    Concerning
    I’ve been a fan until listening to the discussion of the Vance-Walz debate. There was little mention of the many lies Vance told, such as his claim that Trump saved the ACA. Now I’m wondering how objective their other podcasts are.

    A lot of Whining
    When did this become the crybaby liberal pod. Elon so scary!
  • rickdoss
    Trump didn’t offer national guard troops??
    That’s a lie. Trump did offer 10k troops to secure the house. For this pod to claim otherwise is a lie. I can’t listen to a pod that condones lying.

    Interesting and efficient
    Big Take has quickly become my favorite podcast. It’s the perfect length to listen to on drives without the kids - and so well-done and interesting. I feel like I’m learning a lot in a short amount of time, and on topics that are related to - but a new angle on - current events.

    Fantastic, keeps me up to date in the financial world
    I listen everyday, this is one of the best podcasts, with each episode I deep dive into a new aspect of finance.

    Boarder story
    Why is it so hard for reporters to cover an issue without steering the conversation (a word this reporter used when describing what the person she was interviewing was doing)? According to the start of the story this is the number on concern of American voters yet non bias reporting can’t be found. It is distroying the credibility of American journalism. Where journalists used to be the people’s fact checkers now they are the mouth piece for political views (right and left). The search continues for real reporting.

    Big Take became the Tiny Take
    This used to be a fantastic podcast - one of my favorites. But they’ve completely changed it recently and it no longer does deep dives into topics… just brief skims of things you’d love to hear more about. This is now a shell of what it once was and unfortunately no longer worth a follow.

    What a downfall
    Just no. This had become one of the best, if not the best daily news shows with Wes and company, then they threw the entire staff under the bus to rebrand into some run of the mill paper thin podcast? Might as well have AI create the entire show, the narration and sound design are shells of what came before. No thank you. 1 star for the current product, but I'll pour out another star for the quality that came before.

    Always insightful
    There’s no better show for learning about a diverse set of global issues — much more wide-ranging than the Daily or the Journal. The last few weeks have turned me into a devoted listener.

    Big Fan!
    New listener to the podcast and have been really enjoying it! The topics covered are interesting and topical. Really enjoy the new host!
  • Powerpgblossom
    I miss Wes
    Please put Wes Kosova back
  • Honest-Feedbackk
    What happened to Wes??
    Also why is this podcast produced entirely by woman now…? Seems a bit sexist and think I’ll unfollow if that’s the theme this podcast is going

    Plymouth Gin commercial
    That commercial for Plymouth Gin makes me violently angry. I’ve got no idea why. It’s sounds force me away. It’s awful. Can’t listen to this ever again.
  • JD Genf
    Always insightful, information packed.
    It’s great to hear knowledgeable reporters talk about their areas of expertise. It takes the time to delve into nuances and tackle different angles. I always learn a ton.
  • iTalyPod
    Content is fine, but audio editing makes it difficult to listen to
    The content is fine, but every interview has tinkly music played behind it — and it’s quite distracting!
  • Chickenandwaffles09
    Interesting topics but very left wing.
    Could probably be a 5 star if they provided both sides of the sorry. Not in the cards I guess.
  • Wishitate
    Excellent so far
    In a very short amount of time, this has become a must-listen podcast. There isn’t the fear-mongering of other daily podcasts and the breadth and depth of topics is great so far. I really feel like I learn a lot from these and the material goes down easily (even when the topic is difficult to digest). It will be difficult for them to keep this up every day, but so far they’re hitting it out of the park.

    Interesting and Informative
    Wes Kosova is easy to listen to as he discusses timely issues. Looking forward to hearing more.
  • hoeperjoe
    Guidance counselor voice
    This guy's voice is so weak and sensitive sounding. Sounds like a guidance counselor on Beavis and Butthead. Had to turn it off.
  • Daremore
    Timely and Engaging
    This podcast is timely. The issues are relevant and ones that I care about. The format is easy, informative and conversational. It speaks to me. Thanks
