Today’s show about the Gulf of Mexico was great until the second half when the female reporter came in with the vocal fry. Reporters on podcasts need to know that especially when one is listening through headphones/airpods, it is unbearable to listen to a voice with the vocal fry. Please try and speak normally!

Please do yourself a favor and stop embarrassing yourselves. Used to like this thing. Now, you are just a mouth piece for the NY democrats. All of us NYers have left the chat. Democrats have turned insane. How much do they give you??

Journalism should inform, challenge, and present a well-rounded perspective. Today Explained does none of that. Instead, it peddles a one-sided narrative, masquerading as serious reporting while shamelessly ignoring inconvenient facts and perspectives. With each episode, it becomes painfully clear that this podcast is less about journalism and more about ideological reinforcement. The hosts cherry-pick sources, frame discussions to fit their bias, and completely disregard objectivity in favor of propaganda. Rather than engaging in thoughtful discourse, they resort to moral grandstanding—dismissing dissenting voices as ignorant or dangerous rather than engaging with them in good faith. At a time when trust in media is at an all-time low, Today Explained is a relic of the worst kind—one that epitomizes why audiences are abandoning biased outlets in search of real reporting. If you want insight, balance, or even a shred of intellectual honesty, look elsewhere. The hosts should be ashamed of what they’ve done to journalism.

My favorite daily news podcast, hands down. I even listen to the reruns. Sean is relatable and funny and human! I bet he’s a blast to hang with. I always picture him wearing a hot pink polo shirt because of the ep about his high school frenemy. I love when he has his mom on the show and, unrelated, the running joke for “This is a NO” is hilarious. I loved Noel on NPR and I’m finally starting to warm up to her hosting style. Love you guys!!

Very informative and very entertaining, always with a self-deprecating approach to important news stories.

Not a fair representation of what is going on. The focus is on pushing a liberal agenda instead of providing news.

HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY “TODAY EXPLAINED” Thanks for all you do, and provide for us, and may you have many more … although in web years, it could still seem short. - s.jxn - ga

Who has their tin foil hats on now? Libs are scared because the DEI sham as been ousted and their cushy jobs are in jeopardy.

Normally enjoy the show, but lately, with the state of the US, I am finding hard to accept Sean’s “cutesy” and downplaying of what’s happening. I have to take a break from the show. Also, I can’t stand the high falsetto singer. So grating even when I enjoyed the show!

Literally laugh out loud about Adam Schiff’s self-delusional comment about one party is “fighting for the working people”, with no pushback from the host. The legitimacy of the entire Liberal consensus is gone bc that’s exactly what Dems didn’t do, and hasn’t been doing for decades. More abysmal future awaits.
