So disappointed in todays show about the targeted attack on World Central Kitchen. Seldom heard such nonsense as the Ha-Aretz journalist saying: oh no, IDF didn’t kill them on purpose - why would they, they will just have to feed the Palestinians themselves now. OBVIOUSLY keeping Palestinian...Read full review »

Now that I’ve discovered the Brian Lehrer Show, I wouldn’t dream of missing an episode—he’s a sane, questioning, honest voice in a not always sane or questioning or honest world.

Thoughtful journalism and insightful discussion. Keep up the good work!

Excellent material & interviews.

Nikole Hannah-Jones! Oh my ears and whiskers, I’m full to the brim with wonder and respect. She gave me too much to think about — will have to listen several more times. Thank you so much for having her on. And everyone should buy the book and get the audio too!

Brian Lehrer uses his deliberate and articulate journalistic sensibility to propagate a clearly partisan agenda. Brian Lehrer is biased in the subjects he chooses and the way he prompts and prods his callers in a norm critical direction. Tip: if/when listening to Brian Lehrer, be sure to balance...Read full review »

Excellent show! Concise, well researched and humorous! Thanks!

The podcast is amazingly informative, contemporary to everything happening and most importantly unbiased. You will get the facts from everyday people opinions, and experts on particular subjects. Love the show.

I wish they allowed 4.5 Brian consistently has great guests and elicits compelling discussions. Audience participation frequently a plus. Smart informed and presenting multiple points of view

What a complete dishonest statement by the guest about capitalism. Saying that it is based on racism is complete lie. What about other countries around the world that has nothing to do with American racism. Capitalism has equalized a lot of people out of poverty around the world. Americans are so...Read full review »

I love the show but, my guy, your voice.
Mike R.B.E. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/25/20
Appreciate different perspectives presented, just wish it was longer!
MaMorr4 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/29/20
Monotone and super boring.
Austin P1989 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/20
I been listening for a few weeks and I didn’t not mine hearing all the opinion of impeachment but the episode on 1/28/2020 was just straight Democratic talking points with no common sense from the guest host. Sad

Finally had to turn this off. It bothers me that you’re treating this is a horse race who - so strategy and lynching. And there’s no talk about any kind of values are with their doing or why or whether it’s right. This is not a game you know.
luca487075 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/11/20
Never heard of a “cohost” mentioned, but today’s episode was run by just that. Counter to the usual thoughtful commentary based on facts and listener discussion, this pile was reading tea leaves, speculation, and counter-intuitive conclusions drawn all over the place. Way too many politics...Read full review »

Todays program with Eliana Johnson was a cool drink of water in an overheated landscape. Although I consider my self a progressive, I was also brought up Catholic. It soothed my soul to hear a conservative who can speak so intelligently, not glossing over inconvenient veniality. Invite her back,...Read full review »

I enjoyed the point on Monday’s show about facts not resonating with FNC viewers. Any 24hr cable news network has bias and are only profiteering. Public radio is the way to go. This is concise and NPR-worthy. Great job!

All lies Tell the actual truth Total junk
TruthSeekerTrump2020 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/12/19
Right off the bat the insane republican argument that democrats are trying to impeach trump Bc they don’t like his politics. Maybe the number of investigations are that high because this man is a con artist who has committed a number of offenses that are impeachable. Makes me sick and I had to...Read full review »

Wow
Really helpful in explaining whats going on in a simple and easy to understand
honeyoliv via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/27/19
Great info with responsible guests who aren’t here to blow smoke up anyone’s arse.
phaserbreakfast via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/26/19
Brian & his guests (journalists, law experts, & experts in politics, Ukraine/Russia, etc) do a brilliant job of keeping listeners up to date during these historical impeachment proceedings! Highly recommended!
Unfitguru via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/22/19
Very approachable, and brings out important points .
Mr. Papworth via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/22/19
From a listener in the UK this is essential late night listening if I haven’t caught the latest. Presented in a clear, informed, factual manner. And they keep their Library right up to date :)

Compelling and timely. Fair and articulate. Great work.
r.boomna via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/17/19
The very best thing about podcasts vs WNYC is that I don’t have to sit through phone calls w average New Yorkers who cannot get to a point. I really enjoy the parts of this podcast that are NOT the Brian Lehrer show. (no shade to BL)
jezwhatever via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/16/19
Love this podcast so far. Very informative!
My1account via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/11/19
This podcast is valuable- however giving airtime to seld-avowed nationalists is unconscionable by either this podcast or more shockingly Meet the Press. Unbelievable
FanofLireal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/06/19
Great reporting , great host, brilliant guests...and so very important!
CharlesVashon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/06/19
I love this podcast. Quick and to the point. Great guests and I feel informed after every show

A lot of info , smart, told in an entertaining way
Kcmyway via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/29/19
I was looking for a podcast that would tell me what is happening but first thing I hear is “trump is flailing” and other left leaning views rather then middle. Also the guy sounds like dr Phil but stupid.
Forcebubble via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/23/19
Just like how the the democrats have made the impeachment inquiry a one sided secretive affair so has this podcast. If you are moderate or an independent looking for balanced information this is not the podcast for you. Seems just like a rehash of the far left democratic side. Very similar to the...Read full review »

I’m loving the local perspective on this national “situation”. And Brian Lehrer (!).

Great catch up for if you missed the Brian Lehrer show in the morning & want to hear what they said about the impeachment inquiry
