Customer Reviews
Excellent podcast
I'd like to address Diana and LeCheesehead reviews: I feel like you don't understand the concept. This Daily News BRIEFING (note the word BRIEF) is just a quick few minutes headlines to address some news of the day. It is NOT a full hour or so newscast.....for that, you need to to elsewhere. Claudia's podcast is awesome. Look forward to it every day. THANKS!
My #1 source for Pennsylvania news
Claudia has made Today in PA mandatory listening in our house. We grt more useful information, and feel more informed in these few minutes than we are with many TV newscasts. Thanks, Claudia, keep up the great work.
huh????
surely there’s more than 3 minutes worth of notable news happening in the entire state! this is basically a waste of time. it could be so much better and more informative. i don’t really understand it’s purpose. and the exaggerated voice and enunciation of the host are incredibly annoying. i don’t like leaving negative reviews but it needed to be said
