Customer Reviews
NPR's best programming!
Amazing show! Carl Kasell and Peter Sagal are a humorous team that take the week's news point out the irony, discontinuity, or radicalness. The panel adds comedy to the mix, and together, they are the best way to enjoy the week's events. In my opinion, the Paula Poundstone episodes are the best.
Bill Curtis’s voice is so therapeutic
I would just like to say Bill Curtis‘s voice is the most amazing voice. It’s so therapeutic, and so amazing.
