What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This has become one of my favorite political podcasts and the host is also one of my favorite anchors. I am a centrist democrat and I listen to and watch Fox quite often and I am happy to be listening to this every night after work! The host is on point on issues that matter to me and I really recommend this after a hard days work to catch up on the nightly news!

Just the facts ma’am. If you’re tired of the vacuous commentary of the Fox News opinion shows, but actually like some decent fact-based and balanced commentary on the actual news then this is the podcast for you. Brett Baier brings sober commentary and is surrounded by the thoughtful panelists that you get on Special Report or Fox News Sunday. Great contextualization of politics.

Arctic_Knight907 · Sep 2021

It's hard to find straight news in America nowadays but Bret Baier does the best job he can. The conversation topics are fair and he talks about issues on the right and left. My only complaint would be that his guests are much more frequently on the right of the spectrum than the left, but that's what you would expect from Fox News.

ggfgvfvypcfctidrutdits · Jan 2021

Usually this is a five star podcast, and it would be for this episode as well if it weren’t for all the background noise. Motorcycles revving, people arguing, etc. I understand and commiserate with the speakers having to deal with issues due to the virus everywhere, but certainly closing the window, or insuring people around you are quiet while you are working isn’t too very difficult to arrange.
