I like the tight and concise style of presentation. No fanfare, drums, or annoying background noise. Just the facts clearly spoken and done. Yet topic coverage is complete. Good job.
My favorite way to get a little more in depth and insight in the daily news.
Informative, fairly concise
CNN's One Thing podcast features interviews with journalists, writers, politicians, and others directly concerned with a particular issue of national importance. The interviewer asks pertinent questions, and at a maximum of about 20 minutes, I find it easier to fit into my schedule.
I truly love your show.
I wish I knew how to express this, but I’m legally blind so I don’t watch TV. I get my news from CNN in all its forms. And “one thing“ is one of my favorite productions in that it’s in-depth and easily digestible. I wouldn’t miss it and I’m delighted that I can hear it on Wednesdays and Sundays.Thanks everyone for the hard work you do to keep me informed.
