Customer Reviews
Truly for the Dispatch Nerds
Can’t get enough of the Dispatch? This is the podcast for you. These guys go deep in their discussions of all things related to the Dispatch.
Want to hear from your favorite Dispatch writers? The hosts of this podcast interview some of our favorite young writers, fact-checkers, and editors of the Morning Dispatch.
My favorite episodes are the interviews. The hosts have mastered the art of asking good questions. The interview with Candidate Michael Wood was one of the best, but I loved all of them. I like the nuanced, but sometimes hard (especially for Mike Wood) questions. And the thoughtful discussions from a variety of viewpoints, progressive to conservative to everyone in between.
The very best people
