    Trump Wins Broad Immunity

    On Monday, the Supreme Court ruled that former President Donald J. Trump is entitled to broad immunity from criminal prosecution for actions that he took while in office.

Overall I love The Daily -

Overall I truly enjoy your podcast. That being said - the Eddie Murphy interview was one of the least interesting interviews I have ever heard. I’m not trying to be negative and I do appreciate Eddie Murphy but the chemistry between your interviewer and talent never clicked and was so painstaking to listen to.

In The Bubble

The NYTimes drinks too much of its own KoolAid. They generate bad press and then back up their bad press via polls driven by their own headlines. They misled the public during the Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction scare, and they’re misleading the public now, treating Biden and Trump with a false equivalence that is sickening. Occasionally a useful story is told, e.g. the home buying racket and its ties to real estate lobby, but most of the time, it feels like you’re listening to someone in the beltway who hasn’t gotten out to take a walk in the sunshine in a very long time. Dumping this lame excuse for journalism from my podcast app.

Amazing how little we are taught about slavery and oppression of others. The Daily is a great part of my morning. Short, insightful and well researched. Thankful for your efforts. GC Am not horse, please don’t address us as “hey”...... Thanks, GC Enjoy Podcasts very much. Listening daily. Tired of hearing long list of contributors, helpers, producers. Do they need to be given Daily? Thanks, Dr. GC Strong Language does not mean filthy language. Was disappointed to start hearing F... this as commonly used as if “normal speech. “Was lucky I listened first before recommending this filth to my students. Dr. GC Really like the podcasts. It is really necessary to hear a LONG list of staff to thank every single podcast? Are their egos needing to be stroked every time there is a podcast? Dr. GC Still enjoying the podcasts. Still tired of LONG list of contributors to preparation of podcast. Too much. Thanks again, Carol So impressed with podcasts but SO tired of long list of staff members who have responsibility to get podcasts out. Is that necessary every day? Dr. GC Like listening but litany of staff is not necessary. Dr. GC Nixon was prosecution target because of crimes he committed. Not because he was President. Missing information on the podcasts does a disservice. Still waiting for less “bragging on who helps with podcasts. “Thought it was better but today litany continues. Dr. GC Thankful for the information on Daily podcasts. Still annoying litany of contributors to producers of program. Guess someone needs ego stroked but so many people are listed. About 2 minutes of bragging rights? Maybe a lottery so 5 are listed instead of ALL. Thanks, Dr. GC Thankful for excellent reports on riot. These anarchists are NOT “protestors or individuals.” Please do not give evil people political correct names. Dr. GC Frustrating when commercials cut off speakers. When the long list of contributors is given perhaps the editorial staff can correct this? Dr. GC Once more long litany of contributing people to production of show. No other podcasts I listen to has such a LONG list of opbeople needing recognition. Unnecessary and boring. Dr. GC. Is it possible to have host consider NOT going through long litany of employees helping with show? Minutes of listings is boring and unnecessary. Always fast forward through that waste of my time. Dr. GC Am going to delete this app. Over 1 minute of bragging rights. Can’t imagine what possible use this is to listeners. Egotistical and frankly these people are getting paid do stop it and do your jobs. Dr. GC So tired of reciting long list of contributors to show. Listed on notes so why should they be recognized verbally? So incredibly boring and wasteful of time. I delete the verbal awards. Dr. GC

Enjoyed the pod but LONG recitation of helpers is a turn off for me.
