“This is a great little podcast. Short, informative thoughts on the political events of the week. Great chemistry between Karri and Ken, and good interactions with call ins, who are by and large well spoken. Keep it up!”

“(Side note, not to be confused with “Ken Rudin’s Political Junkie.”). The rating reflects the podcast itself and not the content. The segments are still some of the most informative 15-minute round-ups of the political week. However, I am not clear what the point is of having a separate podcast...”Read full review »

“I am so confused as to why Kerri Miller would start her show talking about a button for several minutes but never describe it. Seems like a radio host, especially for MPR, should be able to use descriptive language to paint a picture for her listeners rather than talk about how funny it is and...”Read full review »

“Lots to like about this poddy, but what I particularly love about this program is how much we get to see how history repeats itself - Ken brings in fab commentators who can talk about what happened in the 60's and parallels with now.”Read full review »

“Although I don't like this short podcast as much as Ken's full hour Political Junkie podcast, Ken is just the best. His smarts and great personality makes him someone I'd love to hang out with for a while. Love you, Ken!”Read full review »

“I never missed Political Junkie back when Ken Rudin was on NPR. And I don’t know how I could make it through this crazy political season without his keen insight, corny jokes and terrific guests. This is my very favorite political podcast, I only wish it could come out twice a week, rather than...”Read full review »

“Ken's podcast is timely, amusing, informative, and politically balanced. He interviews real local experts--not a paid talking head among them. The This Week in Political History feature is a gem. I look forward to my Thursday commute home because that's when I listen to Ken. Anyone who...”Read full review »

“Have missed Ken Rudin and Political Junkie on TOTN. I am ecstatic it has returned. Would love to see a separate segment with Neal, as the chemistry between them was obvious. For those asking about Scuttlebutton, it is posted on his website.”
