Was excited WAD was covering the student protests against Israel’s genocide at Columbia and other schools, but was deeply disappointed that at no point during the segment did anyone bother to interrogate the faulty assumption that criticism of Israel is somehow tantamount to antisemitism. It’s...Read full review »

Trans are not women and they should not be invading women’s spaces and making a mockery of them! Stop supporting the mental illness at the expense of women! Support women being women and having spaces that celebrate women.

Love the Saturday series how did we get here but I am gonna pass on the daily edition. All the cohosts are fine (Prianka and Juanita are faves) but I feel like the outlook and point of view are very narrow and presented as fact vs opinion. Just rubs me the wrong way.

Will officially unfollow this show and be sure to not recommend it friends and family. Supporting trans women in sports is a spit in the face to feminists. There is NO DOUBT in my mind, this podcast advertises as feminist… you can’t support both. Disgusting

So much biased one sided “journalism.” You may as well be on the Hamas payroll.

Really enjoying the new Saturday program with Erin and Max. Content is educational and the delivery, enjoyable. Great chemistry between the co-hosts. Keep it up!

Just okay.

Josie talks way too fast sometimes. Difficult to follow. Slow down and slow down guests that talk rapidly, please.

I’ve been listening to What a Day since the first episode; the weekday version is great. This review is for How Did We Get Here. On each episode so far I’ve learned something new, especially the latest one on how clothing quality has gotten so bad, including non-fast fashion. Kudos to Max, Erin,...Read full review »

Thank you so much for dipping a slotted spoon into the chaotic cesspool of daily narrative to bring us a concise, engaging, humorous and digestible news bite.

It’s a good podcast, very informative. But the presenters mispronounce lots and lots of words. It’s unfortunate that they can’t pronounce basic simple words. And it seems that they don’t make attempts to learn how to correctly other words And they don’t know how to properly use the phrase...Read full review »

There is a complete lack of historical context to help listeners understand the full scope of the Mid-east conflict.
Alpalmah via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/21/24
I’ve been listening to what a day since 2019 and it quickly became a part of my routine. I loved that it gave news while still keeping it casual, I loved the guests they would bring on for deeper insight. I also loved how they talked about different pressing issues in our country. Recently, the...Read full review »

The shows with Juanita are often terrible though. She is frequently misinformed, and engages in way too much editorializing based on her misinformed opinion. For example in today’s (2/14) show, she makes the claim that NY-03’s election result shows that reproductive rights and preserving...Read full review »

The show has become antisemitic. Hard stop. I have been an avid WAD squad listener since this show launched in 2019 with Akilah and Gideon. I have been gravely disappointed though by the new hosts on the reporting since October 7th. I’ve been struggling with whether to unsubscribe and give up...Read full review »

Juanita is a little annoying though. Like we get it you have a Twitter, you don’t have to speak in memes.
mreebers via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/13/24
Max and Erin are the combo I never knew I needed. I genuinely didn’t think this show could get better and now we are here.

I really loved listening to What a Day every morning, but it seems Crooked’s bias towards Biden has crept even into this podcast. We get that you worked for Obama, please cover the election and all candidates fairly.
MarthaJune222 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/06/24
I love WAD and I’m so excited that you all added a Saturday show! And I love that you’ve added Erin and Max. Looking forward to what they bring to the show.

Yeah makes hosts sound unprofessional. How about yes. Dr. GC
scared senior via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/27/24
I used to love this show so much and I think the hosts are trying- but it’s just not coming from a place where there’s real honest truth and heart. It’s sound bites, buzz words, kinda pandering towards institutions that go against our own interests as marginalized people. Maybe it’s the...Read full review »
Reperations 2020 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/23/24
I’ve listened to this show for years but it’s gone seriously downhill. The new hosts have referred to first responders (firefighters and EMS) as problematic, referred to folks volunteering on the front lines in Ukraine as mercenaries, and frequently use exclusionary language. I started listening...Read full review »

As one of the most liberal cities in the south, I think the hate should be misdirected. I am proud to live here and proud of the progress we’ve made.
presidentneal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/24
Enjoying the new hosts and always the quick update, humor and perspective.
PonchieLA via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/17/24
Great stuff guys - informative, funny and feeds all my prejudices as a pinko-liberal Brit with a taste for the arcania of US politics. Enjoyed the episode on the Iowa caucus while pouring another half bottle of Pinot Grigio down the sink.
Chief Weasel via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/14/24
Who are these reviewers calling this show’s hosts Zionists?! I’m an anti-Zionist Jew and am very happy with the WAD hosts’ reporting and narration. WAD is my favorite way to get my daily news and I get super sad whenever they take well-deserved days off!
icantstandusernames via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/24
I was relieved to finally see a new episode. Imagine my surprise as I was listening and it went from 1/3 to 11/26 episode. What in the world happened.
Sheryl-58 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/03/24
Had to unsubscribe because I can’t make it through a single episode with the new hosts. The professionalism and fun banter of Akilah and Gideon is gone and replaced with surface level reporting, rambling, and exclusionary language. Luckily I can tune in to other Crooked pods.

I’ve only been listening for about a week now but i really appreciate the mix of factual information and progressive opinions and the clear way that both are expressed.
Alexa1018 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/25/23
This use to be a great podcast that did not lean hard in any direction and provided context. Sadly it has become a podcast where the hosts just launch into their own opinions and political panics hard to the far left. Good luck but I’m out.

My favorite way to skim the headlines. Love the hosts!
Grace from Columbia, MO via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/14/23
Some of the hosts need to scale back their personalities. It’s a completely unprofessional delivery of the news
Pipers Down via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/23
Love the rotation and different energy and area of expertise they each bring. It’s a little pop culture-y for a nearly 50 yo stick-in-the-mud, but it makes me feel a bit more in the know. Keep up the good work!

Can you all please retire the phrase “it’s giving…”? Most the hosts are great… Juanita is just annoying.
Adam Cheslock via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/06/23
I consider myself moderately liberal and vote Democrat- however this show is the EXTREME left wing. They use phrases like “white women energy” and are a bit anti semetic.
Moderatepolisci via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/23
Love the variety of news but the judgy vernacular and stupid inflections are super annoying. Was liking them but can’t listen to it anymore.
PTAJen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/23
The hosts seem very naive about world affairs. Had a hard time getting through my first listen.
iBebad via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/23
Super liberal. No balance. I’ll get my info elsewhere. Best of luck
gene0490 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/02/23
I really appreciate how your are reporting on Israel/Palestine. It is such a complicated and nuanced situation and your reporting is balanced and fair. You answer questions as they pop up in my head and offer counter points constantly. Thanks for the care with this sad and volatile situation.
Broadway Seeker via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/01/23
I used to love listening to this show. Definitely had great news coverage, but their coverage of the genocide in occupied Palestine is disappointing. They don’t even refer to it as a genocide. I thought they were better than that.
kynaughto via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/01/23
I have never actually left a podcast review before, but I feel strongly about this one. I acknowledge and seek out biased media because I group my ideals and values as leftist. The content since Oct. 7th has been horrifically biased to favor Israel and consistently fails to acknowledge the...Read full review »

Conclusory statements. Not fleshed out, party line rhetoric, and regrettably about what you might expect these days. Feelings over facts. Was looking for a neutral fact source. I wish these folks the best. The search continues.
robdfgl1212 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/30/23
Thankfully Crooked still has some other great podcasts. These hosts make it impossible to digest what little news is actually covered in each show. Bring back the Gideon/Priyanka duo - that I could listen to. Maybe it’s a generational thing.
Target180 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/29/23
Used to be a favorite for go-to news, but their coverage of the genocide in occupied Palestine has been difficult to listen through.

The show has been great but if you just started listening you would think Gaza was invaded out of the blue.
