Like Jason, not so much other hosts
I really appreciate Jason’s clear-cut style of reporting and the stories chosen to feature. That said, I would just as soon not listen when others host on his behalf. Those folks sound far more pompous and don’t lead the conversation in nearly as interesting directions (i.e., the most recent reporting on the massacre in Christchurch - the constant focus on why the gunman did it, which isn’t exactly shrouded in mystery). With Jason, I feel like I’m getting news that is genuinely insightful; with any other host so far, it’s more of the navel-gazing I’ve come to avoid in mainstream American reporting. Also, as others have said, the ads are far too loud and sound like a robot is reading them.
