It’s weird how the hosts seems to be balanced and measured until anything Israel / Palestine comes up, at which time all semblance of measured language goes out the window and the language shows a radical pro Hamas bias. I’m pretty sure this podcast is funded by Iran. Too weird for me. Moving on...Read full review »

So no comments on how a Yale educated lawyer was “misled by the media” to think Donald Trump was noxious, a fraud, America’s Hitler and now he’s just changed his mind. Please call out the hypocrisy and opportunism on both sides! Nothing about he blamed Joe Biden for the rally attack and then...Read full review »

A refreshing take worth listening to

Krystal, Emily and Ryan give thoughtful and composed insight on current affairs in the US. It does seem it’s always about Biden. Trump can gaslight, lie and mumble incoherently through a speech and it doesn’t get talked about. Biden though? Forget about it. Jest be equal

Changed from one star to five for breaking news coverage. Good job!

I love breaking points, especially Krystal BUT put way too many annoying tedious ad breaks in and now I can’t even listen to it. The ads are just for other boring podcasts I don’t care about and they repeat over and over again. Go back to when you had no ads, like rising!

I really appreciate what you do guys Krystal and Saagar,. Krystal totally is a great human being with tremendous dedication to the show, however, Sagaar is good too, but I feel he is a kind of biased for Israel in the recent event of hamas Israel war, this a personal opinion, maybe he is not,...Read full review »

Krystal and Saager are my go to for news breaks. They go the extra mile and deliver great analysis and excellent guests. Especially since the genocidal war against Palestinians began last October, I’ve been impressed by their consistent Palestinian-focused stories that are not covered by MSM and...Read full review »

Think of all the podcasts telling you the unbelievable. This podcast can be believed.
moving on-missu via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/07/24
The show just became better now that Krystal went on vacation and hasn’t been there.
Silentgrenade24 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/04/24
I've been a long time listener, and used to enjoy hearing two different perspectives on the issues. Lately, however, it seems we're only hearing one perspective for the most part. If I want to just hear conspiracy theories, I'll go talk to my drunk Uncle.Read full review »

I really appreciate the different perspectives this podcast offers. I feel as though I get a more complete understanding of political topics and news because of the varying opinions and takes this show offers. I love listening to this show after hearing about events in the news to see how their...Read full review »

Sager’s brain dead Ukraine takes make my skin crawl. He sounds exactly like a Russian bot.
muffin-man22 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/26/24
Show is great, although as of recent the opinions have been noticeably less split. I’m amazed with how many ads there are, however. It’s exhausting. Please find a new way to monetize.
CollisterW via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/26/24
There are too many reasons to count why this show has gone from great to downright obnoxious but Krystal is the number one reason of them all. I used to pay for this show but I can’t even listen to two minutes of it anymore. Terrible. Don’t waste your time.
YOGA999999 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/26/24
Lately I feel like the segments in the podcast are strung together oddly. Just me? Maybe it’s when it’s released in 2 days parts? Also the ads are nearly unbearable. I understand this is a necessary evil in a way- but there are some of the absolute worst ads are in the very long commercial...Read full review »

I haven’t listened to this show in a very long time, so I decided to give it another try… The latest episode covered Trump, and claimed he flipped his perspective on immigration. His stand was against illegal immigration not merit based legal immigration … if you’re going to broadcast “ news “...Read full review »

I really used to like listening to the podcast. This show is truly where I went to get my news because corporate media is biased left or right and this show was a good middle ground which is where I find myself on most issues. With that being said, I have definitely lessened my listening time to...Read full review »

It is ridiculous how many advertisers they play! They play at least 20 adds per episode.
boob0056 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/21/24
Also Krystal and Saagers little hissy fits at each other are really obnoxious. Never heard two more inflexible people regularly go at it, can’t even call it a debate since they mostly just rephrase their original points at each other in escalating tones of voice. Don’t think I’ve ever heard...Read full review »
DazShayd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/20/24
Love the podcast but I can hear someone typing, or doing something that sounds like typing, at random points throughout the show in the last few shows. Obviously I’m listening to the audio only version so maybe it’s normal, but I have to say something because it’s throwing me off.
annika🦤 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/19/24
I used to listen to every episode, it was one of my first introductions to “alternative media”. For a while now I had found Krystal to be very annoying. This used to be a place where I could at least get lukewarm takes from both sides on a variety of topics and be informed about what is going on...Read full review »
npolitz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/18/24
Krystal is incredibly misinformed in only one direction when it comes to Israel Hamas. She does not understand way dynamics. Sagar takes it just to be nice.
Dixklicker via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/18/24
Thank goodness there are still journalists willing to reveal what our politicians are doing. Corporate Media either don’t cover certain topics at all or they load their news with one view point disregarding what we can see with our own eyes or what the majority of the world is saying about us.
Sick of the propaganda via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/13/24
Krystal’s just going too far with the Israel /Gaza coverage. A genocide has not officially been determined and a genocide is usually not a result of being attacked, like Israel was on Oct 7th. There’s nearly a constant flow of sensationalized stories when they should really be doing their...Read full review »
Wellmandude via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/13/24
UPDATE: Done. Crystal denying rape and pretending she doesn’t understand the type of atrocities terrorists like Hamas are known for is the cherry on top. She’s disgusting. You can be pro palestine without being a rape apologist. This woman has a daughter, i believe??? 🤮 —— I started listening...Read full review »

I listen every day. This show is great.
Popesixtus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/11/24
Krystal just complains and Saagar takes it! tThe (Friday Show) counter points crew is enjoyable.
567scoobydo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/11/24
I used to really enjoy breaking points as I wanted to hear a variety of viewpoints. Now that Krystal won’t let anyone else voice their thoughts on the conflict and completely talks over Sager when he disagrees at all regarding it, it’s very challenging to listen to. I wish Sager would stand up...Read full review »

I used to be a huge fan of BP and recommend it to everyone but lately it feels like the Krystal show. I just listened to her repeatedly cut Saagar off while discussing the Gaza war on June 10th episode. This wasn’t isolated behavior from her. I can appreciate that she is very passionate about...Read full review »
Sophie's Mummie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/10/24
Krystal has become unlistenable. I don’t have a horse in the Israel/Palestine debate; I merely want news and information in an unbiased manner. This show does not offer anything of the sort. Saagar sometimes feebly tries to talk Krystal into acknowledging some semblance of nuance, but she...Read full review »

Watched/listened since the Hill. Was excited to find a voice like Krystal’s but watched until I just couldn’t stand her smugness and lack of self-reflection slowly evolve into truly immoral stances I felt disgusted by. At the end of the day she’s an upper middle class suburban mom who thinks she...Read full review »
Xoxo79 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/10/24
Really loved the show, even when I disagreed. I appreciated being challenged and informed, but the vitriol re Israel is too much. There is no balance at all and it’s disheartening to read Krystal’s comments on social media. I’m cancelling my sub as well. Maybe I’ll try again in six months. I...Read full review »

independent voices in journalism worth listening to.
EdeTM via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/24
The show has gone off the deep end and spends the majority of the podcast on the Israel/Palestine conflict. Bernie bros and terrorist sympathizers will revel in Krystal’s hot takes.
trevitzam via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/06/24
The show premise is the two hosts with different politics discussing issues of the day and giving different perspectives (one of the left and one of the right though they are both pretty moderate) with each other and often agreeing with each other. Well at least it start out that way, and it was...Read full review »

Saagar has left and right leanings. Crystal was generally fair but has become a LOUD southpaw. Post 10/7/23, this show has become more one-sided and intentionally blind. Emily is a logical soft-spoken conservative. The guy who whined about not being on the Bernie Sanders interview has a god...Read full review »

I’m very sad to unsubscribe, but the show has been unlistenable vitriol in regards to Israel. I can’t do it anymore. I hope to see more balanced content in the future. My prior review is below: This is my daily must-listen show! Krystal and Saagar always have interesting takes on the news, and...Read full review »

I used to love this show and was a paying subscriber but I can’t stomach the Israel/palestine bonanza that breaking points has become. It’s been uncritically all about this “genocide” since Oct 8. Not a fan of Israel here, but the moral clarity everyone seems to have on this issue is simply...Read full review »
jquincymazz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/29/24
I love Breaking Points would be 5 stars but Krystal seems to hate the United States. She seems to have lost her mind over the ICC stuff. I’m close to not listening anymore. I almost became a premium member and she ended that thought. What happened to seeing both sides and talking it out?
Balboa09 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/26/24
First podcast review ever and find out many others feel the same. Prior to 10/7, this was a well balanced, informative, and fun show. I only listen to Emily & Ryan now bc they sound like K&S used to. I support what they’re doing here and want more independent media out in the world but...Read full review »

Hey Krystal (and Saagar if she gives you permission to see this), long time listener, new un-subscriber here. Been enjoying the show for a while now and I really appreciate all you guys do! One small complaint though; I just wish I could get Krystal’s opinion on the Israel/Palestinian conflict...Read full review »

Listened to the show for a while now and appreciate the divergent views. I enjoy Sagar’s pace and cadence when giving his viewpoint, which I don’t always agree with but appreciate nonetheless. However, I find my mind wandering when Krystal is talking. I’m all for promoting my fellow women but...Read full review »
Fl OT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/24
This used to be one of my favorite show’s but Krystal has become too full of herself and talks over others consistently, I would prefer Emily and Sagar. Ryan is good too.
