Great show with one major flaw
A trustworthy and credible news outlet at a time where disinformation and corporate influence in media is everywhere. The brief overview in the beginning is especially useful as it covers international news. The guests are also knowledgeable, articulate and often in the field. The only thing I don’t like about this show is how often guests get cut off while sharing relevant and important information. I realize time is limited but I’d rather have a longer show where guests are able to fully articulate their perspectives. If a longer show is not feasible, you could remove the longer interviews or special episodes about a single topic and redistribute the time. From a listener perspective, the constant interruptions and cut offs come off as rude and sometimes even inappropriate, especially when the guests are community members or loved ones affected by tragedy. It isn’t fair to expect everyone to speak as concisely as politicians and advocates who are used to delivering their talking points. Also, don’t ask emotional or personal questions unless you intend to hear the full answer and offer an empathetic response. The secondhand embarrassment is real.

Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez are truly award-winning journalists. It is very helpful to have the time to hear in-depth coverage of new that is normaly presented in sound bites. R U ListeningRead full review »
