Meh
I have had this on my list so I can keep up with general events, but it’s just not impressive. The reporting is surface level and uninteresting. I listen to left, right, and center podcasts, but weeding this one out because it’s mediocre.

NPR should not receive public assistance. It mirrors Pravda in its mission to support the administrative state. It isn’t objective and should have to make it on its own.

I’ve followed these hosts since the 2016 election. I’m more right leaning but NPR was always the center left news source that was balanced with a little bias. but over the last year it’s gotten completely out of hand. Combined with the Uri and Katherine Maher scandal, I don’t know how much...Read full review »

It is a very left wing show, it could use more balance.
baker1984! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/18/24
I happen to enjoy NPR Politics, even though the hosts are all clearly left of center and allow their views to influence their story choice and commentary. This is true of every NPR show I’ve listened to. Unfortunately, NPR’s response to Uri Berliner’s essay which points out the obvious has been...Read full review »

NPR will defend Israel and the atrocities it is carrying out till the end. No longer a fan and stopping my donations.

from far away the new cover art looks like a vacuum cleaner

The only look at their own narrative and are bought out by far left libs. Where did accountability in your job as a journalist go. Sad sad for America. Please quit your job and do something positive for our country.

Meh
NPR just says questionable things. without supporting information. I have this on my list so I can keep up with general events, but it’s just not impressive.

Calling AIPAC an organization with an innocuous history is journalistic malpractice… they’ve been strong-arming and threatening American politicians for decades. There’s nothing “normal” or “politics as usual” about a foreign government-aligned group systematically targeting any dissent in our...Read full review »

I really want to listen to this podcast because the topic interests me, but they hosts over use of the word “like” just diminishes and devalues their opinions.
Lefty Land via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/30/24
What is going on at NPR? Who are the new inexperienced reporters getting such exposure. They make mistakes and inaccurate comments. The tone seems off. What happened to the hard hitting reporters? The overuse of the words “like” “literal” and “whatever.” Look at the transcripts. Perhaps NPR...Read full review »

This is one of my favorite podcasts. The hosts are excellent, the content is well-chosen. However, recently, the liberal bias of the podcast team has been becoming more and more explicit, especially from certain hosts (like Mara). I actually agree with most of what they say, but it’s...Read full review »

I love listening to the NPR Morning Show either before or after the PDB; but since the (+) version has been added only one morning have I been able to listen… it just runs silent… or says has error when trying to play…. I don’t mind commercials (hello too busy or can skip right thru them) ***** 5...Read full review »

I enjoy your podcast very much, but was bothered by the NCAA comment at the end. Perhaps it would be wise to do a little more research before commenting gleefully on UK’s loss in the NCAA tournament. It’s been 5 years since UK has dominated any tournament because Calipari continues to build teams...Read full review »

The NPR Politics Podcast is one of two podcasts on Washington politics and the campaigns that I never miss. It offers excellent discussion from a center-left point of view. Though you can tell at times some hosts are barely able to contain their more leftward leanings, the discussions are...Read full review »
Hamster Calhoon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/17/24
Overall appreciate the quick hitting approach to dense political topics. However, the ads are just out of control. A 15 minute podcast that loses 1/3 of it’s time for ads is just too much. I know there’s the ad-free version, but, it’s also NPR. Honestly probably going to unsubscribe in the near...Read full review »
Nitrosaurus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/13/24
thank you for your thoughtful coverage (2/28/24) of the Michigan primary. It’s a complex issue for Democrats who have supported Biden in the past but are dismayed at his continuing support of Israel. Your team did a good job reporting on the various perspectives.
&&*! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/01/24
I really enjoy politics (or at least I used to) but it’s a disservice to her public to constantly cover politics as though the dirt and interpersonal wars are the important story. I would really love it if you would cover the actual bills and their substance, interview experts about the pros and...Read full review »

Too many ads for such a. Short podcast . Makes it hard to listen. When you put two of the same ad in a row I will boycott the company advertised for life.
Isaac J.S. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/18/24
Promotes the Forever Wars by studiously ignoring anything that might promote an anti war or non-interventionist perspective. It’s unconscionable.
OkMediocre via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/13/24
They will not stop talking about trump and when they have been talking about biden it has been very negative leaning

Todays review of the Colorado case was so helpful for me. Emotionally as much as I would like to see Colorado win, hearing the discussion here has helped me see both sides and understand better. Becoming a member of this podcast has been the best money I’ve spent. I know I’m going to get all...Read full review »
Spin mama! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/08/24
Very informative and the hosts do a good job of outlining the news and facts of the day. They do frequently fall into the trap of “both sides” far too often though. It’s a legacy media outlook they can’t seem to shake. Ex: In the most recent episode about Taylor Swift conspiracy theories...Read full review »
LoveisintheStars via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/24
I was dumbfounded that in your discussion of crazy conspiracy theories (Groundhog Day) you stubbornly refused to say "Republican". So I assume that your corporate overlords muzzled you before the show. Shameful. This is exactly why your show is News Light.Read full review »

I have been listening to NPR for years. Since I don’t drive to work anymore I love having the news at my fingertips, when I am walking around my neighborhood. I appreciate that you state the facts and are incredibly professional. Thank you for being my source for news of the day.
Toni Nolon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/30/24
I really think yall are discounting how much the discontent about Biden’s Gaza policy is going to affect him at the ballot box. I have seen and heard from countless individuals who say otherwise and I think that this is an issue that should be addressed in a more full manner. The policy should...Read full review »
Stick2 dancing via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/25/24
This program is so typical of NPR programs. They label Republicans as evil. They never referred to Democrats, rather they refer to the “average voter”. So it’s the evil Republicans vs the average voter. Everything Republicans do is unreasonable. Everything the average voter wants is of course,...Read full review »

Especially this cycle, if you’re not covering politics beyond the two indistinguishable establishment parties you’re not doing it right. Ignoring third party & independent candidates will not make them go away, just make listeners more determined to use other, more reliable independent...Read full review »

Listener 0017 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/07/24
This show continues to span political news with a liberal, democratic viewpoint. Yet another divisive tool to our One Nation Under God. I long for a legitimate political news podcast that keeps personal agenda out and just gives news so we can stay up to date without it being skewed left or right.
altmancpa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/06/24
I do enjoy it but I have to filter out the left-leaning bias for example on today’s episode when the hosts referred to “pregnant people”. Let’s not lose sight of biological fact please: only woman are pregnant.

KJJ1988 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/23
Really that was a bit much. And your show’s mission is a more informed American public, you say? The pervasive belief in American exceptionalism coupled with and probably supported by an almost complete lack of knowledge of the rest of the world you inhabit is what’s truly exceptional....Read full review »

I love the hosts. All are sensible and level-headed. I appreciate the analysis when I’m not sure what to make of things. Great job!
Jb293 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/08/23
Please do more face checking and less analysis on style. We need substance. There were several instances where one candidate tried to hang former statements against another. Media need to face check and help us separate truth from fiction. What did Nikki Haley “really” say about the internet...Read full review »

Mara should be on more, rather than sidelined or ignored. Often, I feel like there’s some odd competition between the hosts of this show and it’s awkward.

To the people that call NPR “bias”, that is because reality and the truth favors Democrats these days. If you are far enough to the right, even the middle is “left bias” from your perspective.
Perry-Ga via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/20/23
Ugh
Generally like the show, and I understand that no reporting is “neutral”, but Mara Liasson doesn’t even attempt to hide her biases. In the past she’s said a lot of untrue things about Bernie Sanders, and about third party candidates being spoilers that don’t reflect reality. In the latest...Read full review »

And if your feedback is disliking a journalist’s voice, keep in mind that it might be a micro aggression or your implicit bias getting in the way of what really matters in journalism.

Miss Roscos voice is grating on the ears, perhaps she would be better behind the audio presentation. 🙃
😉💙🙃 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/12/23
Very left leaning and the reporting reflects that by what topics they choose to….or not to report on. They also leave important details out so you’re not getting a complete picture. You’ll hear a very biased perspective on specific current political issues. Thats why I get most of my political...Read full review »

Bonesaw383 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/07/23
Always great podcast. I see NPR Politics is inactive on Threads. I’ll post here instead. Hi Mara, there won’t be any jail for trump in the Colorado case. It’s a civil case. They’re not seeking to prove he committed a crime on Jan 6th.
