Barbara
Thanks for sharing the uplifting story about Barbara's lung transplant. 😊
John Lewis
Beautiful piece about John Lewis by Michele Norris. We so need politicians to follow in his footsteps, especially right now, when the integrity and courage that defined him, are in such short supply. Thank you
Antifa at Gettysburg
Great show, but I wish the media would say the obvious: we do know in fact that Antifa never conforms to this sort of online behavior. This is not Antifa modus operandi. You spent a minute reporting that there were clues this might be a hoax, but the most obvious one goes unsaid. Why can’t you say that Antifa, whatever you think of the movement, does not work this way. They don’t put out posters to invite the organization to picnic and burn flags at national monuments. They aren’t even an organization. That seems pertinent to the reporting, because Antifa is slandered by this sort of politics. That seems to me like it belongs in the story, because people think Antifa is equivalent to armed militias and racist groups on the right. I agree with the local official who said that the far right already looks idiotic without such trolling. But you have left in place the Antifa straw man. Why not report also on what Antifa is and isn’t, so people can have a reasonable sense of what anti-fascist politics means and how it works? Thanks.

It’s reports like this that make Post Reports such a great podcast! The best daily news podcast there is!
Functional, reliable
When I want to hear Post Reports and remain informed and connected to the world around me, the app provides me with dependable service. I enjoy the autonomy afforded by quality reporting available on the go.
Outstanding
Outstanding report on the surge in Texas and the impact on the health care system. Terrific journalism.

Thank you
Thank you for delivering all the news we need to stay informed in this crazy world. I listen everyday while I'm at work.
Smartest podcast out there!
I am so glad I discovered Post Report. I feel much better informed of our current affairs and well armed to discuss issues. Not easy in 20+ minutes a day.

Martine Powers sounds like your smart buddy who helps you figure things out.

Great review of the news. Listening every day
Cursed Platoon
Just finished listening to both parts of “The Cursed Platoon”. This was a particularly power story. As someone with PTSD, I thought the description of having PTSD was spot on. I wish I could tell the men who were interviewed that there others who have been betrayed by authority
Sharp, focused and unpretentious
Post Reports is now my favorite daily news podcast, with special kudos to the excellent Martine Powers, whose interviewing and presentation style is warm, curious and extremely intelligent. And it hasn’t become pretentious or overly ‘cute’. I was an early fan of the NYT The Daily, but it has become mannered, including production flourishes and those irritating outtakes. Barbaro endlessly reiterated his interviewee’s responses and asks fey, naive questions. I lost interest and patience with The Atlantic’s podcast. Might just be my opinion, but I’ll stick with Martine!
Important
My brother got me on this podcast and I’ve been thanking him ever since. Your reporting is terrific. The topics are always relevant. The analysis and critiques are well balanced and informed. A victory for journalism and for us listeners. Thank you so much! Go Post Reports Go!! From Toronto, Canada.
Martine makes my day
I love to listen to Martine’s voice. She digs into stories and questions the subjects well...albeit sometimes a bit predictable. I really enjoy listening to this podcast.
Martine Powers is a great host
I’ve been a fan of her reporting and am so happy to hear her voice on a daily basis!
Brilliant
I'm regularly amazed at the quality of this show's host, guests, reporting and perspective. Bravo!
“Clearly” he wanted to talk to the people
Martine’s use of “clearly” is wrong and misleading. There was nothing clear about what the President wanted to do and there was no clear indication he wanted to talk to the people. We need to be careful with language. Here, the use of the word “clearly” makes me feel Martine had expectations herself and I can help but infer from it a bias.
Great Daily News Podcast
I’m a news junkie as a former journalist and I appreciate the format and breadth of issues covered with this podcast. I enjoy ending my workday with an update on the news so I can stay informed and this podcast presents the news in an easy-to-digest and entertaining format. Well done!
Thank You
I’m a 13 year old and i’m just starting to care about current events and this is my go to early morning podcast thank you so much. I especially look forward to your weekend specials they always brighten my day!
A daily go-to
This is my favorite news podcast! High quality reporting on the current headlines and issues, but also some stories that are a little more obscure but still relevant. The “one more thing” segment at the end always offers really interesting tidbits.
Brilliant US background news
A must-hear podcast for any North European who wants objective background news from the US. Impresses with a calm and pleasant presentation as well as solid journalism on a variety of subjects primarily from the US, but also with interesting and well researched reports from other parts of the world! A brilliant news report during an afternoon walk!
Post Reports continues the good fight against tyranny, darkness & corruption.
Post Reports is simply wonderful. The programming is both elegant and “down home.” The opening theme music includes the recordings of various reporters on the phone - that aural blend stokes me with anticipation and fills me peace. It’s a peace that is rooted in the enduring legacy and integrity of the Washington Post. Martine Powers, the host, has a lovely voice that invites listeners to settle in for a good cup of tea and enjoy a deeply informed conversation. The team of producers and engineers consistently deliver a weekday program that is on par with any quality news broadcast available. As a nation, we are starved for real information and platforms of integrity. I’m grateful for the young brilliant people that sacrifice, endure false claims, track the truth and nourish our nation. Hosts, producers, engineers all are heroes, devoting their lives to that quintessential 4th Branch of government. Post Reports presents high quality word smithing that continues the good fight against tyranny, darkness & corruption. David Barrow Wiley, Tallahassee, FL
Excellent range of daily topics
This is my go-to podcast for my daily (long) walk. I get solid in-depth reporting on a wide range of issues related to the pandemic and thus feel better educated and more aware of the state our world is in. Thanks.
