“Edited review: I just read in the New York Times that NPR is halting production of “Everyone and their mom”!!!! I’ll resubscribe to Wait! Wait! now!!!!! I raised my star rating too.
I am very disappointed for the layoffs. I’ll give extra this year.

Five stars for Wait!...”Read full review »

“She is witty. Her voice is WAY too high. She gets higher n pitch as she gets excited. Someone should moderate her. She is pleasant. Her pitch is too high”

“Someone forgot to tell Karen Chee that she was not hosting a toddler birthday party. Cringe. Fine as contributor but not to host. Please bring back Azlo Slade as guest host! He was great and is a very funny and clever guest.
More Azlo please!”

“If Peter Sagel were to ever retire, PLEASE consider Karen Chee as a replacement. Her hosting this weekend was so natural. And her flirting with Sam Waterston was hilarious.”

“The way she modulates her voice: I can’t begin to tell you how irritating she is. It’s like she’s guest hosting a podcast for kindergarteners! Please consider Paula Poundstone or Tom Papa the next time Peter is unavailable.”

“It lightens my heart when my grandsons drop by and say: “Is that “Wait, Wait”? We love that show. I’ve been a listener for eons. WWDTM is a Saturday ritual that consistently brings a lifeline of joy especially in darker times. (I’m talkin’ you COVID.)”

“Negin hosted the March 12 show and was very entertaining to listen to. She has been the best substitute for Peter while he is away. I liked the way she switched things up in the final round having the high score go first for a different twist. The show is always enjoyable and I look forward to it...”Read full review »

“Everyone who likes this show should listen to "community News with Paul and Sasha". Hilarious, serial, comedy podcast with Emmy award winning tv producers from so many shows and comedy headliners. Smart, funny, and freeeeee!”Read full review »

“Favorite podcast but they mix in sub-only recently. That, and the other title (Everyone and … though I listen to that as well) should be under another show name.”

“Love the show long time listener pre podcast!! One complaint…every so often there is a massive dump of old episode that show up in my library. I’m talking easily over 50 episodes from over the years. Unrequested. Thanks can’t wait wait till next show!! I bet you’ve heard that one before.”

“Love the show and everyone on it. It seems the show is so perfect that people are hating a decent sub show-ie everyone and their mom, because it just isn’t wait wait. Personally, I like extra content and diving deep into interesting stories from the main show that got a few jokes but then was...”Read full review »

“I have been a WWDTM fan since the beginning. I love the show. I subscribed in February because suddenly the shows beyond 2021 were gone and I thought I would gain access. Nope. If you are asking people to pay… we should have access to shows from the last 25 years. Also, please get Everyone out...”Read full review »

“NPR’s Wait Wait… is losing me as a loyal listener who has listened for years and years. Why? Most episodes are now secured behind a paywall when they were all free in the past. NPR will also be losing me as a donor for the same reason. And as a “follower” I can’t even delete the so-called...”Read full review »

“Wait wait plus is one thing but having to pay to even listen to old episodes is absurd. Having listened to Wait Wait for 18 years and contributed to NPR for longer this is just too much.
I obviously will not be listening to Wait wait unless you somehow remove this absurd subscription. Paying...”Read full review »

“I’ve been listening to Wait Wait for YEARS. But this move to ALL subscription is down right rude. They made it out to be for special episodes only (which was annoying bc they’d clog up the feed, but I put up with it). Now suddenly ALL the episodes including the regular ones are now...”Read full review »

All of a sudden it quits broadcasting, and I see it is now listed as subscription and I cannot listen to the remaining 27 minutes.

“WWDTM slowly forced a subscription on everyone. First it was special episodes and now you can’t even listen at all without paying. One of the great things about podcasts is they are free. At least this one used to be great. Unfollowed.”

“Ever since they went to the Wait Wait + content, those episodes just clog my feed. I can get rid of them. If/when I can rid them from my play order, I will change this to a 5 star rating. It has become so frustrating, that I am considering canceling my subscription.”
