Informative for the obsessively unexposed
I find this a great summary of the important topics hitting the world today - by delving in a little deeper with brackground and some analysis... and TRYING to keep it unbiased (there are times when it certainly isn't and other times when restraint is keenly obvious - but I think it is well done overall)... it is more informative and less inflamatory than what is thrown on your face from most outlets. I DO NOT WATCH THE NEWS. I DO NOT LISTEN TO THE NEWS. I prefer a little ignnorance. My blood pressure is already too high for me to get super concerned with agendas that either have little consequence to my daily life or are just political shenanigans meant to rile the populace. I find that this show gives me a taste of what is being thrown about out there and why it is important to understand without bombarding me with all the negativity that is the anger-click-bait goal of the media. Thank you. I agree with another reviewer here that the music is not so great.Read full review »

A decent daily news podcast which does a thorough deep dive of one topic each afternoon. The only problem (common to a lot of Vox things) is the too-frequent attempt to be “hip for millenials”. I cringe a little bit each time they try. The regular parodies of popular songs interspersed with the...Read full review »
