What these guys do on NewsBeat is unique and original, the way they interview their guests and use original music to tie it all in is top notch! The topics they bring to the table are all great!

MORE PLEASE! News Beat hits on all podcast cylinders. Engaging storytelling on critical issues of social justice and civil liberties? Check. Digestible format and well-structured segments? Double Check. Compelling narrative and insightful reporting? Triple Check. Bonus: All of it elegantly blended with powerful contemporary music selections. Production value truly shines through. Just a well done series I highly recommend.
