Reviews

4.4 out of 5 stars from 901 ratings
  • Great news option for Christian’s

    I really enjoy the bulletin, it gives just enough of the week’s events without being too wordy like a lot of pods out there. I think a lot of the negative reviews are misguided, and written by folks who aren’t willing to be open minded, and misconstrue a moderate viewpoint for a left wing one. People wait for the first hint of something they disagree with and then rate something negatively. This is no way to take in news.

  • Love The Bulletin

    Refreshing to hear about current events and Biblical views from this team. Listening to other news outlets always leaves me feeling hopeless, angry and stressed, but The Bulletin has found a way to shine brighter in the darkness during these difficult times.

  • A Good Reason To Not Be Christian

    My only regret is that one star is the lowest I can rate this show. They are Christian Supremacist through and through.

    These people have no shame and continue to promote Christian Supremacy. After years of arguing that the Church should fill the role health care provider and government should not, they now blame the government for their lies. They are very dishonest people bent on deceiving the world.

    Mike Cospar should not have a platform. The man is an American Republican who advocates for... more

  • Great Addition

    Solid Thinking

    I didn’t even know there was another podcast from CT. I love the one from Russell Moore and now will follow this. As a devout Catholic I follow the deep thoughts of our new Pope and the deep thoughts of our Protestant brethren.

  • US / Venezuela

    This podcast is occasionally enlightening and the one star I gave goes to Mike Cosper for being a good host. I just listened to the Jan 6, 2026 episode about the deposing of the dictator (not president) of Venezuela and man was it tone deaf. It might help if you did a follow-up episode with at least one guest who isn’t a sworn enemy of the sitting President of the United States. CT is more and more becoming just another arm of the Democrat controlled left-wing media. So disappointing to see Bill... more

Iranians Speak Up, Jerome Powell Stands Strong, and Grok Under Scrutiny
Q: Christine, welcome to The Bulletin. As we begin, I just want to pause and say how gross this all is to me. I'm supposed to be the neutral voice here on the show, but as a woman, as a mom, as a Christian, as a human, this feels like such a terrible topic to even discuss. Why talk about this at all?
It's essential to address because it reflects real-life consequences of technology where human dignity is compromised and people are treated as mere consumable material.
