Ebro in the Morning Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I can’t stand how Ebro cuts off his co-hosts when they’re in mid-sentence. He does is to Laura and Peter all the time!!! It’s so disrespectful and annoying. They have valuable thoughts and comments to share too! Sometimes the co-hosts will be in the middle of making a point or telling a story and Ebro interjects as if their views don’t matter. I enjoy EVERYONE on the show…even Ebro. Sometimes he needs to shaddup though and practice listening. Shani, hit the button!

I grew up listening to Elvis Duran and the Z Morning Zoo but eventually came across Cipha Sounds and Rosenberg’s morning show and switched over. After Cipha became a disgrace and the show became Ebro in the Morning, I immediately loved the new show. I love everyone on the show. My wife who does not listen tells me she sees why I like them so much because the crew seems to genuinely like each other. I’m not a hip hop head so the podcast is perfect for me because I really love the discussions they have. It’s a great balance of making sure the important news is reported as well as keeping the show fun. I wish I could attend one of their shows and just chill in the corner and observe it all.

Please keep giving music history lessons on white ish Wednesday! Love the music knowledge y'all drop. It makes me so excited to listen and get surprised by what you play.

Shout to Ebro, Rosenberg, Laura, Shaunie,DJ Cas, DJ Jon, Producer Grif and Captain Louie. This is the most socially aware Morning Crew period. From curbed, to the guru segment, laced throughout the political and hip hop dialogue you are keeping the people aware of what’s happening and how it impacts the people no matter where you live. I appreciate you all and keep forcing listeners to turn their gaze to the real.

As a longtime fan and listener, I have to commend this show for its incredible blend of humor, insight, and cultural commentary. I’ve enjoyed it so much that it became my morning ritual—I’d tune in on the podcast every day and encourage my friends to do the same. The way it touches on music, pop culture, and hip-hop culture, all wrapped in hilarious banter, has always felt fresh and engaging. I especially love the segments featuring the Guru and hot topics They’re truly standout moments.

However, I’ve noticed a shift lately that’s been disappointing. The focus on important pop culture conversations—ones that elevate and reflect the richness of Black culture—has taken a backseat. Instead, the conversations seem to circle endlessly around one subject: Drake. To be clear, it’s not a discussion of his artistry or his place in hip-hop. It’s turned into what feels like daily critiques, bordering on outright disdain. And while critique is fair and often necessary, this constant focus feels more like bullying than thoughtful discourse.

There’s so much happening in our culture worth celebrating and dissecting—albums like Kendrick’s, stories of Black excellence, and other dynamic moments shaping the culture today. Other platforms have successfully struck this balance, diving into nuanced discussions about Black culture in ways that feel inclusive and uplifting. Unfortunately, this show seems stuck in a repetitive cycle of drake, and it’s losing the spark that once made it so engaging. No one likes a pile on.

I used to tune in daily with excitement. Now, when I see Drake listed as a topic, I skip the episode. And lately, it’s happening so often that I’ve started to explore other shows to fill the void. It pains me to say this, but if the current trend continues, I may have to unfollow. I hope the show can get back to the vibrant, multifaceted discussions that made it so special in the first place.

With love and respect,
A loyal listener hoping for a return to form.

This morning show is great when Ebro refrains from interrupting and focusing too much on politics. The moments dedicated to hip-hop are enjoyable and keep the show engaging. However, there's room for improvement in balancing topics to cater to all listeners. Overall, a okay experience for hip-hop enthusiasts.
