Customer Reviews
it’s goood but from far away
from far away the new cover art looks like a vacuum cleaner
Dropping them as they’re now compromised
I can no longer call NPR credible news, they’re biased especially when covering the anti genocide, pro Palestinian, and cease fire protests. I’m done.
Meh
I have had this on my list so I can keep up with general events, but it’s just not impressive. The reporting is surface level and uninteresting.
I listen to left, right, and center podcasts, but weeding this one out because it’s mediocre.
