I appreciate that as host, Warren will often provide definitions and relevant history for the layperson who may need that. Hoping that the program will continue to provide such well...Read full review »

While I do miss the more frequent shows on the airwaves, I also very much enjoy the newer platform as warren gets to take more researched ‘deep dive’ looks at current events. Warren is always well educated on the subject matter of debate, he is a very fair moderator and a relentless interviewer....Read full review »

I used to arrange my days to hear Warren dig into confusing issues and look at both sides of an issue. But now he seems to roll out his own confirmation bias and push for the utopian revolution of the left.

I miss Warren Olney on the airwaves. To The Point is still excellent and I enjoy when the podcast goes a bit longer than the radio hour did.

I’ve been listening to To The Point for years - on the radio for a few years, and now on podcasts. This is one of the best podcasts out there on news and current events. Warren Olney does a fantastic job of asking tough, probing questions to guests that represent all sides of an issue. The...Read full review »

Fantastic podcast, especially the episodes on climate change. The Joel Stein episode was the first one to disappoint. A truly lousy guest.

In a world where everything seems to be consolidating into ever more bite-sized “consumable” bits of content, I’m so thankful for the in-depth reporting and interviews done by Warren Olney and his team. By assembling the most respected and knowledgeable guests on any topic and pairing it with...Read full review »

Left leaning organization but, this program is a very fair look at current events. Great guests. Warren is the man! As a center right voter wish they would have more regular guests from NRO, Commentary, and WSJ but, KCRW does a great job at getting most view points on the program. Highly...Read full review »
Robert Henry Holtz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/13/19
Warren is unfailingly determined that both sides of issues are explored and explicated by his guests in whom he brings out the thinking under the issue. This is the one place you can count on learning about what’s behind the controversies of the day. A voice that we need to remind us of the...Read full review »

I say yes. I’d love to see the candidates get questioned the way they should. Weed out the ones who aren’t going to make it for the long haul.
A budding Joy Monger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/19/19
I’ve been a Warren Olney fan for decades and he is a master interviewer. Wish he was still on daily but grateful for weekly.
cecann via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/22/19
I have been listening to your shows for years and I find you to be the best journalist in the US, hands down. You ask the most thought provoking questions, talk about the most important subjects (I LOVE your Climate Change Podcasts), and bring on such interesting guests. I am so encouraged that...Read full review »

Olney gives climate change the coverage it deserves. Very thorough and thoughtful journalism.
MedStudent11431 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/11/19
Really most informative news podcast. Well researched, thoughtful and in depth. I can always rely on Mr. Olney to consider a topic in a serious way from multiple points of view.

I thought I had lost this program when it went off air. I’m glad to have it back, now in my pocket, so I can listen while walking the dog. Warren Olney always has the most interesting guests that nobody else has. I have learned so much from them over the years. Thank you for this great program!
Kempt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/25/18
Warren is the best! Intelligent questions... fact based answers. Nobody can host a news show like him. To the point is my go to podcast for all the latest news. Never disappoints.
MBprop79 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/18
To the Point was one of my favorite programs on my local public radio station, but I actually find it even more informative since it has moved to weekly podcast. Warren Olney is an excellent host and moderator, and he always has insightful, knowledgeable, and erudite guests to do a deep dive on a...Read full review »

This is a very intense podcast. It’s wonderful that the host allows his guests sufficient time to thoroughly answer questions and explain positions. A lot of information here.

15knicks via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/24/18
He has the best guests representing a range of political leanings, and he covers the current events as they happen. Olney then asks questions that are 'to the point' and then gets out of the way of the guest experts. The dialog is always civil even as the guests give their spirited and...Read full review »

Warren Olney is by far the best radio interviewer out there. Intelligent and well versed in the subjects, he facilitates the discussion with an almost invisible hand.

Warren 0lney reminds all listeners that education makes civilization possible. Thank you, Mr Olney.
sallyabood via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/31/18
I have missed Warren’s voice, since he left daily broadcasting on KCRW. Following him since the Uprising of ‘92, I have found him a source of unbiased, rigorous reporting, and graciousness,as a host and cat-herder. Delighted to continue to listen to his lively conversations on the airwaves!
beejieweejie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/22/18
Hello Warren...new to the podcast, but really appreciate the tone of the podcast (no yelling) and the variety of guests to reflect both sides on this latest Israeli-Palestinian snafu. Will be listening regularly. Hope you address this current affair type of subject matter, and perhaps also very...Read full review »

Warren Olney is superb! He is one of very few journalists who ask his guests “why.”He’s also famous for saying”What about that?” after playing a clip of a guest’s own words. We hope he podcasts for a long time to come!
Clint and Louise T via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/16/18
It is essential to have Warren Olney’s steady hand facilitating calm topical discussions that elsewhere are hyper-partisan hyperventilating. Warren is a journalist - he brings reporters and pundits together to talk, not shout.

Better than ever, Mr. Olney. The best guests and most insightful analysis.

I, like many more listeners on these reviews, wish all political discussion shows were like Warren’s. Tired of the out of control arguing and blatant propaganda that too many shows turn into.

Nothing else needed. Warren is the best.
Dream_Of_Stars via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/22/18
Olmey has traded in the calls and commentary which often seemed to end in nonsensical discussion. Now he does in-depth interviews with really interesting people. I’m much more interested in the show now.
