Maybe post production can edit some of Jake’s speech fillers? It can take a while for him to get to the point.

No one cares about where exactly Tim Walz was in 1989 for Tiananmen Square. That was just a “ gotcha” question not worthy of a debate. My main takeaway is that JD wouldn’t commit to respecting the outcome of this election.

Great material, would be great commentary, but it is so hard to follow what Jake has to say with the “umm,” “aaah,” “and, ah, um.”

Thanks for a quick Capital Hill update each weekday. One of my first go to Podcast, each morning. Thanks you. 🙃

NATO in peril if Trump elected? Based on….just making stuff up. So hard to find news without WAGs just thrown in. Right if left.

Jake Sherman is so scattered that he makes this podcast unlistenable, it is so much better with Max Cohen!
Smutzey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/23/24
No disrespect and love this show. But new host today without any warning or acknowledgement? I miss Anna and Jake!
Studio Teacher Scott via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/24
About three months in on the podcast. Didn’t get a partisan vibe- maybe a shade left, but not off putting. What is off putting are the political ads and Jake’s level of distraction. The show is only 10 minutes long. Why can’t he speak directly into the mic for the duration? It’s like he’s being...Read full review »

Listen every day. Appreciate the information. Jake’s sound is inconsistent and distracting. Maybe find out what Anna is doing and adopt her practice. Thank you for your work.

Such a great podcast to follow if the gov will shutdown. Teaches the listener government process and why each party is pushing a certain strategy.

This podcast has so much potential, but production quality is awful. Commercials cut in unexpectedly, there is almost no structure to the show save the main 3 topics, etc.

Thanks for the inside scoops to start my day. Keep-up the great work!

Have loved this pod for catching up on Hill news, but the audio quality has been so inconsistent. Recently, it sounds echoey and as another reviewer said, like the recording is happening in a bathtub. I find myself skipping this each morning now. Please fix the audio quality!!

For the past three years, I have started my day with the Daily Punch and it’s iconic theme song. Now the theme song sounds like it was generated by an AI trained on Musack from the 1980s. And the hosts sound like they are recording in empty bathtubs? Still love the AM edition, and will...Read full review »

Let me guess, Jack is predicting a government shutdown. — evergreen statement
mj87Oz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/05/23
The way the audio comes in and out on every podcast is infuriating. It sounds as if both hosts are continually moving closer to and then further away from the microphone and consequently affecting the audio.
ToddBenzinger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/29/23
Podcasts have advertisements, I get that. But the way this podcast intersperses several ad breaks into a 9 minute show is infuriating. Makes it impossible to skip. When there are other similar shows like playbook that doesn’t pull this stuff, I’m not sure why you would click on punch bowl.

It’s everything you need to hear before you can finish your AM coffee
pdthorn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/16/23
I’m all for podcasters putting some ads in to support their work but I just can’t anymore with this pod. 5 ads totaling 3:38 on an 8:58 podcast?? Too much.
bror via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/15/23
I really appreciate this podcast and listen first thing every morning. In a landscape with cable news and YouTube channels filled with biased content this podcast genuinely explains what is going on in DC. My only complaint is Jake will go in to partisan mode from time to time, which if I...Read full review »

What would otherwise be a good podcast ends up feeling like listening to ads punctuated by content.
Jason Conrey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/04/23
Jake, you are such an annoying Little Drama Queen!
Christopher & Amy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/14/23
Do they actually talk to Democrats or just recycle Kevin McCarthy’s talking points?

3 commercial breaks in a 9 minute podcast

venerableRR via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/23
I have trouble understanding her. I wish she would annunciate a little bit better and slow down some. It’s a newscast for crying out loud. It’s not talk with friends over coffee. actually, they could all remember this. The material is good, but the presentation is not professional. Maybe they...Read full review »

Very informative podcast and I appreciate their work. Respectfully, I wish Jake would be more cognizant of speaking directly into the microphone. His volume seems to dip in and out fairly regularly, as if he is turning his face away from the microphone. I never notice this when Anna is speaking.
JNielsen64 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/11/23
This is my favorite morning update. I love that you are so well informed. You are so dialed in to what’s going on. I especially enjoy the way you talk to each other while you’re doing the show. You have great chemistry which adds to my enjoyment.

Nice work. Time for a language refresher. Lose the lazy lingo. Try an episode wthout saying: “Bottom line, end of the day, pretty much, well, look, I mean, you know, right(?).” Oy.

To mention Schumer's gamble of assigning Chris Murphy to “negotiate” with Republicans and to NOT mention that Chris Murphy is a radical anti-gun and pro-confiscation advocate is terribly misleading and leaves the audience with the wrong impression that the Dems are actually trying to get an...Read full review »

I love that this is a short and sharp summary of the daily scoop on what’s happening in Congress, politics.
Treksgirl33 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/06/22
I love the podcast when Anna is featured. Jake is just hard for me to listen to. His information is good but I wish he would just let Anna read it. He just has a punchable voice.
bigeagu232323 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/17/22
Got greedy and added way too many ads over the last few weeks
Lee622 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/19/22
I’ll personally give Jake Sherman $500 if he can complete a full sentence in at least one episode without saying ummm or ughh
jamesxsx via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/07/22
This helps me in my work! I would love it more if Jake didn’t constantly interrupt and talk over Anna. 🙃

Punch bowl News created this podcast to be the inside scoop that comes with your morning coffee, and it delivers. This is a podcast you are going to want to listen to every morning before you go to work. They have all the insider tea when it comes to Congress, detailed polling numbers, and...Read full review »

Punchbowl consistently has outstanding coverage of the Inflation Reduction Act and other recent legislation. It will be a must listen for the 2022 election
ClassicCaves via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/08/22
Good information but really - too many hesitations. And, Jake, take an allergy pill. Tighter and sharper please.
Bigbangfan21014 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/22/22
This is a great podcast I look forward to listening to it every morning. I’ve listened since day one. Washington headlines in a nutshell. BUT: Jake and Anna used to always do the podcast together. Over the last few months it’s usually been one or the other. It’s a much better podcast when the...Read full review »
BB is the new SM via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/30/22
I listen because I appreciate hearing the issues they track. However, I get frustrated because they waste time with dead air, “ummm,” and obvious statements. Give me news. Give me analysis when it’s not obvious. But limit it when it’s super obvious and bland. Also, Jake often says he will hand...Read full review »

All they are doing is pushing the FascoMarxis Anti-Science Pedophilic Democrat Woke Cult propaganda. We have Way too much of that already. Wouldn’t it be nice if there were Real Journalists chasing after the Truth, instead of fools pushing nonsense…
