What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I’ve been appreciating Amy Goodman and Democracy Now! since it was a Pacifica radio show before it became a TV show as well (from KPFA in the SF Bay Area). Love, love, love this show. In fact, it’s the ONLY news show I watch on a daily basis because of its progressive bent and lack of sensationalism. I also love Juan Gonzalez and Nermeen Shaikh. And now there are extended shows to hear more from guests and in-depth discussion. And transcripts. And a Spanish version. Just keeps getting better and better. I donate monthly and I feel everyone show donate something, anything.

PCN2 · Jun 2023

This show models the value of excellence and integrity in activist reporting. You will learn more here in one morning than you could learn in a month of gentle morning shows from The NY Times or NPR, which often resort to sanitized language in a futile attempt to appear unbiased, or take quotes from “both sides” without asking hard questions to anyone who actually wields power. I can’t listen every day because it can be too much truth to bear sometimes but there is Amy G, seemingly tireless, steady, present for a new generation— thank God for that— I just hope that she dances at the end of the day to her fabulous soundtracks!

Briseis27 · Dec 2022

Straightforward, no-spin coverage on critical issues spanning the globe & ignored or given cursory mention by mainstream media. If cable news outlets were to broadcast real journalism into the living rooms across America, the nation could have the well-informed populace needed for our democracy to survive. Democracy Now sets the gold standard.

Superstumbler · May 2022

The amount of “news” sources out there is overwhelming in terms of learning/knowing of the dire threats against those fighting for actual democracy. If you’re looking to narrow down the countless independent sources who stand up to capitalist/racist thuggery to just one a day, you cannot go wrong making Amy Goodman and her team your 1 daily go-to.

Kyussforever · Feb 2021

I am a longtime viewer and listener of the show. I have admired Amy’s and especially Juan’s work throughout the years. The coverage of the latest from Cuba is truly disappointing. Using old footage of Havana, not addressing the disappearances, the hospital conditions and deaths, the internet/intranet blackout, the changes in only allowing US currency in food stores which black and brown Cubans do not have access to, the forced drafting of protesters. They are chanting “Libertad de la dictadura”. Please don’t use this show to push a political agenda. You are losing credibility with your latine audience.
