What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This is a great briefing for up to date business reports. The morning briefing is great for when I take a shower, while I listen to the afternoon and Closing Bell briefings during my lunch break and commute home from work respectively. One thing that would help this podcast is an Opening Bell brief for whenever the stock markets open. Overall, great news updates from this series.

mjnorcross · Jan 2023

I’m a daily listener, disabled and from a journalism and communications background. You don’t have to look far in Disabled Twitter, Autism Twitter and disabled and autistic communities online and off to discover all the damage AS has done to autistic adults and kids. AS still promotes ABA treatment and actively works to eradicate nonverbal autistic people, in methods medicine finally has reviewed and advised is malpractice and even torturous. AS has a long history of even worse actions that’s created irreparable harm, and while I understand AS wants a clean slate to reinvent itself in autism, it’s not owned up to and made apologies to the many it harmed the over years. If you take ads from this, understand you traumatize many autistic listeners, and uphold an organization widely decried and avoided in patient and provider communities. Otherwise, good show.

emily_rj · Aug 2020

In this day and age, news is far too verbose, this podcast is succinct and to the point. Outstanding.

rosemary focaccia · May 2020

Great short and to the point business podcast. The recording level is really bad though. Ad is normal level then the meat of the podcast is really soft. Doesn’t happen on the other WSJ podcasts. Need to fix that.

jimjsb · Feb 2020

I don’t enjoy ads and this podcast has 30 seconds of ads in the beginning and at least 15 seconds of ads at the end. The podcast is only a 2 minute segment making 50% of its content just ads.

aqedhuj · Jan 2022

Repeating that same ad over and over detracts from the podcast....I understand the need to monetize the podcast and generate revenue, but to have half the podcast run time devoted to ads (and the same ad over and over) is annoying.
