“There are SO MANY daily podcasts that I’m literally drowning in them. This one used to be unique & only once a week, which made it easy to digest and efficient. Literally subscribed to get access to it when it went behind a paywall. Now it’s overwhelming my feed like every other podcast ☹️”

“Are used to love editors picks, and looked forward to listening to the three articles every Monday. Somehow you have completely ruined it by spinning it off from the main Economist podcast.
You have made each article into an endless list of statistics, more suitable to a company’s AGM than an...”Read full review »

“I used to make it a point to listen to at least all the Leaders in every Economist issue on their “Economist in Audio” podcast, but I don’t have time to do that any more. But between this podcast and the Economist’s Intelligence podcast, I feel like I’m getting brief but detailed glimpses into...”Read full review »

“Listening for example, to the article :”Will the Women of Iran Win”, one would be forgiven, if they thought it was written by a member of the NAIAC council (an IR lobby group active in the US since early 2000’s)
I was deeply disturbed by the invalidating slant and spin given to what is decidedly...”Read full review »

“I am a woman and the Economist’s reportage on abortion, read by a woman with breathless hysteria, was not only alarmingly biased but poorly researched and uninformed. Perhaps the reporters at the Economist should have listened to the All-In Podcast on the subject, or should have consulted the...”Read full review »

“I have taken The Economist for years. The articles were well written and, surprisingly supported by data and facts. The readers on the app are very good reading material that for some find challenging. The Economist has a center right orientation which may be interpreted in the US, especially...”Read full review »

“The content is what one would expect from Economist, but it’s the adverts from Philip Morris are not a little nauseating. Would have expected a bit more judgment from The Economist than to have a cigarette peddler trying to position itself as a “science-based” company.”

“I am surprised that The Economist can’t seem to get a good reader for its podcast. It’s very difficult kit to follow unless you’re sitting down and listening. The voice seems electronic? So many better ways to do this which is a shame as the information as always is compelling.”

“The takes and perspectives contained within sound more and more to me like the gasping, desperate death throes of the unrestricted economics this paper advocates for. Take, for example, the November 28, 2019 episode, which leads with a story about “new data” which supposedly somehow claims to...”Read full review »

“Very biased in their analysis specially on politics. They only present one side of the news and always their editors’ “view” is right view and others are either reckless or stupid. Unfollowing the subscription.”
