I love Post Reports but your story on Fred Trump Jr was almost unbearable because of the obnoxious clacking of the reporters MacBook Pro (the key sound of the butterfly keyboard is unmistakable). I’m surprised Trump stayed on the line because I could barely listen with that terrible background noise. I am a huge fan but this keyboard has reached super villain status

Love it
I really appreciate this podcast. It goes more in depth on a few topics daily without the sensationalism so common these days. Information without added stress is easy to listen to.

Everyday
Solid journalism. The presentation of current political and social issues is engaging. Give it a week, you’ll have a relationship you look forward to the next. Martine Powers is enough reason to listen.

My Favorite podcast!
I listen every day and sometimes twice a day if I replay it for a friend or family member. The wide range of subjects from then and now is one of the best things about the podcast. Thank you for some excellent reporting!

Informative and always interesting podcast
Post Reports is not only informative, but host Martine Powers’ engaging tone and her questions with guest reporters make this podcast a great listen. I learn a lot!

China's long game podcast
I liked the format and the easy-going nonetheless the gumption to take on a challenging and very contemporary subject. However, the **treatment** lacked depth: minimal, if any data references; topically, it appeared that contemporary headlines have been summarized with a few sentences deemed sufficient enough. In summary, a light touch. Neither is it desirable nor is it feasible to be *wonkish* ... but VOICE is a powerful medium to convey near / mid / long term impacts. The participants need to do more homework on WHAT they are wanting to convey and WHY? WHY? WHY? is the fact being mentioned important and how does it fill out the big picture. I have been dealing with China first hand for 20 years and the podcast missed very many core points. Too-lite. With China, there is an elephant in the room and the media has not called it out.

Great Daily News Podcast
I listen to Post Reports most weekday afternoons on my drive home. I really like that they go fairly deep on a few topics. It's available most weekdays which is nice in that I don't feel the need to "catch up" if I miss an episode. It's usually about 20 minutes which makes it perfect for my commute.

Post Reports
The show is great! I look forward to spending time every day listening to interesting, in depth reports on important issues delivered by folks who really know what they are talking about. And keep up the occasional stories that aren’t in the daily news cycle but are really interesting!!

You’re listened to in France too
Hi guys at the WP, just a quick message to let you that your daily effort is needed and highly appreciated here in France. Your insight helps us understand what is going on now on the American political scene but it also has a much more far-reaching effect : no country is impervious to the radical change introduced by the 2016 elections. Listening to you keep us watchful to what the future may have in store for us.

Great for binging
Diverse stories told well. If you’re tired of a constant influx of political stories, this podcast has a good balance for you.

Great for news updates
I started listening to this podcast a month ago and it’s one of my favourites. Gives me relevant news while on my commute. It’s short, gives three news stories and it’s mostly facts with a little opinion on it.
Greatly recommend and will continue to listen.
The “Can he do that?” Podcast is also pretty good.

Surprisingly engaging
I was skeptical when I subscribed that I would be a regular listener, but I found the stories to be truly engaging and supportive of the stories I read on the WaPo news reader app. I unreservedly recommend.

Great daily news digest
Thanks for including story links in the Pod description-saves me steps if I want to read more!
Post Reports is an essential part of my daily news playlist. It focuses on the stories rather than the reporters, as The Other Daily podcast does. Martine is an excellent host, and the segments are just the right length. Recommended!
