To dismiss the popular vote across America as being driven by racism when a person of color has sat in one of the top two spots in our country is so off base. Deciding to disregard real issues and concerns of the economy, inflation, and immigration and labeling all trump voters as racist...Read full review »

i love Reveal and usually think their episodes are incredible. i’m giving 4 stars because i thought it was very strange (and didn’t seem up to the normal level of detailed analysis that i love about the show) that none of the post-election conversation mentioned any of the factors that i thought...Read full review »

So I USED to respect your content and coverage of events, topics, etc.; However, your recent, ONE-sided views and broadcasts have led me to loose trust in your shows ultimate objective, which I THOUGHT was to bring insight to topics that do not or would not have adequate coverage. This nonsense...Read full review »

Hard to listen to the recent takes on elections, which are such a departure from the usual thorough and in-depth reporting of this show. The narrow focus on identity politics and partisan talking points instead of the much larger economic and foreign policy issues under the Democrats since the...Read full review »

Topics are good if not great, however the lack there of for an overall knowledge of good governance and economics puts a damper on the outlook. BOE should be abolished look no further than this podcast for clarity as to why.

I was wishing for this topic to be discussed! Thank you Al and your team and co-reporter

Al is truly a dedicated and talented journalist. Any project of his that I have seen has taught me something in a compelling and heartfelt way. I really think everyone who listens is better for it!!

This has quickly become my favourite podcast. The investigative journalism is A+++ and the quality of the podcast itself is exceptional. I am so happy I accidentally stumbled across it. I could listen to host Al Letson speak all day long. I just finished Mississippi Goddam and was blown away by...Read full review »

This episode is beautifully presented, brilliantly reported, and absolutely devastating. The way to help American children is to give the tribal nations the resources they need to thrive! They deserve far more than the United States and it’s people could ever give them. I will contact the Biden...Read full review »

I’m hooked by the 40Acres and a Mule series and I’m super excited about listening to more. This is so well researched, written, and presented. Balanced reporting allows the listener to critically think about the subject and draw their own opinions. This is thought provoking and fascinating. ...Read full review »

I’ve learned so much from this show, so grateful to WNYC radio for introducing me to it.
.K.C.C. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/14/24
Thank you for a lot of historical information on this subject of which I knew very little. I remember the reparations made to the Japanese in my part of the country, under Reagan, and realized how little I knew of their roundup and internment in the late 1970s. How was the calculation made for...Read full review »

What a powerful show. Very sobering to listen to at times. I appreciate the two years of research and journalism that your team pulled together. We are discussing the 3 part series in our book club next week. I hope this discussion continues on and reparations moves forward for black slave...Read full review »

Great host, great subjects, superbly told.
KTtheone via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/22/24
The subjects are extremely sensitive and important, the reporting impeccable but does the music have to be so loud that it drowns the text and distracts from it? For those of us with baby boomers ears, it is intolerable. I love music, but, please!
Curious and Concerned via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/09/24
…on investigative journalism! They leave no stone unturned! Truth is only enhanced by how well it is told! Thank you REVEAL!!

They literally recycle the same episodes?

Very happy they’re representing Gaza.
Braelynnharris7 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/24
Not sure how I stumbled on to this podcast but it is what I was searching for. Interesting researched stories that make sense and easily understood. Keep up the great work!!
CJListens1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/25/24
Wow! This episode was excellent! My senior thesis for undergraduate studies was on Chicanas/Latinas with HIV. I can recall reviewing medical journal articles on Latinos and seeing many gross generalizations & also the absence of information on women, much less Latinas. Thank you for...Read full review »

There are lots of repeats & broadcasts of other shows’ repeats since the merge with Mother Jones was announced. I think soon it won’t be around. Pity-it had been amazing.

The Sunblocked Solar podcast is outstanding. Highly recommend!
RMARTIN0110 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/24
I could listen to Al tell a story every day. The reporting done by this team is outstanding, balanced and unapologetic. Five Stars!

Just started listening today and I can’t stop!
Rachel Killa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/04/24
Well done! No one cares about the credits. Idk why you spend like 2 minutes rehearsing everyone involved in the production.
CoCo Da Monkie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/02/24
Mississippi Goddam! Mesmerized by your thorough reporting on Reveal. Add to that the deep dive into another tragic loss of Billey Joe’s young life, bright future and how his family is robbed of redemption. My heart broke with their hearts @ the description of the death scene and how police...Read full review »

Interesting topics, just have to see thru the bias. Not a go-to podcast for that reason. I plan to unfollow.

Horrible show
HM805 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/17/23
Al Letson has been telling stories of the forgotten and untold for many years. He amplifies the voices of communities, which society wants you to forget. Much respect and much admiration for this man and the work he does. An absolute must listen and follow for all those interested in unique...Read full review »

Every episode of Reveal has moved me to tears. I’ve never regretted listening to a single episode. They make me glad to be alive and want to do more to help others as long as I am still here.
Chard Velasz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/25/23
I always enjoy these stories and the highlight such important issues. Great journalism that gets the full story and asks the listener to draw their own conclusions.
frenchfriedvegan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/20/23
Riveting, routinely devastating, and wholly necessary. “Reveal” sets the bar for investigative journalism.
no_saints_no_kings via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/18/23
Reveal is simply great investigative journalism. One of the best things about the program is the use of local journalists that cover the topics of discussion. It’s refreshing to hear the facts, unfettered by politics or ideology.
red-on via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/18/23
Such great journalism and truth telling.

Excellent show, great investigations and story telling. Helps my work and opens my mind. Thank you!

Eye opening-liked how proponents of the cueing strategy were confronted & directly questioned
newsjunqui via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/28/23
This is investigative journalism at its finest.
articulett via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/23/23
You continuously stretch my thinking by bringing facts to light. You fill the gaps with general reporting. Please continue with your efforts. I appreciate all you do.

Good stories but too many ads.
Telecloud via Apple Podcasts · Netherlands · 10/05/23
Listening to an episode, and they are playing recordings are are easy to understand, but yet the reporter/narrator repeats the exact same line over and over. If he doesn’t have anything to add, he shouldn’t be inturupting. Also, the ep is discussing FBI trying to convince BLM protestors to...Read full review »

An important and necessary podcast
jmaisy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/04/23

Thank you very much for the time and effort needed to report on this crucial story.

I’m a seventh generation Mississippian…this series was incredible!! It’s on point in its discussion of how many white Mississippians approach race- I’m white and have had too many 🤯 conversations with family members who refuse to acknowledge the influence the past has on the present. I hope that...Read full review »
