    The brief, focused and direct form of this podcast is nice for a change. Byron’s effort to give a politically impartial presentation is very much appreciated. But please....get a better intro/outride sound!!
  • Wspers
    Where’s the Beef (podcast)?
    Like the podcast when it’s available! Not consistent programming. Sometimes it’s daily and sometimes it’s not. I like to listen to the same podcasts daily and chose different ones to get different views of the days news. When a day or two are skipped I have to search for another podcast and I may decide I like it better then yours! 3 star rating due to consistency, not content.

    A good daily habit
    Byron delivers an informative 15 to 20 minutes daily that really does fill in the gaps of the important stories of the day. He really doesn’t pull any punches. A daily habit. Highly recommend it.

    Fantastic Show
    Byron York is excellent at presenting what’s happening in political news, by presenting historical data, current data, and without being a pretentious talking head. He’s a good guy and his show has become essential listening.

    Byron is my favorite political pundit. He’s measured and insightful and I learn something every podcast. His “no chitchat” approach is beyond refreshing.

    Excellent primer on the illegal immigrant issue
    They are Illegally in the country, but can utilize the asylum claim. Thank you for solid facts and not opinion.
  • Rico-Blondie
    Excellent episode with Hageman
    If we had more politicians like her, with her knowledge of the issues that face her state and the nation, we might get out of this mess.

  • Sassy but bright
    Straight shooter
    I so appreciate Byron York’s podcasts and newsletters. He doesn’t pontificate; he speaks with wisdom and clarity in a rare, unbiased manner with researched facts, not hearsay nor rumors. He points out the fallacies and fake news, regardless of the political affiliation. When something is wrong, it’s wrong. Thank you, Byron. So glad I learned of your work via Bill Bennett’s Morning in America show several years back.

    Enjoyed hearing Byron weekly on the Hugh Hewitt show and finally listened to his podcast. Appreciate how Byron’s take on things most always tells me something I didn’t consider before
  • Skeeter7777
    “Get right down to it”
    Maybe someday he’ll make them longer and give us a little chitchat too. I always tune in hoping to hear a little chit chat. That’s why I keep coming back.
  • Mulligan13

  • cremefracas
    Great pod/newscast
    Listen to every episode
  • Frankly Exhausted
    One sided point of view
    Let me first state that I am a Republican. I just must write a post after listening to April 11th’s podcast. Byron went on and on about the recent “Super Spreader” event and how so many Democrats contracted COVID, etc. He kept comparing it to the Trump Rally’s and Amy Barrett’s ceremony among things. However, he never did mention the fact things are just a wee bit different now than back then (vaccines). What a lopsided podcast. Howard Kurtz also went on this rant but at least mentioned things are different. If all you want is a one-sided point of a view, then knock your socks off listening to Byron but I have had enough!
  • aihpcfl
    Must Listen
    Informative take on political news.
  • LH DSH
    Just the facts
    Hard news straight up. He delivers the facts in an organized manner, provides sources when possible, and manages to do so without injecting his personal bias.
  • Chrisnmandy2004
    Byron is always great!
    Consistent, sober, insightful, seasoned analysis.
  • GK-AZ
    Byron’s amazing low key podcast!
    Byron has the best demeanor - and once you listen to this podcast for a bit, you may find yourself wondering why he isn’t on Fox and other outlets even more! The show is calm, concise, and his quick narrow focus leaves you with a feeling like in a good South Park episode, when Kyle or Stan turns to the camera and says “You know, I learned something today . . . “. Byron can be pointed, but it’s always wrapped in his very agreeable manner, so it comes off very well. I wish him the best with the show!
  • TSL Sr
    Best Podcast Yet
    Byron nails it. He should give a master class. Keep it short, hit the main points, give your analysis and opinion without becoming a partisan hack. I’ve alway enjoyed reading his articles and watching his TV analysis, but his podcast is simply the best. THX Byron.
  • Z71Anubis
    Byron is the best
    Byron has one of the best minds out there but THE Worst bumper music on a podcast.
  • hamiltonbda
    Super biased
    I like to listen to both sides, because I’m quite aware of how the different networks skew their coverage and presentations to capture the nation’s attention but this podcast is just ridiculous. Nearly everything he says is conjecture. Most of his opinions are generally unsubstantiated. I listened to multiple episodes before just giving up. Maybe some preparation and fact checking would help.
  • +listener
    No Chitchat
    Excellent, I take advantage of every opportunity to listen to Byron York. Thank you
  • Textdgh
    No pizzazz, just great information.
    I’ve always liked listening to Byron York. He is solid and very smart. My only complaint is that I wish the podcast would go longer. I really appreciate the guy’s intelligence.
  • Badger 10
    With the months leading up to the 2020 election
    York was an excellent source for impacting political truth. Cutting passed the noise and tuning into the signal. But York has now resorted to a form of self preservation and will only go as far as the scripted nonsense narrative that is typical on the neocon soapboxs and the progressive bull horns in the media. With the months leading into the 2020 election and with each passing weeks beyond the appointment of Biden, it has become very apparent that York has become lazy, complacent, or possibly compromised and no longer has the will or the drive to get to the core truth in political affairs. His denial that the 2020 election is based on voting fraud and should be investigated thoroughly speaks volumes at York’s lack of commitment to integrity.
  • JoycieAnne
    Thank you Byron.
    I appreciate you explaining all the J6 stuff. It’s hard to separate hyperbole from fact when reading the various stories about it. Your short podcasts reviewing the key points are very helpful. Thanks!
