    Insightful Podcast!
    I really find Alex Wagner’s coverage from the field very insightful. Good to hear from non-“experts”/talking heads. Great format and unique way to share points of views. I hope her podcast continues beyond the first 100 days!

    Thought-provoking
    Love hearing from people that are actually affected. Alex doesn’t shy away from the tough questions & has a great way of exploring what the listener wants.

    Thank you for treading into this territory to shed light on how people in that land think and behave.

    10 Stars!!
    I just discovered Alex Wagner this year and now I’m hooked. Her reporting is A-Class and I feel like I’m on a journey around America. Girl, we know you’re tired but grind baby grind! Thank you. You speak for me as an American 🇺🇸
  • pinacoloda
    Love it!
    Thank you, Alex - love the show and you are help keeping me sane through these crazy surreal times!!
  • FLBkgal
    Alex at her best!
    I’ve always enjoyed Alex’s reporting over the years and these podcasts are some of her best. Plus, they’re desperately needed right now. Brava, Alex! Keep up the excellent work. And thanks to your outstanding crew too.

    I want more!
    Once a week is not enough. Such great reporting and interesting perspectives.
  • Centrist Gigi
    Fantastic reporting!
    Ms. Wagner is an excellent reporter! She really works to get all sides of the issue. At first I was annoyed that she talked to Jan 6th rioters family members on their pending release. But it provided me a next level understanding of what happened. I appreciate her honesty, respect her integrity and insight.
  • the original mikejustmike
    Glad to see her reporting
    Alex Wagner has been an amazing replacement for Rachel Maddow, but I’m glad she is moving around and digging in to the surreal mess we’re going through. I wish the audio only podcast would supplement the people speaking with a simultaneous verbal translation like bbc or NPR does. Then I could hear words, not just emotion when a non-English speaker talks.

    Love your excellent reporting, keep it coming!

    Pathological Lier
    MSNBC anchor, that should tell you all you need to know. I wouldn’t waist one minute listening to the lies and propaganda spread by this anchor on a failing news channel.

    Excellence All Around
    Alex Wagner is a superior journalist. She digs into the story of issues and treats all with respect. We need Alex during this unprecedented time.
  • GrandmaKayc
    Excellent
    I appreciate your work Alex. I will be listening to every episode. Thank you for your voice.✌️
  • debllstl
    I like it!
    First episode was interesting! Listening to the interviews with both prisoners’ families at the jail and the injured police officer showed the HUGE divide in how Americans view law, criminal behaviors, and accountability. My heart is with the Capitol police officers who were attacked by their fellow citizens. We can’t ever forget how awful Jan 6 was.

    Trumpland
    Now this is the kind of reporting in which Alex Wagner shines!!! Admittedly, I find her boring as a nightly news anchor. So, I hope her field work reporting is extended.

    Trumpland
    Wow! Great job, Alex! You are an excellent storyteller and I love your deep dives into the humanity element of the characters! Educational too! Easy to listen to, also! No shouty drama delivery that strains my soul like many other podcasters. Looking forward to your new stuff! Thank you!! 😎🤙🏽

    Why do you try to speak so fast. Many, many times you are unintelligible. !!

    Use working class lingo, please!
    You guys—you HAVE to remember that the average American reads at a SIXTH grade level. Do you think most know what an oligarchy is? Use regular language instead of $100 words most folks have never heard before. Use working class lingo! Say robber barons, fat cats, something! But oligarchy? Most Americans don’t even know what “authoritarian” means.

    Reliability
    Alex‘s work becomes more attractive as Nicole becomes less reliable and subject to a pay wall!
  • iSayitoutloud
    Premium only?
    When did the newest shows become premium only? New shows are the only relevant shows. I won’t pay for premium. Sad. Good bye ✌️
  • opedwriter
    Good show. Check deto
    Alex is talented, but sometimes misspeaks; e.g., it’s the Securities & Exchange Commission. Also, please read the POTUS-elect’s words & spare us from his dictatorial, hateful tone.

    Fact Checks Needed
    Don't be a hypocrite Alex. You chided the networks for not fact checking during the debates but you're doing the same thing while you're meeting with potential voters. What's wrong with educating on both sides?

    Shouldn’t her doctors be charged with at least manslaughter. Isn’t a doctor responsible for his actions or inactions, after all the medical board determined it was a wrongful death. That means in essence they let her die. If they were not going to treat her, they could have put her on a plane to someplace that would. It wouldn’t have taken more than a few hours to get her to help. Yeah there may be lawsuits, but this girl is dead. Settlements will not help her.

    Tired of Democratic and Republican Propaganda outlets
    Gave it a try but more of the same. Well done but not even a token attempt at objectivity. If you want someone to massage your biases or conversely someone to despise because you hold other views then this is the show for you. Us free thinkers will continue our search for someone who isn't a party stooge.

    Still getting ads and promos with paid subscription
    I’ve got a paid subscription for MSNBC Premium, but I’m still getting ads. Why? I love the shows and the journalistic expertise behind the stories and the shows, which are great. But please fix this problem, so I can continue to support you with my subscription.
  • My.02
    Disgusted with current coverage
    If you spent an equal amount of time covering all the ways people are plotting to destroy our democracy as you do on wise old man's performance issues you might be a real journalist.

  • sfncar
    Alex doesn’t seem to understand
    Wow! Alex all wound up about the Perry and Jackson appointments to HPSCI — says it’s a problem for the rule of law … ?what? A problem for the intelligence community for sure — but her screaming about rule of law is inexplicable to me. Sounds like she’s thinking about the Judiciary committee … maybe she needs a refresher course?
  • Foggy N. Ocean
    Really?
    F-ing Comey????
  • RECurley
    “Anarchist types with no ideology”
    Your guest is ignorant, but this sort of messaging says quite a bit about his own ideology. It is unfortunate that as an interviewer, Alex Wagner does not even question such rubbish.
  • midwestBlue
    4.2.24
    that reporter you were interviewing in enid, OK said it was a mixed group that supported the recall and then she said progressive leftists...really? not just progressives? you are lame for not having her clarify that and because you didn’t that shows you are a fairly useless msnbc interviewer. maybe just interview dog owners, that’s more your speed.
  • Cenzano
    Can’t do it anymore.
    I’ve been listening to this poor excuse for a show since Rachel went to once a week. I can’t do it anymore. After the SOTU, I listened to this side’s take and then listened to some more center shows, and the difference is like listening to Fox and then a real news network. Maybe it’s lack of charisma coupled with the inability to find her own footing, but Alex is nothing I’m going to waste anymore of my time on.
  • east somerville villain
    You don’t deserve my time
    I support the civilians of Gaza but to interview a political person advocating a ‘permanent cease fire’ without even asking about the hostages release is to show a bias that repulses me and should repulse Americans of all perspectives.
  • Loganfool
    Background noise
    I really like this podcast, but it often has background noise. The latest sounds like somebody’s doing dishes in the background and it’s so distracting. I can’t understand what’s going on.
  • Darren in LA
    Not much of a news show anymore
    95% of this show is now following all the Trump ongoings. This is no longer a general news program. And I’ve stopped following it.
  • OaklandReal
    Resist the Trump Tractor Beam, Alex!
    I appreciate this show and listen regularly, but recently noticed that the subject matter is devolving into hand-wringing freakouts over the ex-president's shenanigans. Please resist the popular liberal urge to let your content become narrow and pessimistic, Alex! There is so much more in the country & world which could be well-observed by your good analysis.
  • Maw45
    We love your show!!!
    I never thought to write a review until today. My husband has MSNBC on all day and I just can’t take a constant rehash by different commenters hour after hour. Yet, I will NOT miss your show. Your warmth, your intelligence, your way of presenting the news is refreshing. Thank you for an excellent hour of daily news.
  • Roe1987
    Great job, Alex!
    I’m a longtime Democrat and fan of the MSNBC lineup. Still, as a 37 year-old, we’ll-informed, queer Millennial I discover this to be the only show I pay attention to anymore. I discovered Alex on The Circus and quickly went back to read her work at The Atlantic. I was bummed she left The Circus, but thrilled she took over for Rachel Maddow. She’s perfect because like Rachel, she reads between the lines of the narrative older, “traditional” Democrats are framing. She doesn’t scold the younger Democratic base over progressive issues and common sense concerns. Her reporting is truly objective over what is currently dividing the voter base. She expresses concern over the Israeli government’s actions against innocent civilians. She doesn’t bring on a plethora of white guests to brainstorm how we can win the Black vote. HIGHLY recommend

    So long!!
    435 members of Congress but Wagner chooses antisemite/anti-Biden Jayapal for her Israeli war segment. Did MSNBC hire Chris Licht when no one was looking?
