“Distills without oversimplifying, excellent choice of diverse interviewees who provide key facts/context (often missing from western media coverage), while also giving the listener a sense of what the overall situation feels like for the human beings in the middle of it. Most international...”Read full review »

“The joke about Puerto Rico wasn’t racist, it was about the trash, liberal media jumped on it for political reasons and misrepresented it as racist, not everything is racist, you are therefore polarized news”

For all the rhetoric and guests bringing up democracy, they sure are doing their part to fear monger and fan flames while only presenting one side. Sadly, this is a program that does little to quell the fear that media can’t...”Read full review »

“What’s happening in Gaza right now is an ever worsening atrocity. The depth of the tragedy is compounded when one realizes that the Palestinians have been trapped in many versions and degrees of this nightmare for at least 75 years.
