Make Me Smart

Each weekday, Marketplace’s Kai Ryssdal and Kimberly Adams make today make sense. Along with our supersmart listeners, we break down happenings in tech, the economy and culture. Every Tuesday we bring on a guest to dive deeper into one important topic. Because none of us is as smart as all of us.

Unfiltered analysys

This is just what I need these days. An unfilered analysis of the chaos thats happening around up. I've been a fan of Kai's from Marketplace and love the energy Kimberly brings. Thay are telling it like it is these days and I'm all in for it.
Biased journalism
5d ago
I began following this podcast last year and loved it at the start, however, ever since election season both Kimberly and Kai’s political left leanings have been apparent and it feels like it totally affects their ability to provide objective journalism. Unfortunately unfollowing.
Best pod ever!!!!!

Good except for Fridays
Apr 5
The Friday podcasts are extraordinary time-wasters, with mindless banter about drinks as opposed to the actual news. There is so much going on in the world; why do we need to suffer through the endless retreads of Kai and his IPAs? Just ditch the segment, please!
