    Useful but fluffy
    Not always hard-hitting, but short & sweet.

    Interesting bites of information
    This podcast provides interesting bites of information. I wish it were not two volume clicks louder than all other podcasts.
  • Ty2Runr
    Download broken
    I have been getting 8006 errors while trying to download any of the 60-whatever podcasts for the past couple weeks. Can this be fixed?
  • maxdemoya
    Da error 8006 desde Noviembre
    Desde mediados de noviembre al tratar de actualizarlo da error 8006 y no baja los nuevos episodios. From mid-November to try to update it gives error 8006 and does not download the new episodes.
  • Steven Fourby
    Problem
    None of the 60 second podcast will down load anymore. Hope they get it fixed. love these news briefs.
  • SE Builders
    I love it
    Good quick info done right!
  • Harsh But Fair
    Has become journalistically too soft
    Misleading, non-critical reports on fake "holograms" and a vaporware "tablets" were the straws that broke this camel's back.
