Customer Reviews
Superb
Finally! You made the Espresso into audio. I love it! ❤️
Please adversity this Service more to your current subscribers. I found it by chance.
The long version for paying subscribers is amazing. But please advertise this more too. I found out about it by looking at the obscure link in this podcast‘s description.
Great work!
All old Episodes were deleted?
The world in brief deleted all episodes save the most recent one in Apple Podcasts. Which is really unfortunate for those who had saved specific episodes to help with research and writing. Me and my family have subscribed to the economist for over 30 years, but the recent changes motivated by moving more people towards the app is starting to alienate their own subscribers. Either invest more resources in a better interface or wonder why the subscribers are dropping out. Really sorry to say.
Same logo/icon as entrepreneur
Hi your podcast has basically the same red and white E logo as the entrepreneur podcast. Quite confusing, maybe add “Economist” underneath?
Otherwise great stuff
