I fell into Americast because I’ve enjoyed Marianna Springs’ other podcasts, and I truth the BBC more than just about any news-source here in the US. I’ll be honest, I’m a conservative, but one with a grave distrust of certain newer influences in the Republican Party. Suffice to say, I withdrew from GOP in 2016. Let the reader understand. This is a nice, concise capping of events here in the US, by people who are largely not invested in this me side over the other. As a result, it’s very balanced and I feel like I’m being given information I can use to do my own research.

This is not journalism. This is a great big long Trump bashing, to the point where it is almost shameful. Whether you or I like Trump or not is not the point. What we want are facts, neutrally, clearly, and intelligently presented.

This podcast speaks so highly of Trump it’s disgusting. They don’t look at anything he does with scrutiny. People are protesting in the streets. We didn’t vote for Elon Musk.

Just more MAGA propaganda. Thanks Americacast, but we have plenty of our own compromised media outlets right here in the US. Very disappointed in the BBC for sending us this trash when we need unbiased journalism the most.

It’s helpful to get a glimpse of the US through the eyes of Britain. But much of the reporting is ethnocentric, shortsighted, and judgmental.

The presenters of this programme just can’t stop the bias. They go on and on about truth and credibility and yet absolutely fail to recognise the wholesale incompetence, corruption and abuse of power that was the Biden administration. They NEVER mention any of the lawfare, the venality, the downright lies that Biden told or the illegality and irresponsibility of their policies, such as the open border or their training of kids. They are completely captured by the liberal left, indeed they ARE the Liberal left. Now that the election is over it’s 2016 all over again for them. Everything the Trump administration does is wrong/illegal/corrupt/extreme/hard right, etc. No consideration is ever given to the effects of illegal immigration on schools, town halls, hospitals, etc. or the fact that 87% of ALL voters want illegal immigrants repatriated. This is the agenda President Trump ran and won on. He is doing what we want him to do. So reading out selected (or made up) comments from listeners along the lines of “by even covering this administration are you not also giving it legitimacy?” just shows you up. Look BBC, wake up to your own bias and arrogance and stop pretending to be genuinely reporting US politics. You’re not. You should just call yourself Libs Against Trump, it would be more accurate than “Americast”. You are NOT that

The Elon Musk gesture was the last straw. He used to make a heart gesture with two hands and reach them both out. Americast couldn’t be bothered to note this

I so look forward to each episode of Americast. I love your perspective and humor. You help us Americans not to take ourselves so seriously while delivering accurate reporting. Please don't stop after the election!

This podcast used to be a good and fairly unbiased view of American politics, but they have swung so far left it’s unbelievable, do better.

This episode was just terrible. Thinly reported and reflecting a poor understanding of the American political scene. I will unfollow. The need for good analysis of the coming four years is greater than ever, and this is not it. Not worth the time.
