Blame your craven, greedy owner

So on Oct 28th, the Washington Post itself wasn’t even in the 7 headlines… Hmm. Throw “good journalism” in a well?? Yep.

Hannah Jewell is a good journalist, but I’m sorry - she makes the podcast is unlistenable now. I’d rather hear the robotic voice. Update months after posting my first review: SAME. This morning she was obviously sick again (or still sick), which is so hard to listen to. And her glibness at times...Read full review »

I wanted to love this show. And I really enjoy the format. There are no inserted opinions, just straight facts. I also love how short & concise it is. However, the actual content chosen leaves a lot to be desired. This show claims to offer the most important 7 news stories each...Read full review »

News delivered like international stations (BBC, the Guardian, etc). In other words, to me, it seems like news delivered as news—no opinions inserted to try to seem like a “neutral” party (as is typical is most journalism in the States).

The 7 news stories are read in a flat monotone manner. Doesn’t keep my attention. Has the feel of a high school class doing a daily assignment

I usually enjoy listening to this show every morning. But I have to say today’s show opened with a very biased story. It said that Trump was meeting with world leaders at the UN and the implication was that world leaders believed that he would be our next president. And then the story concluded...Read full review »

Listen if you (like me) want to know what the misinformation promoted by the Washington Post on a daily basis
Pieterderjaeger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/25/24
I listened for a year before wiring this review. It is non-stop bad news about Trump and republicans. It is non-stop good news about Harris and democrats. They don’t even try to hide it.

Listen to this podcast every afternoon after work became one of my favourite part of the day. I love the nice summary and I really appreciate the great work put into making this podcast. Definitively recommend it 😊
Sbdavidson via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/22/24
I appreciate having a summary of the news but the narrator read it in an affectless and very drab way. I would prefer a little more life in the summary maybe less reading and more natural language and communication
nunuhola via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/20/24
I listen to this as I get ready each morning. A good mix of serious and light-hearted updates. It’s just the right amount of news for me to not feel overwhelmed with the world but informed. (I usually dive deeper into a few of the stories later.)
jenlynne311 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/20/24
Just the right length to get me started each weekday. I listen to get a summary then go to The Post if I want more detail. Thanks to The Post for providing this morning wake up that nearly always has one small story that makes me smile in addition to more sobering moments.

Not worth the airwaves they’re spread across
B3asy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/16/24
I heard this advertised on Newt’s show with the claim of 7 minutes for the news of the day - so I tried it. In the very first story the reporter chose to factcheck Trump. Not neutral. The Washington Post is a left of center news source. You can do better at Daily Wire and other news sources.

More like commentary.

The 7 has become part of my routine for the work day. Information from a variety of industries allows me to feel “in the know” on topics in a style that quick and precise. Thanks Washington Post.
Miles of Summer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/26/24
The 7 is the first podcast I listen to every morning. Succinct, informative news coverage and good music in between segments. A good mix of serious and light-hearted news updates.
Legal Beagle 2026 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/26/24
Definitely love to hear this daily! But wish it was more unbiased. That’s the only negative.
vplus3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/25/24
There is a sound issue with the background music.
Cmb537 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/02/24
This podcast uses very simplistic writing, and a perky approach best suited for the under 40 set. Prefer something not written at an 8th grade level, and the cutest entertainment is annoying. Searching for a synopsis to inform not entertain; this is much more entertain.
Philadelphia Lucky via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/26/24
I expect news to be without sensationalized wording. If you were to listen to this passively, you would likely be influenced to feel a certain way about some stories. I hope people listen with critical thinking skills to discern fact from persuasion.
Regimom via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/24/24
Love the show!
ggosy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/12/24
I listen to the 7 first to know which stories subsequent podcasts forget to cover 😉

Thanks for the enlightening start to my days. Super useful.
MoleculeW via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/12/24
It is the only news I allow myself to hear. Short , to the point and funny . Keep myself informed without wasting time with repetitive news all day .

I loved Pierre now I love Hannah Pleasant voice and humor and brief thoughts about the top news.

This podcast packs in the most important nuggets of news in the smallest possible time and presents them in an attractive manner.
vybgior via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/24
I tried out “The 7” as my morning wake up podcast so I could get away from NPR and “The Daily”. Definitely not going back because I love the piece of which they move through the news as I start to wake up.
The Sarrrge via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/24
The Seven, like my first cup of coffee, wakes me up with its well vetted news and humor. Thank you for a terrific show, one of my favorites!!!! Your intelligence, diligence, and talent contribute to my understanding of our world.
Lilia W via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/24
The 7 is now my go to for daily news pods (outshining up first). I listen every morning and I love waking up to Hannah’s informative and warm voice. I am now a digital subscriber because of pods like this one and post reports. Keep it coming, folks.
Linzzzzzz5 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/13/24
The lack of show notes in each episode is a poor choice. Links to each story being covered if nothing else would be useful. Don’t just provide the link to the briefing. Put direct links to each of the 7 stories being covered. Why that seemingly obvious step is not being taken is quite...Read full review »

4-12-24Why was there an ad on my subscriber edition of the 7 this morning? 5/3/24 I’ve had two ads now. I’m a subscriber and curious about why this is happening.
KBlake88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/24
Stick to journalism and facts. April 18, 2024 episode, “Butte got to see a circus elephant for free”. How insensitive and ill informed.

I greatly appreciate the 7. I just wish it was 7 days a week!
The 7 is a 10 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/24
I have listened to the show since inception but I shall not be listening anymore due to the choice of new advertiser.

I’m a huge fan of this show and have been listening daily for a couple of years now. I am incredibly disappointed that they recently began featuring ads from the American Petroleum Institute that are peddling oil and natural gas as “cleaner” energy. This is dangerous misinformation and an...Read full review »

I miss Jeff! I give the podcast a 5 star with Jeff back in.
Mendy416 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/01/24
She speaks in a strange cadence. Very clipped. It doesn’t sound normal, Almost mechanical or AI. Also, I find that she mispronounces a lot of names and places. I would think that a broadcaster with double check pronunciations before going on air. I am disappointed in the Washington Post.
CA girl in Denver via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/27/24
Don’t get me wrong, I like Hannah Jewell. But I really miss Jeff Pierre. What happened??
Lisa K B via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/10/24
I can’t find anything about the host switch, but it looks like I’m not the only one wondering what happened. Jeff was perfect. I will still listen because the snapshot is a efficient way to keep myself posted on the world’s events.
hibookwor via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/05/24
I appreciate the curation of stories, but Hannah Jewell is not the right host for this podcast. Jeff Pierre was the reason this podcast was a must listen …
NotHappyRA via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/24
So much better than NPR. Jeff Pierre was wonderfully talented. Hannah Jewel’s delivery is not good, and her choice of stories is not as good as Jeff’s though so changed my rating.
