We need this
Trailer sounds great. This is an important addition to the audio journalism landscape. Can’t wait to listen on Wednesday!
Can't wait!
Ever since the election I've felt we need more newsy podcasts and not just those opinionated talky ones. Actual updates and reporting. There's too much happening. I'm excited this will be what I'be been waiting for!!!
This is in anticipation of the broadcast
As a local news person, I am looking forward to the podcast. I enjoy reading the Times, so I think it will resonate the stories but, delivered for the ear. I do wonder if there will be identifiable "sections" or just a series of connected stories, like NPR. I also wonder if it will contain actualities. I look forward to supplementing my menu of listening next to AP, NPR, Civics101 and others.
