    Asks Brian Dahle loaded questions
    Continually asks Dahle Loaded questions. Tries to get him to disagree with his constituents constantly, all while agreeing with everything Newsom says, and asking him weak questions.

    Nothing like throwing an entire metropolitan area under the bus because of the racist comments of one person towards an elected official. I’ll repeat, an elected official. If this was “the Mississippi of the south” she would not be our mayor. Racism should never be tolerated, but neither should we categorize an entire population based on the behavior of one or a few or even several people. He’s an outlier which is evidenced by our mayors election.

    Go To Commute Podcast
    Love listening to this podcast on my way to or from work. It’s the perfect length and catches me up on the important news headlines as well as dive deeper into topics I don’t know as much about. I always learn something! I also like the diversity in topics and the people interviewed.
  • Lauren Mapp
    I love the new format!
    I've always liked this podcast, but the new format is exceptionally great! I love the news bites at the top of the show, the interviews with reporters, and the inclusion of insight from the editorial board.
  • Docleib
    No notice that they stopped
    Is there a break? Have they stopped all together? What’s happening?
  • s18
    Could be so much better
    I appreciate the effort to share local news in a digestible format, but for many reasons this podcast is painful to listen to. They have styled it off of the NYT Daily but the result is a slow, boring podcast with reporters that are unfamiliar with the *audio* format. Many of the reporters do not have dynamic radio voices or presentation which results in an awkward conversation. I would much prefer to have several stories in one podcast so I can get a general idea of the local news. Sorry for the harsh feedback but I just can’t listen to it as it is right now.

    Some of the reporters need to gain some confidence.
    I enjoy the content, but friendly note that some reporters featured need to work on their confidence in speaking and presentation. There are a lot of filler words (um, uhhh, long pause) this is something that can be overcome come with practice and constructive criticism, if not it will limit the trajectory of both this podcast and the reporter’s career needlessly. Sincerely a local fan who had to work on my own speaking confidence.

    Pretty good
    Pretty good but not without some left bias. Pandering to their perceived audience?
  • jonathanmqz
    I really like this.
    I found them on sound cloud, but I usually listen to podcast on this app and I really like the information. They have really been covering good topics.
  • mypaperstuff
    Just what I wanted!
    Great to have short podcast based on local news. Thanks!
