Customer Reviews
Forgot how much I love this pod
Highly recommend this show to anyone who’s interested in what’s going on in LA.
Helpful News
I like these twice daily reports with important local news in digestible bits. I also appreciate their longer segments that explore local issues in more depth. Highly recommend for all Angelenos!
Love the podcast, but what’s up with the volume?
I love this local news podcast, and this is why I keep listening to it despite this horrid editing. The podcast itself is very quite, much quieter than other podcasts, so that I have to significantly increase the volume. The ad at the end, however, blasts into your ears. Why would you do that to us, LAist studios?
