“I found The Briefing through an ad on podcast one and I think I’ve been listening to the podcast from episode 1. I have listened to The Briefing’s equivalents in Australia and a few out of other countries. I like The Briefing because it doesnt just replicate the stories and attitudes that are evident on the ABC or the other daily podcasts. The subjects are still very ‘safe’ though and I wish The Briefing could be a bit more bold. I’m a Gen Xer. I suspect the podcast is aimed at 90s kids who are former TripleJ listeners; I doubt I am the target audience. The hosts seem to be trying to be groovy-sounding. That is probably on point for their target audience, but I find it too chatty and light. The least satisfactory thing for me is the quality of the hosts’ voices; when I listen to talk radio, I’ve grown up with everyone having well-trained or coached voices. Very few podcasters seem to have broadcast-quality voices these days. Everyone, including those on The Briefing, have a croaky voice from time to time. EDIT ***I posted my original review in mid-October 2020*** I stand by most of what I said; good content, good story selection; I retract the critique of Jan and Annika’s voices. I regard their voices are unique and nuanced. Unfortunately, my dislike of Tom’s voice still stands; frequent skips into vocal fry”

“Love Tom Tilley. And cannot stand how the media traditionally delivers “news”.
Getting prepped for this to become my new daily staple.”

“I have enjoyed some episodes however struggling with the news part - federal government talking points. Today 8/9 we hear criticism from the EX CMO Brendan Murphy. Will keep trying but as a Melbourne based listener, I may need to tune out.”
