Please take Mary Harris off the host mic.

CC is an amazingly talented writer, I will give her that, but she’s fully bought in on queer over gay, which has already started to undermine all of the strides that LGBs have made. This is definitely the least insightful most hackneyed season of Slow Burn- a previously excellent, standout series.

I want to follow the show, listen to episodes, and learn more about the topics but i won't because of the incessant AI ads. AI is bad.Read full review »

Mary, The way you handled todays interview with the anti-choice doctor was beautifully navigated! I wish more journalists had your ability to speak truth without antagonizing. Bravo 👏

Love the show. Could you please do an episode on the Amazon Flex drivers who are filing claims over worker classification?

The episode for the week of May 27th, which came out two days after Israel launched a missile attack that burned more than 30 displaced people living in tents alive in Rafah, features an interview with a young, sympathetic IDF reservist who casually drops lines like “They [Palestinians] started...Read full review »

My social studies teacher has us bring in a new current event to class every day, and this is useful, as well as very fun to listen to, too. Great for a teenaged Marxist with no awareness, like ever! It helps me to figure out what’s happening in this got mess of a country. It’s very nice to have...Read full review »

State sponsored Marxist propaganda. Enjoy being lied to!

I was deeply moved listening to the interview with Columbia classics professor Joe Howley. My daughter - apolitical and a student at Barnard- has been drawn into these debates reluctantly as a result of the courageous action of students and faculty. Thank you so much for lifting up Howleys...Read full review »

Incredible show today about the Columbia student protests
NameTakenNameTaken89 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/02/24
I’ve listened to this show for years and I often disagree but now it has become downright despicable. Protestors were chanting “We are hamas”, “Hamas make us proud, kill another soldier now” They are echoing the rhetoric of terrorist organizations. One Jewish Columbia University student was...Read full review »

I’m a very conservative voter and I’ve Been a listener for over 1 year so far. I like the moderate tone of this podcast even though I often disagree with its conclusions. This has been a go to for me to help understand the views of the Politcal Left. While I agree with the capitalist idea of...Read full review »

Is there any other topic than bashing Trump? The ominous music you play in the background when talking about him is great too😎
Phototoaster lover via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/26/24
Good topics, but the audio on this podcast is too often unacceptable. There is no excuse for poor and inconsistent audio quality on a PODCAST.

I’m torn on this because I love the in depth content but the ads are long, far too frequent and so darn repetitive. Five stars if this problem is fixed!
Jill-lyn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/15/24
It’s not just the number of ads but the placement is f*ing intolerable
ÜberСаша via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/13/24
This is a waste-if-space pod that's not even trying to be good... I subscribed to this on the strength of Slate's rep, and gave it a chance. That was a mistake. It seems to be aimed at people who just awoke from a coma and don't like thinking. The warmed-over, tired, "Is Biden...Read full review »

I always looked forward to listening to this show, but was completely turned off by the Fani Willis episode. The dismissive way the host and guest discussed her experiences with racism left a bad taste in my mouth. As a Black woman, it’s always disappointing to hear those that are not act like...Read full review »

I’d rate this show higher but ads seem to have equal time to the content of this podcast. And no, I’m not subscribing to Slate+.
Mile$666 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/25/24
I used to be a regular listener, but every single guest on the Israel/Hamas war is anti-Israel and in many cases is obviously so. Just typical/caricature leftie talk, where Jews dying doesn’t matter.

come on mary, you just called trump pres trump omg, you are freaking part of the problem, next you will be saying “sir” to him jfc!

The interview with Mari Cohen of Jewish Currents was most appreciated. It makes one ask why when interviewing Jonathan Greenblatt, the NPR news hour does not offer a disclaimer. He is not the fair and unbiased executive he purports to be!

I was glad that an episode was made to talk about the panda diplomacy and its history. However, I’m disappointed at how the mistreatment of pandas at Memphis was only mentioned lightly, and the interviewer was blaming the entire incident on the Chinese netizens. If you have done enough...Read full review »

Podcast shines the light on the people affected, traumatized. Not just about numbers. Zaki’s perspective much appreciated.

As a former subscriber the coverage of the Israel-Hamas conflict has left me annoyed at the blatantly pro Israel position. The latest interview with the Israeli documentarian was the final nail in the coffin for me. To highlight the plight of sharing hotel rooms when in Gaza there is genocide...Read full review »

Mary Harris is great. But Mary C. Curtis is not. Please find a better fill-in for when Mary Harris not available. Curtis is not cut out for podcasting. I am sure she is a nice lady but she sounds like she is reading from a script, which has the effect of sounding like reading a children's...Read full review »

Wow, EXCELLENT, THOROUGH coverage of the gist of the many issues going on currently here in WI. I’m very involved with the Dems and essentially PRO DEMOCRACY efforts and organizations and my goodness-it’s hard to stay as current as possibly because things are so in flux right now….so, as an...Read full review »

I read another comment stating the Mary’s voice is annoying. For me, it’s the complete opposite. I found Mary’s voice extremely pleasurable; it’s warm and elegant, with great musicality and rhythm. You have a beautiful voice Mary! Keep up the excellent work!

i don't know why i listen to this program. i like the topics, but i don't like how it's hosted. also, it's one thing to enunciate; it's another thing to try literally to spit the letters T, S, X, and D across the room for 25 minutes straight. the host's microphone must be...Read full review »

The Rabbi was extraordinary. This piece was disturbing. I actually looked up his synagogue, called and left a message about how touched I was by the episode, his articulation and kindness.

Just Heard on the News: “The IRS goes after the workers who are in poverty, lower class income and middle class, because it’s easier.” “But, they rarely go after the very wealthy.” “If you make $200,000 to a zillion annually, the paperwork is too much and too difficult thus they’re okay if...Read full review »

I love this show and listen every day. It’s a much better, less condescending alternative to “The Daily” from the NYT. Mary Harris is a joy to listen to and the show offers great analysis based in looking at the structural root causes of today’s problems.

Thoughtful, timely, well-produced. This is a really good podcast. Mary Harris is an excellent interviewer and presenter as well.
J. Oatmon via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/18/23
However good this is (and of what little content there is in the podcast it is good), there is ABSOLUTELY NO justification for the EXTREME number of advertisements!!! Completely unlistenable!!! There is a tipping point, a line as to how many ads I would put up with but you stepped over it BIG...Read full review »
