“Tangle has replaced my other news pods because it does an excellent job following through on its mission statement: presenting views from across the spectrum, independent thinking, and avoiding the hysterical nonsense that pervades most of our political media. Thanks Isaac and co.!
Adding here...”Read full review »

“Yes, I’m very left and I also love the Daily Show, but that’s comedy/tragedy. I appreciate the sincere effort to present the ways biased sources (left and right) report the news. It’s a good way to try to understand how other groups see things, at the least. Surprise your bigoted uncle at...”Read full review »

“Don’t be told what to think. Hear perspectives from both sides and from Isaac and form your own opinions (or remain ambivalent on tough topics!).
Hands down the best source to escape the echochamber, cannot endorse Tangle highly enough.”

“How many times can you say that about a politically oriented editorial team? Tangle stands out from the crowd because it is more interested in making a difference than being right. If you are one of the 67% of voters who “support political compromise” (Hidden Tribes) or the 72% of Americans who...”Read full review »

“Nice work! Heard the worry and just wanted to say I’m a fairly new listener, heard you on Ravi’s pod. Great job. Not that you care what a random listener’s opinion is but speak your logical conclusions. Watch for feedback but don’t let it rule you. Also producer (John?) might need one more coffee...”Read full review »

“They do a good job giving both sides but clearly he is left when giving his take. Hard to listen when you can’t debate. Update. This is a not non partisan. They do tell you what the right is saying but his take is always left. If you are on the left you will enjoy this podcast if not don’t waste...”Read full review »

“This is the top balanced news podcast available in terms of quality, relevance, and accessibility. Always the first news podcast I listen to before anything else. And the intro music is the bomb…you have to hear it to know what I mean. It actually makes me dance.”

“If you look at the title and description of the Nuseirat Massacre episode, you need not look further than Tangle to find another entity supportive of the Palestinian Genocide.”

“I love the Tangle podcast because, as a working mom, I don’t always have time to sit and read the newsletter. But I can listen to the pod while I work and get the news and viewpoints I need to put it all in context. Keep it up, y’all!”

“The original format of this show was not confusing !!! Issac, you’re great and I like hearing you report on the right and the left and your own take!! The other guy is fine, but the personal integrity of you as the host and leader of the pod works better. It’s more authentic !!! If you...”Read full review »

“I love Tangle generally, but the Undecideds episodes have been a bit of a disappointment. They’re interesting, but I would prefer more probing questions, more background analysis, and more comparisons among undecided voters, vs just letting them talk. Compare with The Run-Up.”

“Isaac does deeper-dive analyses on one major headline each day, presenting facts, known liberal and conservative spin, and his own opinion where he acknowledges his own biases. It has made me feel like I have the full context in about 10-20 minutes. Tangle is overall just rational. While I don’t...”Read full review »

“I’ve been a subscriber to the Tangle newsletter for a couple years, when I was looking for news sources that aren’t slanted, and that represent middle America, which is where most of us live. Can’t someone just explain the news? The best part of Tangle is when they explain “what the left is...”Read full review »

“Otherwise a 5 star podcast. I love Isaac’s willingness to consider all viewpoints. That said, Bill O’Reilly has earned a well deserved exile in the wilderness. Between the credible reports of serial sexual exploitation and his dated retrograde conservative viewpoints, he doesn’t merit time on...”Read full review »

I still need the news and Issac Saul reads through it all to bring it to me one issue at a...”Read full review »

“Interesting to hear both sides of the arguments on different topics but the author’s “my take” and overall opinion are definitely right - maybe center right but hard to believe it’s a fair assessment when his opinions and persona are more right and agrees with all the conservatives.”
