I feel like finding Honestly and The Free Press has been a life raft, after trying so many different sources in search of professional journalism. Curiosity, digging deeper, great guests and excellent interviews—so happy to find this is still alive and available! This series has been so...Read full review »

Highly recommend this episode to all.

Well done, Bari & crew. Thank you for your thorough examination of this most difficult of conflicts. Honestly and The Free Press, in general, have renewed my faith that there can be balanced journalism in the world again.

I admired Bari’s general willingness to break from the heterodoxy that dominates corporate media. Since she started working as a stenographer for the military industrial complex and started sounding like every CNN talking head, her content seems pretty superfluous.

I love the mental stimulation she provides. Really does deep and through analysis. Only blind spot is seeing and empathizing with the Palestine’s plight. She’s dead on about October 7th despicable actions by Hamas and ignores Israel’s months of despicable actions.

Maybe I skipped over the election that in theory puts a leader in place. Elections have consequences . See Barak Obama

Andrew Sullivan interview what a waste of the airwaves. Leftist declare “ The Rule if Law” only when it is to their own benefit. Totally disregard that rule applied to this current administration. For balance interview Victor D. Hanson . Better yet have a debate between Sullivan and...Read full review »

Very disappointed in the one-sided reporting of left of center Israelis who protested the judicial reforms. A narrow narrative. Perhaps an entire episode should be devoted to the other half of Israeli citizens who see it quite differently. Judicial overreach by the Israeli Supreme Court to...Read full review »

This so-called "research” is nothing short of a tragedy. It's a verbal wrecking ball, smashing through the facade of professionalism with reckless abandon. Abigail's attempt at research is akin to a ship navigating stormy seas without a compass – lost, directionless, and ultimately...Read full review »

I want to have a podcast club (like book club) just to discuss this episode! Can't stop thinking about it!Read full review »
Tara F Murphy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/04/24
So this looks like Neocon war mongering/social engineering à la 2001 all over again.. and the likes of Weiss are dispatched to win the hearts and minds with lies and disinformation. What’s the difference between her talking points (& Sam Harris) and those of Rumsfeld & co? She’s having us...Read full review »

Starting off the show with It is more and more likely Trump will be president? My first listen to the podcast ever and when I heard that, I thought what a political lightweight and unfollowed the show.
Burdyblue via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/01/24
Abigail Shrier has not understood Bessel Van der Kolk and others work, go speak to Rachel yehuda, about epigenetics of holocaust survivors who have scientific evidence and proof of intergenerational trauma, it’s not nonsense. She makes some very important arguments such as his gentle parenting...Read full review »

Having discovered both the Free Press and the Honestely podcast over the past few month both by Bari Weiss I’m 100% on board with both. A fantastic read and great listen!
jby73 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/29/24
I find most of the Honestly show interesting but also not always accurate. The latest one on Why The Kids Aren’t Quite Alright did not define or discuss gentle parenting correctly. Obvious errors include the statement that gentle parenting supposes that children are just little adults. Not true....Read full review »

Loved the interview! As a mom whose goal is to raise resilient kids this was amazing!
indianbadger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/28/24
Wow
Holy cow! How can you *honestly* have a guest who blames ALL mental health challenges on mental health professionals. That is seriously some wild stuff, Bari. Lost a listener with this one.
Loro88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/28/24
Amazing! Every parent needs to listen to this. I will be recommending this episode to everyone I know. This is of utmost importance for all to hear!
TyRob27 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/27/24
I frequently disagree with the positions taken, but always respect them because the people have actually thought out their position. Also appreciate that Bari’s team will take on anything and allow both sides to be presented. I subscribed to the pay side as well, because I feel we need platforms...Read full review »
NDBrad94 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/25/24
Full of hyperbolic projection. Give me a break. Tucker does not speak for all republicans and yes it’s fair to criticize his content from Russia. But going full-on Dark Brandon and claiming all republicans are racist and homophobic is so tired. What an absurd, gratuitous monologue.
LeahPDX via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/24
Lazy journalism. Host did not take the time to understand where Tucker coming from and his point of view.
SamimSissel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/21/24
Excellent for the most part. I’ve known this publication to have a pro-Israel/Israeli government slant for a long time but on all other topics it’s been refreshingly well-balanced and diverse in opinions. I stand by that. I’ve stopped listening lately because they are now only reporting on the...Read full review »
stupid sloppy student via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/21/24
Excellent production value, keep up the good work. I can’t imagine why anyone would give this fewer than 5 stars. It’s refreshing to hear the news from someone who doesn’t talk to me like I’m an idiot.
ConcernedChameleon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/21/24
Barri’s sister is vapid and unlistenable, just like her. Don’t waist a minute.
JDHappy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/24
Look, I love Bari. She has a firm stance on being logical. She reports what’s important to her and does it well. Sometimes the bias comes out. It’s natural. I get it, but I listen for a sensible centrist approach.
tomnottom via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/24
I feel sorry for Peter Savodnik. He keeps divisiveness going instead of working towards unity. He no more understands what he calls the Right then he does progressivism. Surely Peter Savodnik can do better for The Free Press. Disappointing podcast.
+listener via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/24
Bari does not mind to push unsubstantiated claims as long as it supports a pro Israeli message regarding its response to Palestinian.
Fly Commander via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/19/24
I loved this weeks episode especially about the trend. Hearing Bari interact with her sister was fantastic and hearing a young person talk about the return of traditional values, even even though I’m not quite sure about the monogamy in, cheating in, too. But it was food for thought and that’s...Read full review »

I’ve been waiting a long time for you Bari. Someone who provides NEW perspectives and challenges the narratives on both sides. Keep trainiing us how to THINK and stay strong!!!!!!!! Update. I loved the Fryer interview. Finally an academic who understands the real world and isnt afraid to...Read full review »

I love the range of topics and independent voices. Hard questions are asked in a free and open pursuit of truth.

Talk about ivory tower. Sheesh
radiorentalFTW via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/24
This was a much more listenable podcast than the last Andrew Sullivan interview but with all due respect to the interviewer, he didn’t push back enough on the claims that Biden honors the constitution. He was part of an administration that spied on its opponent and arrested journalists. Biden...Read full review »
aussienyer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/24
Andrew Sullivan is a moron if he is concerned only for right wing authoritarianism and not able to balance the perspective of Trump’s words with his record compared to Biden, Obama, and other previous presidents. Foreign policy, economics, border policy, energy policy, knowing the difference...Read full review »
Kevinneedstheword via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/11/24
If you listen to this, be sure and listen to the whole thing. At one point, Sullivan gave his views on why so many people voted for Trump and will again, and why he’s afraid. It is crucial on this topic to understand an interviewee’s views on the Russia Collusion Hoax, the Mueller Report, the...Read full review »

I can not stop raving enough about this podcast, Bari Weiss and her fascinating interviews and insights. This is the press we need but don’t deserve!
Arash Elon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/24
Long live free thinkers!

Thank you for fair, credible deep dives into what should matter to Americans.

Love the content in this podcast and love all your work Bari. I’m a big fan🤩
TashDanieli via Apple Podcasts · Israel · 02/02/24
I’ve developed a great appreciation for Bari’s curiosity and the courageousness in her inquiry into the truth of any particular issue. Whether I agree with a perspective of hers or not, her curiosity about the ‘truth’ extends beyond a need to be ‘right’ or support one view or another. She’s a...Read full review »
Khidr777 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/24
This was an excellent podcast and a classic display where two views on one issue is correct. I really enjoyed and appreciated both Mr Rufo, as well as Mr Mounk’s opinions and views. Thank you Ms Weiss for creating a space in our siloed world for open, honest, and genuine debate and opinion....Read full review »
Jwj31789 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/31/24
More nuanced than the hard right, so at least there’s that. The show focuses on taking digs at liberals for not being perfect while pointing out that these topics are tricky without easy solutions. Conservatives get credit for having “provocative” ideas while meany liberals just ignore these...Read full review »

One of my favorite podcasts for intelligent and unbiased deep dives on important issues.
Jess Co17 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/24
Joe Nocera utters the phrase: “Trump recommended injecting bleach “ several times as a way to disregard other things that Trump did. In fact Trump NEVER said that. Search up the video of Trump. Mr. Nocera your misplaced dismissal actually dismisses you, as someone who propagates a myth… You are...Read full review »

Bari brings wide-ranging perspectives to her podcast. I don’t always agree with all her viewpoints, but she’s not afraid to challenge the prevailing narrative. Super thoughtful analysis!
Master Smudge via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/26/24
This is such a good podcast. Intelligent, important, creative and insightful. I can’t wait to listen to each new episode. Treat yourself and tune in.
Elmoinhp via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/26/24
I’m me of the two podcasts I try to never miss. Why because Bari actually seeks the truth.
naftdr via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/25/24
Bari is extremely intelligent, insightful, and respectful and she articulates her views in the most eloquent manner. She tackles difficult subjects with wisdom, humanity, and a strong moral compass. I wish she had a megaphone and could shake sense into so many people who have lost their way in...Read full review »
