I am a news & podcast junkie but some days I don’t have time to catch up on current events. 47 Morning Update is long overdue—it’s fast paced, no chit-chat—quick, accurate news. Thank you Ben (and Ted) for keeping us informed!
This podcast is a great daily update. In just a few minutes you can stay abreast of the daily developments in the Trump administration.
Moments before I heard about this podcast on an ad in Ben's other show I'd been looking for a show that tracks the sitting President's work in real time. It was AMAZING cause as far as I can see its the only one. Unsurprisingly, this didn't come up in my search. I just hope as time goes on he won't stay committed to the micro-episode length. I love it now, if he's not leaving stuff out, but I expect he'll have to as the term moves beyond the first 100 days. Presidents seem very busy. I also hope he keeps it up regardless of who's in office. We need a clearer idea of what's going on with the Presidents. I just feel like history would be very different if we'd had this kind of show during Regan, the Bushes, Clinton, Obama, Biden.
Nice work Ben! A daily update that is brief, but with enough information to understand the context. No headline-only snippets. The juice is worth the 15 or so minute squeeze!
I used to enjoy the show when it first came out. I’d listen every day. Over the past few months, the advertisements now take up close to 45% of the show, 50% is now just pre recorded conversations from his other shows or news clips and only about 5% of actual commentary. I used to enjoy listening to Ben’s take on things, but the show barely has any of that any longer.
