It’s getting better
I really wasn’t a fan of Kristen after her interview with Donald Trump. However, I believe she’s gotten stronger in the role. She asks hard questions and won’t let her guests sidestep the questions with clever word play. This may not be appreciated by many listeners, but I want someone who isn’t afraid to get to the truth of the question being asked and get the guest on record. There are many instances where politicians dominate interviews and talk over the interviewer as if they are plugging a product or a new tv show. We’ve become to accustomed to that IMO. The job of a journalist is to get to the truth and hold the politician accountable. Why? Because we elected them and they need to be accountable to the people.
I’m not giving a 5 star rating because I still think she’s has done work to do. And by the way, props to Chuck for calling out NBC for their hire of the ex RNC chair.

“If it’s any day of the week… it’s Meet the Press” :(
Meet the Press seemed more exceptional when it was only on on Sundays. The daily Meet the Press: Now format seems to hamper the power of the Sunday only production.
I like Kirsten Welker, she resists guests talking over her, which is a pet peeve of mine. Another big plus; she points out when an interviewee is sidestepping a probing question and asks again. That’s what I come to see! (Tim Russert must be smiling down).
Hopefully, the daily format is a phase, and will go the way of the Dinos (without the massive asteroid hitting the planet of course).
Until then, it would be acceptable if the Meet the Press and the Meet the Press: Now podcasts were separated so listeners could download one or the other or both at their preference.
