- 1A Week Roundup used to be much better,
1A used to be much better and quite good. Then...
On the Friday week in review show, they replaced the male host, and made the panel predominantly female.
It is worse. And more narrowly focused.
Way to be inclusive. No hostile intentions?
Toxic!!

United States2 months ago - best in the biz
I’ve been listening to NPR distributions well over a decade thanks to my parents playing it when I was a child. I almost broke with NPR as a whole when they consistently failed to accurately report the genocide occurring in Palestine, but it was this specific pod which kept me in the NPR ecosystem. Jenn White and her cohosts like Todd Zwillich never miss the mark and are so genuine and earnest in their reporting that I end each episode desperate for more- even after the news roundups! They’ve go... more

The content and people interviewed were so vague about what the dept of education does its no wonder that the Trump Admin has discontinued it. Collect data, yes, but how is this data used - no specific examples. After school programs, yes, but what do these programs do - improve education outcomes or provide baby sitting? Enforce racial justice. , yes, but we already know that Trump doesn’t want to spend money on that. If I were a Trump or a supporter, I’d brush the entire interview off as tri... more

Thank you for not going soft, or relying on AI, or reporting on the gen z stare, which is not a story. Now more than ever I know you need financial support. Now more than ever I want to contribute, yet now more than ever I face economic and social instability. Keep it up

Great collection of guests who seem to be truly “informed sources”. I could not get over the Trump supporting staffer Brian, who repeated talked in terms of “Welfare fraudsters”, just like Reagan in 1980. As Scrooge replied to not supporting those in need … “are there no workhouses, are there no prisons”. Brian would let people just wallow. Sad.
