Customer Reviews
A must listen
Kara Swisher continues to raise the bar for journalism everywhere. She interviews without fear and truly gets to the heart of the issues with her powerful guests. I am heartened they still come on her show. It speaks to how fair and credible Sway is, as a news platform, in its deep dive into pressing issues of the day surrounding their companies.
Good questions, bad attitude
The podcast features great guests doing great stuff for the world. But the host doesn't seem to be interviewing them with respect. That irked me.
