Great weekly roundup

I’m decidedly not an expert when it comes to politics, but I always try to keep abreast of what’s going on in the halls of power. This is a great weekly analysis of what’s going on in Washington. NJ’s reporters are even handed and provide solid commentary. Only thing I wish is that it came out more frequently due to the fast-paced nature of political news these days.

The surprise me segment is not my favorite part of the podcast

It's all right, but it's not my favorite. Everything before that statement is my favorite.

Definitely Worth a Listen!

This is a great podcast for people who want to get tuned in very quickly. The host and panel manage get pretty in-depth for a 30-ish minute format. The host especially seems very informed on the issues and all in all does a great job managing the flow of the conversations.
