Not Right for Podcast
First things first - I love NPR!!! But podcasts are for telling stories - not providing 2 minute sound bites (even though I love Steve Inskeep's voice!). I love morning edition and turn it on occasionally in the morning. But podcasts are for telling stories and going deeper than just the surface. Don't listen to this podcast. If you want sound bite updates go to the NPR One app (love it!) and listen to the hourly updates. I'd happily change this rating if the podcast actually started doing a bit of in depth reporting - choose one topic to cover in the morning, not five. Anyways, hope this is constructive. Also, two advertisers for a 10 minute episode seems a bit much. Hope this constructive feedback is well received.Read full review »
