Kate Linebaugh. Her interview with Anthony Fauci is the worst example of “journalism” ever and it is hard to believe that she was not fired for this journalistic malpractice. Everyone can have a bad day, but this is far, far worse. Anyone with a podcast like this should be “sentenced” to listen to hundreds of hours of the BBC’s HARD TALK, while Kate Linebaugh’s disgraceful podcast with Fauci should be called “Puff Piece” or “Provide a Platform Without Challenge to a Pathological Liar.” Kate was unprepared, uninformed, and unwilling to challenge Fauci on virtually any serious point. Do other listeners feel the same? The WSJ should have standards and accountability. To meet the standards and hold people accountable, Kate Linebaugh should be fired immediately. Have you no shame, Kate Linebaugh, for such a pathetic disservice to your listeners?
2022-12-29
8. Cannabis story caution - Regarding “Highs and lows of diversity in cannabis” story, you might want to mention that while cannabis is big business, children who consume cannabis have xs higher risk of activating genes for schizophrenia than non-pt smoking children.
When you talk about the cannabis business, you risk glorifying and normalizing a dangerous substance that regularly ruins people’s lives…
There is a story there if you want to tell it. Ask any medical or psychiatric provider in any state where is has been legalized and you will hear the devastation. Let’s not normalize pot as if it is just another benign commodity on the market. It is a serious psychoactive substance now available in doses never before seen on planet Earth—doses young brains cannot safely tolerate— thanks to the greedy cannabis industry. Beware.
2022-12-23
9. Lackluster clickbait journalism - Regardless of what you think of the WSJ, their attempt at a meaningful podcast is pathetic at best. Each daily episode barely cracks min on average, touching on days-old headlines with superficial coverage. You won't hear any "scoops" on this podcast. The piece that compelled me to write this review is Episode of "Uncontrolled Substances", a Serial-style hack-job, complete with gratuitous audio clips, musical interludes, and "pregnant pauses"—all of which serve to make a "feature length" podcast out of a paragraph essay for AP Language. The level of journalism is on par with that of a morning talk show on network television. It's incredible that episodes in, WSJ is attempting to use a suffering family's story to support their objectively uninteresting and unoriginal thesis: mental health care is bad, pharmaceutical companies are bad—meanwhile the underlying story is completely obscured. The subject of this story in particular committed suicide with a handgun which was unsecured and available to the adolescent struggling with depression—this episode lays out a thin case that the wanton prescription of the most popular and benign anti-depressant by the evil, unnamed nurse practitioner, fed a company line to push "dangerous suicide pills" (my words) on youths from the top-down. Sure, that could have played a role... but how about the gun (apparently one of many) he used to kill himself? It is unfortunate that the WSJ has to overplay and publicize a tragic accident in order to make their podcast ring true. I have no respect for Cerebral and no intention to defend them, yet, I am disappointed by this exploitative, overproduced sitcom-length theater that masquerades as poignant journalism, and I am sure I am not the only one.

Comments
1. Season three episode one - If you are looking for a story that goes into the justice system but also has a interesting story this is the podcast. Sarah Koenig makes sure the listeners understands the story step by step. During the podcast they use old lips that Sarah goes back and forth explainingn why people are doing this. This was great listening to and totally recommended for others.
2023-03-08
2. Great Episode - I think this is a great episode of Serial. I love how they always go in-depth into what they are talking about and how so much information also has people in the story so you don't get bored of the same person. Usually, I like to listen to podcasts on youtube so I can watch them talk but this podcast just keeps drawing me back in and always keeps me thinking so I don't need to see the actual people speaking. I really think people should watch this. It goes in-depth and you also learn the backstory and the now. You also get to learn things that we can do to better the justice system in America and you learn things that relate to your episode.
2023-03-08
3. We Were Three - Sorry but as soon as Nancy Updike decided to interject that she ‘didn’t know how people who live in a country with a functioning healthcare system’ I started to lose interest. So, if you embrace that line of thinking ( and that all healthcare should be free) you will at least feel right at home. Episode is somewhat interesting if you like hearing about people who can’t think for themselves but then Episode quickly degenerates into a story about truly unlikeable (and perhaps not believable) Rachel. Ten minutes into the second episode I had enough and shut it off. Don’t waste your time.
2023-02-28
4. Gross, unveiled racism with no journalism in sight - If you seek unbiased or fact-based reporting, “Nice White Parents” is not for you. If you want a hate piece targeting white people, then enjoy this misleading propaganda. This podcast spews a slanted viewpoint that white parents are everything, and the only things, wrong with NYC schools. Whether they enroll their kids, fail to enroll them, run the PTA or merely participate — it is all criticized as the narrator tries to prove her prejudiced point of view. This self-proclaimed “reporter” admits in episode that she ignored evidence of white parents working on yet another integration plan because she decided, without any investigation, that their effort was inadequate and uninformed. All the while she criticizes every move white parents make, she refuses to criticize the POC who wrongly accuse the white PTA parents of stealing money. She neither acknowledged the fact that the non white students clearly don’t want the white students present nor criticized their blatant racism. And while belittling the participating white PTA parents (sole reason: their participation numbers are higher than nonwhite participants), she gives a free pass to the non-white parents who chose not to participate. She never asked why aren’t the minority parents more involved. Instead, she apportions all the fault of the NY school inequality to white parents — and only white parents — while inadequately trying to prove that everything white parents do is wrong. I listened because Sarah Koenig’s name is attached. I am embarrassed that she put her name on such poorly reported project. I expected more from Sarah. Her credibility has taken a hit by this lackluster race-baiting piece. The narrator here only researched, or only included, facts and opinions that support her desired story-outcome. She did not diligently follow facts; she selectively sought ones that aligned with the woke, white-shaming picture she sought to paint. This is only half a story and it was told with the sole purpose of making an anti-white propaganda statement. This was a shameful and gross misuse of this formerly-reputable platform. I’d give negative stars if possible.
2023-02-22
5. Ok serial - do all your serials need to be about crime? If you like comedy then the best serial for comedy is “Community News podcast” with Paul and Sasha. It’s the serial for Hilarious, ridiculous, hyper local community and funny neighborhood nonsense that goes on everywhere. What serial is to crime...Community News is to comedy. listen to both. My favorite serial, episodic podcasts.
2023-02-09
6. Infatuation and prioritization - Great podcast series. Very well produced. I think season and Adnan’s case / exhortation in particular is a couple well spoken women (Koenig and McLean) becoming infatuated with a charismatic killer. A single witness in a library (McLean), some collected evidence that was deeming to be unrelated, and different interpretations of cell phone tower data is enough to ignore several eyewitness who were present when Jay and Adnan spoke about the crime, call recipients, and physical evidence that matches testimony. The explanation presented is ‘witnesses forget’, and dependence on tower data, from towers that have changed over the years. Specifically how they prioritize and hand off calls. Koenig should’ve spoken with Hae’s friends and family more. The ‘possessive stalker’ behavior exhibited by Adnan was brushed over in episode , and never again comes up!?! Because Koenig is infatuated with him. A fact she acknowledges in multiple episodes. Adnan ultimately benefitted from stoked racial tensions of the day, and is a free man today.

7. Another Guilty American Journalist - ALL minorities are persecuted and innocent, regardless of their ignorance and inability to comply with laws. Stereotypical, bleeding heart view, all complaining with no practical solutions to problems, just whining. The white establishment is inherently evil. Makes you wonder why the entire world wants to come and live in our white supremacist country? The journalism is good, thanks to Ira I’m sure.
2023-01-31
8. Has aged poorly. Disappointed - Season of Serial was the first podcast I ever listened to and opened the door to the podcasting world. A stoned liberal at the time with little to no critical thinking skills, I wholeheartedly bought the notion that perhaps Adnan was innocent. I relistened to season recently and concluded that yea, he totally did it and the podcast gives Adnan the benefit of EVERY doubt pointing to racism and xenophobia as the reasons why our justice system could possibly find him guilty. I certainly don’t know what really happened, but I know Adnan is a liar or at least he’s a half liar with an awful spotty memory. Season was ok, but boring. Bergdahl was painted a bit too rosey in my opinion. I couldn’t get past episode one with season out of sheer boredom and disinterest in swallowing anymore propaganda, so I can’t fairly comment. Based on the comments I’m reading, don’t waste your time unless you can believe the hogwash information coming from media concerning Covid the last couple of years. I’m not even a dyed in the wool Republican, but trash like what this podcast and others adjacent like it (NYT, NPR, etc) are dishing out is pushing me more and more towards conservatism.
2023-01-22
9. Serial was my first podcast - hooked for life! - Serial was the first podcast I ever listened to, and I used to wait on baited breath for the next episode of season . I have listened to thousands of episodes of other podcasts since then. This is still one of my top favorites. The quality and the subjects they choose - the way they let people who lived it tell it. It’s excellent. Love your work, guys! I actually found Ira and This American Life from you… instead of the other way around - lol

1. March rd, Finally! - Back on track March rd: political commedian, well-educated senator, etc. Now get the other students (professors) who studied also under those who trained Sen. Sanders. Second, add back a third for the panel & then they're running pre-Covid! & whoever this nd panelist spoke like an investigative journalist.

2. Take a Bow… - …out. It’s too late to stop while you’re ahead, but not too late to bow out gracefully. I’m going to guess you aren’t doing your homework, or you need to nap in the afternoon, or the dope has finally taken its toll. Sloppy, Bill, and it gives me no pleasure to say it. Good bye. It’s been really great. Thanks for (almost) everything.

3. Not really comedy but unique political perspectives - I’m not sure if it’s a generational thing, but this doesn’t really seem like comedy. I guess he tries to do jokes but I have a hard time believing people really think it’s funny? Still, the audience laughs way too hard, which kinda makes you think “doth protest too much”. Regardless, Bill has a good “working man” perspective, despite frequently boasting about being rich. He’s also a bit too hung up on topics like masculinity and fat shaming, but it’s good to hear a liberal view that pushes back on the liberals. I keep listening but it’s not a podcast I’ll miss when it’s gone. Bill is kind of insufferable at times but has good points, so worth a listen from time to time.

4. Great show, but lame interviews - The New Rules segment is great, and his end of show rants usually are too (the one about Amazon was superbly on the mark). But the interviews at the beginning of the show seem to have become lame book tour stops. The recent interview of Bill Barr was particularly pathetic: No tough questions; no challenges to Barr’s lies. Just a chance for Barr to sell his book. I expect more from this show.

5. Old Fuddy Duddy! - I used to be a fan. Not so much anymore. For the record, Bill: Progressives want healthcare for everyone, the Right Wing GOP and the dark money companies that support them want AUTOCRACY. NO equivalency here. Got it? Good! Ya might want to start supporting democracy NOT the Cult of personalities in their Coup Cult of Conspiracy theories and lies! Bye, Bill! Retire.

6. Interesting show - Bill is clearly a smart guy. He seems to be a much less extreme liberal than what the majority of the left is in america today, which is refreshing. As a conservative, it’s helpful to hear differing viewpoints in way that isn’t so hateful. I would give more stars if he could be a bit more objective in his approach to things.
2023-01-10
7. Bill seems annoyed to defend LBGTQ - Still like the show but don’t like the hate toward the LBGTQ . Jokes are totally welcome about anyone, and I have been watching your show for some time, but your jokes about the LBGTQ seemingly are becoming more intended to hurt. It is like Bill wants to say he supports them but in reality he seems annoyed to even have to talk about them.
2022-11-07
8. Best Political (Comedy) Show - People need to stop complaining about late uploads and the quality of this podcast. If you want the show as it was intended to be played, pay for HBO. Also, don’t leave bad reviews because you don’t like Bill’s political views. I think you’re missing the point of the show if you think Bill cares about your one star review and partisan politics. If you don’t like it, don’t listen to it.
2022-11-06
9. The episode upload schedule is terrible - I love this show. Bill often has an equal amount of guests with countering viewpoints which can lead to productive communication between ideological foes. I prefer Bill Maher over any other political talk show because of the ability of the guests to get scrappy but it’s always ends with respect. Great work to everyone involved, besides the podcast technician as of late. I understand this podcast is a free way to listen to the show for many and that’s a great move by the producers. However, these episodes have been uploaded days late or not even uploaded at all. The past two episodes are absent from the week of this review. I’m not able to use my TV HBO subscription with my work schedule, so I’m thankful to be able to listen to the episodes as they are relevant to the upload date. Keep up the good work, just fix the upload problem. Or don’t, It’s not my place to complain over a free product, but I’m a jerk so I did anyway.

WAR ROOM with Stephen K. Bannon.
Release date: 2023-03-24 Genre:News > Politics
Comments
1. Best show in the USA! - I don't know where we'd be in this fight against corruption and communist takeover of it weren't for Steve Bannon and his highly intellectual guests! This is the best show in USA! You will leave more intelligent after every single show. stars aren't near enough. I give WarRoom Pandemic and Battleground stars.
2023-03-23
2. My Favorite Podcast - Episode Great show again!
The reason they hate Trump so much is that he know the inner workings of their schemes and is about the only one who could stop them. Stop the Con Games of the left, from the Vaccines to the ever changing Climate Change Fear Narrative; it’s all aBig Con!
2023-03-22
3. Want to save America? Listen - War Room is not for those who want to sit on the couch and yell at the tv. War Room is for the Patriots who want to FIX what’s wrong with America. You must listen & take notes. And you must get up off your butt and work. The knowledge is great; and it’s all free. You won’t find a better place to find real news, sometimes months & weeks in advance. It’s my go to information spot.
2023-03-21
4. Not for the Faint of Heart - An alternative to “State Media”. If you satisfied with the status quo, move on. This presentation challenges that narrative. It’s like a firehouse of ice cold water every morning. You’ll be uncomfortable and distressed at times, but motivated to stop “farming out your civic responsibility”. Our current government reflects our efforts.
2023-03-19
5. Thank you Warroom! - I began watching/listening to Warroom just after the big steal… YES, the STOLEN Presidential election on , November . I,
Like most who aren’t stupid, realize that we are under siege by our own government, being fed lies daily by them as well as the fake news media. The only “BIG LIE” is the FACT that Biden is illegitimately installed. Our founders are screaming at us all from the Heavens in utter disbelief. Thank God for Steve Bannon and the Warroom posse. They (along with a couple other conservative podcasts) have been my only links to sanity throughout this dystopian nightmare that we have all been put through. We have been in the twilight zone for well over years now.

6. Tess - I don’t know what we would’ve done if Warroom had not been waiting in the wings when the election was stolen and Fox went ‘full Stepford Wives’ //. I had solely followed Fox for years. But I could see about . years before the steal, they were ‘done’. I started watching Warroom sometime in early . Steve’s guests have become trusted resources for me, with the exception of a few that have proven to have dubious ambitions. But, hey, being on Warroom will sift through those thugs and Warroom’s savvy posse will hold them to account. God bless you, Steve Bannon and Warroom. You are more than a lifeline than you may ever know.

7. Keeping us in the room - A slew of information about today tied with a history lesson. Theres always a great variety of topics, different analysis from common sense people, most have been silenced yet have been proven right over and over again. Giving a voice to the voiceless! Always keeping the regular person in the room. Always supporting MAGA and always encouraging We the People to stay in the room! Action! Action! Action!
2023-03-10
8. WarRoom - The show that educates & engages the audience! - As a person who’s been following and analyzing politics for over years, there has never been a show like “war room” with Steve Bannon.
This show separates the signal from the noise, while providing its audience with the nomenclature, statics, dynamics and critical path. By doing so the audience receives the tools they need to become ACTIVE & ENGAGED in the political process! Forget everything you’ve watched or listened to thus far… make the switch to War Room - to put yourself ahead of the curve immediately. I’ve recommended this show to hundreds of folks - and every time I do - they are amazed at the difference! It’s time to get yourself properly informed, and become a member of the “War Room Posse”. Hope to see you soon!

9. Daily Dose of Bannon - I was a devoted Rush Limbaugh listener and I didn't know what I would do without him in the midst of our country falling to pieces. Then, I discovered Steve Bannon's War Room. It's the best news source out there and I dare say better than Rush. Perhaps it's the times, but Steve doesn't waste a moment on frivolous topics. He covers everything from politics, finances, geopolitics, technology, health, transhumanism, to religion. His intrepid team of contributors are simply brilliant. They bring a message of hope through human agency. It's the best spent hours of my day!

Candace Owens holds nothing back in her brand new show as she takes on the political and cultural issues of the day. Featuring deep dives, investigations and exposés on today’s burning topics. Listen to CANDACE OWENS Monday through Friday at 3 PM ET / 2 PM CT.
Release date: 2023-03-23 Genre:News > Politics
Comments
1. Liked Candace, but leaving for the mean girl antics - I used to really like Candace. I liked her different takes, I liked that she didn’t give up on stories. She talked about the hard issues. I looked up to her that she’s a mom and grows her own food, and cooks, and is conservative. But lately, idk if it’s because I’ve recently healed from some bitterness, she has seemed really bitter. She’s been doing the mean girl thing too much, and the mocking voices are like nails on a chalkboard. Like when she does the baby voice, whiny voice, LA girl voice, or just out right mocking people or doing a voice, I can’t stand it. I am embarrassed for her. I’m embarrassed if my husband or somebody walks in on me listening to this podcast when she is doing that because their first reaction is “what the heck is that?! Shut it off! She sounds like a banshee.” So Candace I hope you take this criticism as constructive because I do like your takes, but I don’t like this mocking attitude or the imitating voices you’ve been doing.

2. Kept Me Alive - I would not have survived university without Candace and (to a smaller degree) the rest of the Daily Wire commentators. She kept me sane and even if I do not always agree with her (which is not very often but does happen ) she makes very good points, backs up what she is saying and always makes it very clear that you do not have to agree with her when she describes some of the choices she has made in her life for herself and her family. Thanks to her, I survived woke indoctrination attempts. God bless her!!!

3. Russia and US. - I don’t think you have ever seen a Russian bear fly over your home. Nor do understand the concept of said warfare. I was on at least carriers where that bomber flew low and slow over us. The constant fear of their subs. Then the most crazy thing was during the South Korean Armistice celebration was literally a carrier killer from Russia parked at the same pier as my carrier. So I don’t think you understand the military nor the high seas. The world is mostly water so…I enjoy your comments for the most part but the military thing is by far the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard from a civilian’s face hole. Still gonna listen but you def need a lil more experience bout military things. We do need to stop giving our assets n money away but please read and understand a bit more military stuff…

4. Great stuff ! Love me some Candace - Hey i wish i could have a chat with Candace!. Welcome to being . The reflection on the zeitgeist starts. Wow - listening now. .. did she just subtly suggest that some Americans are dealing with Stockholm syndrome? “Race to the bottom”? So many interesting ideas about things that some of us can’t say or get labeled. Regardless of color or race (im from the ‘’s, we weren’t concerned with those things. We had moved past all that primeval thinking) she’s got a lot of wisdom for a youngster. Candace - if you see this, reach out. Drop a line sometime I’d love to converse!

5. Excellent Podcast - Candace,
I admit,at first,I was listening to you and thought I could continue or just unsubscribe you.As I listened to more each day,I was convinced you are a person who has morals of yourself and don’t waiver.I like that about you and now your podcast is my absolute favorite.Keep up the good work and just shoot towards your values.It won’t be easy and you are going to hit some potholes but if you really put thought in your moves before you pursued them,you are good and sometimes if things don’t go your way,well don’t think you did wrong and are going to change.You are a good person and so is Matt Walsh.

6. Facts - Love your podcast Candace. Please get your facts straight before speaking. A lot of the things you said about Murdaugh were factually untrue, and I don’t want that to give fodder for mean media. I just want the best for you. My parents saw you speak in Montgomery, AL and we are all big fans.
2023-03-04
7. I used to be a fan of her show. Now… not so much. - I don’t know what has happened to Candace. When I would listen to her, I used to think she was articulate and she would keep her composure while expressing her opinion. She once had a classy demeanor but, now she is the complete opposite. She has become utterly obnoxious, arrogant, hypocritical, bigoted and just a total bully. To me, her voice has become similar to the sound of nails on a chalk board. She’s that naggy and complaining Karen. It is very unfortunate that I have lost interest in her podcast. She was really going places at first but, now it’s just a never ending cycle of negativity that she creates.
2023-03-02
8. Worth the listen no matter your political beliefs. - I started listening to Candace Owens recently, coincidentally around the same time I listened to Andrew Tate. It started as just wanting to listen to something controversial that I wouldn’t necessarily agree with. Then I realized I actually see a lot of great points. For me it’s worth listening because I am able to agree with the common sense points that are so well articulated that seem to be lost on society now with woke culture while still being able to stay true to my beliefs. I like my beliefs to be challenged, if I can’t rebut it then I could possibly be wrong and that’s what this podcast has done for me.

9. Pit Bulls - A Golden Retriever puppy often will show it’s “built in breeding” by retrieving an object without any training at all. Goldenseal have been breed for this task for generations.
Can a good trainer teach a golden NOT to retrieve? Quite possibly Yes. would that trainer be shocked to find that one day that retriever actually ignored his training and retrieved without prompting?
No surprise at all.
Pitts have been breed to attack and kill competitively for generations.
It should come as no surprise when they do what they were breed to do.
Years ago in Florida they tried to enforce mandatory liability insurance on the owners. They should be eliminated as domestic animals.

1. Happy News! - This is an excellent news source already, now I love the weekly Happy News podcast! Please include more good news stories not only sounds etc too like the new material developed to help hearts heal after a heart attack and brains heal after strokes and TBI or the new device that decreases shortness of breath and increases quality of life for people with COPD, etc - Thank you so much!

2. Love Global News Podcast - I love the Global News Podcast and listen to it every day. It’s a great place to get an overview of the World’s news. I’ve been so fatigued with commentary “reporting” rather than simply providing the facts. (I can analyze the facts myself, thanks.) Global News Podcast is perfect in this sense - the facts, info from the location, interviews with locals at the scene. And minimal commentary - perfect! My one concern is that since Ash Wednesday, the daily episodes aren’t loading. The first one is typically available when I wake at :a ET in the US, but that’s not happening. Friday is almost over and there are no episodes for today. ??? Please fix this soon!
2023-02-24
3. Too repetitive - I’m not going to get into bias bc I think all news sources are biased and it’s my individual responsibility to seek different views. HOWEVER, this podcast is extremely repetitive in terms of their main story topics. You know, if someone heard that there’s a global event going on, and they’re interested to learn more, they WILL find out more OUTSIDE this podcast. The job of a short daily news report is to INTRODUCE listeners to different events, so that they can follow up on their own. Lately I’ve literally been skipping the first minutes, in order to get to the actually NEW stuff. How about setting some internal rules? For instance, no event can be mentioned in more than podcasts per week? Anything can only be the “main story” ONCE every week?

5. Biased and wrong reporting on Peru - The BBC presents the protesters in Peru as peaceful defenders of democracy. They are not. They are at best misguided and at worst terrorists. They beat and burn the police, loot markets, attack opponents, and set public buildings on fire, among other atrocities. The BBC presents the police as abusive and violent. They are not. They have to use force to stop the destructive violence of the new terrorists. The BBC chose to interview a self-described “journalist” (who doesn’t even speak Spanish properly) instead of giving time to one of the hundreds of well-reputed Peruvian experts who can provide a balanced and fair assessment. I can say this because I know the situation in Peru well. But I wonder how many biased and simply wrong reporting on other countries I have heard from the BBC without knowing it. I don’t know if it’s possible but can only ask the BBC to make a serious attempt at well-informed reporting. Its reputation is at risk, and so is its audience around the world.

6. Kept trying - But I am done. I am an American who wants to hear international news. This podcast provides biased and inaccurate information on. Regular basis (i.e “President” Ben Franklin?)
It is interesting that Americans have the reputation of being ignorant about the world, but listening to your podcast has opened my eyes to the fact that it’s all the same. You’re bias is clear.
And I am extremely tired of the blatant anti-Zionism.
Americans like to think of the British as being more sophisticated, but once you get past the accents it’s all the same old b.s.

7. Good but discrepancies - I have been listening to this podcast for a while since it is a nice quick resume of news however I have been noticing some discrepancies in your translations for a while and the one I heard today bothered me a bit. I was hearing your podcast on Chinese Crematoriums released today and halfway through the podcast there is an interview with a Colombian women who rents out her uterus and she starts by saying in Spanish she is , not as you stated. Something like this may seem small, but it is quite a difference in age gap and one would obviously be more shocked to hear about a young women doing this rather than a year old one. Unsure whether it was purposeful or not but you are providing false info to other listeners and it’s sad given the pontetial is this news podcast has. Please double check and proof check your work. I would a respect more a news podcast that has truthful statements.

8. British Broadcasting Communist - The BBC has turned into the most leftist news agency in its history All its stories about Britain, USA and now Israel are so slanted to the left It might has well be the old Soviet style news agency Only time it isn't slanted left is when it covers Red China and Russia But it's so pro-censorship it's hard tell difference between them and CCP/Putins news agency
2022-12-30
9. Russia denies - Of course Russia will automatically deny their missile or rocket entering Poland before investigating if it was an accident or pushing the envelope. Russia denies shooting down Malaysian aircraft, invading Ukraine, its a war, summary executions of Ukrainian civilians, using nuclear reactors as shields, cluster bombs, targeting city centers/civilians/ hospitals/schools/infrastructure. Russian military is unprofessional & incompetent - better killing Ukrainian civilians than fighting the Ukrainian military.
