Customer Reviews
Good - is this slowed down??
I’ve listened to this daily for years now. After listening over time, I seriously believe they production team has slowed down the audio to about .85. Because of that, it’s impossible to listen to unless it’s x1.5...
Good stuff, but down slow down the audio for more ads!!
Love the WSJ podcast!! Just one thing..
Please remove the Facebook advertisement. We all know they don’t care about privacy laws and they just want regulars to change them to facebook’s advantage. I hate hearing their advertisement and I’m sure I’m not the only one.
Garbage financial reporting
For example, they reported on the Biden spending plan but failed to mention that he wants to double capital gains tax. Don’t you think that’s an important detail for investors?
