The World in Brief from The Economist - Podcast Rankings and reviews

It’s as if NPR noticed that other parts of the world were newsworthy, or if the BBC could figure out how to be concise. I don’t need my news providers to editorialize or emote. The criticisms that other listeners have about this informational podcast are bizarre. I get more information about the state of the world per-second with this podcast than with any competitor, and I’ve tried them all.

I pay a lot of money to have a subscription to the Economist. I like the news, but the podcasts drive me crazy. They repeat Word for Word the same story in different podcasts. It actually increases the time I have to invest to fast forward or delete and I’m always wondering what I missed because I’ve had to jump over stuff. I can’t waste my time digging through stuff I’ve already heard. it’s actually driving me to other sources for news.

Giving up on this. Tired of hearing the same thing over and over
