it would be a great mistake to rely on one newsmedia source to stay on top of everything going on that matters, lt alone to understand well. but if you had to pick one accessible english-language source as starting point, tldr strikes me as a solid contender.

Knowledgeable hosts. Information on various current news events. Enjoyable listening. The YouTube channel is excellent also - that’s how I got directed to the podcast

I believe this show is way too short. I would appreciate if it were longer and I wouldn’t mind ad breaks to support a longer podcast.

The Daily Briefing is great, but the sound mixing makes it so I can’t hear anything!
