Customer Reviews
Indeed the Best Magazine
The best magazine in print today. Those properties don’t always travel as well in the podcast format. The guests/topics are often interesting, sometimes compelling. David Remnick is mult-italented: nearly as keen a podcast host as he is an editor. There is value in brevity however, some topics require the long form.

The May 17, 2024 episode interview of John F Kennedy Jr disappointed me. David Remnick asked some excellent questions but the style and tone of his interview seemed dismissive. Especially concerning to me was the question about JFK jr’s regularly attending support groups. I hope I missed understood the point of this question. I am highly supportive of people publicly acknowledging that they attend to their mental/emotional health. I appreciate the interview but I I prefer journalism that takes a tone of seeking knowledge vs judgmental. Overall I get a lot out of the podcast and thank you all at the New Yorker for your fine work. Camille
What is this?
I’m not exactly sure what I’m listening to here. I specifically wanted to learn more about RFK, (he is increasingly in the news). I was listening to the July interview expecting a question and response format, but the editing keeps pausing before a full response from RFK, inserting an overlay of the journalist's thoughts and additional information about the topics RFK is speaking about. However, we are not hearing the words from RFKs own mouth. It’s rather frustrating…
