“Not as into it now that it’s only published weekly. It was a much better show when it was on a daily basis wrapping up the news of the day for 10-15 min. Also very left biased but I’ve come to expect that from theskimm especially after the past few years...
Edit: don’t like this new set up...”Read full review »

“This show almost seems like an AI is writing a script and the host is just reading it. “AI take x issue, and overlay all the fashionable dogmatic leftist tropes in a script for a podcast”
The harm comes from that fact that uneducated / naive people listen, and they think all the fashionable...”Read full review »

And if I missed to read the skimm news, I felt like it will get covered here. I’m really disappointed you stopped it. I really...”Read full review »

“Skimm This has been one of my favorite podcasts and I am so sad it’s coming to an end. Thanks for the many years of keeping me informed with what’s going on in the world. I guess I’ll have to make time to read the newsletters now. Best of luck on your next endeavor.”

“I’ve really been enjoying the weekly skimm and pop culture podcasts but just as I was getting into the rhythm and finally found a news outlet I enjoy (although their view has sometimes been biased) both pop culture and the skimm both are taken down at some point. I honestly feel these are the two...”Read full review »

Now, it is a series of opinions about what could happen, might happen, or maybe due to a news event. As an adult, I want the news not a lesson. Lost a listener so...”Read full review »

“I like the recent move to add expert voices as interviewees who can explain events from a factual lens eg their interview with David Rennie on China’s role in the Russia-Ukraine war. That was a very useful/helpful digest. Unfortunately, most digests generally reflect one point of view. It would...”Read full review »

“If you’re looking for a quick skim on the week’s news, this is great for you. If you’re looking for a quick, *objective* skim on the week’s news, look elsewhere.
