PA_AnnaDisappointedI’m a long time fan, but have been disappointed with the new host. To often question seems like a monologue-and unlike the conversations Gwen and Robert had on a Friday afternoon with their guests. Wish I still loved it.

541redBetter and Bestuss. Ever“I’m gonna read the whole thing, and it’s long. We might have to preempt Antiques Roadshow for this, but it’s worth it,” - god bless Jeffrey Goldberg. lol

Looking for an Honest ManThis is a DON’T MISS pod.I don’t give out 5 stars unless you earn it, and this pod does! I especially appreciate that you don’t have pundits and campaigns on the show. Jeff is an excellent host with just the right amount of levity and sarcasm mixed into the solid reporting. This is not only the best pod today, but maybe the best all time. Thanks!

BostonIrishRulesGoldberg RocksI am now re-addicted to Washington Week. The light, informed and collegial tone set by Mr Goldberg makes this national governmental nightmare less of a trauma and more about facts. Plus he has constructed his entire set at home in the garage. Can’t beat that! Thank you Atlantic, for keeping this gem on the air for sane people who want to remain so.

Niuncentav0Endless idle speculation.Jeffrey Goldberg summed it up perfectly. Once informative Washington Week has turned into “endless idle speculation.”

DinoF16You lost me…I’m still searching for a balanced weekly show. Unfortunately, this is not it. Ever since the Atlantic came on board, it has been driven further and further left. Which I don’t mind I guess except it still claims to be bounced. I’ll keep searching…

haunting jelloGreat evolution of the show wThe Atlantic crewI miss Robert Costa. But the new evolution of the WW show led by The Atlantic is great. Informative, and the host has perfect timing for a tongue in cheek comment.

Ricky TenderkissHaven’t missed a show in over a decadeI miss Gwen Ifill desperately, but I also like Jeffrey Goldberg just fine, and in truth I’ve been watching since Paul Duke hosted — when I was a young adolescent, avidly following politics while dabbling in homework assignments — so I’ve seen a lot of change. But your journalism has consistently been top-tier, and I’ve probably not missed an episode since the mid-2000s … what a lot of change. But you remain consistent. I appreciate a discussion show between informed journalists which is nonpartisan, and in which — increasingly a rarity today — there is no yelling! Journalism for thinking people indeed. Thank you!

Zachary FiskThumbs up!I think Jeffrey Goldberg is a fine choice as moderator … I really enjoy him on WW.
-
Avgjoe77Moderator downplaying civilian deaths in GazaI used to love this program, but I’m feeling put off by the moderator’s introduction to this conflict in the Middle East. A focus on the atrocities in Israel is warranted, but to not also find some way to recognize the suffering in Gaza and in the West Bank is inexcusable and dehumanizing. I’ll check back in when there is a new moderator.

greenmotionJeffrey GoldbergGreat new moderator leading this show! Jeffrey Goldberg reminds me of Gwen, he gets the best out of the reporters at the table and does so with humor. When this show works, it’s more than just reporters saying the same thing you’ve heard all week, you get to hear inside views and gossip as though you’re in the news room.

SnydpieceLove Jeffrey GoldbergSo pleased that Mr. Goldberg is taking the reins. Home run choice.
-
NotachanceinhelPlease upload the WW extra as well please.Gonna hold the last star hostage until you do
-
T'snickMissing!I’m missing the podcast. 1st the extra disappeared and ithe main show hasn’t been updated since December 2. What’s happened?
-
someonewhoistiredofotherloginsPodcast issuesI wish the podcast version would play the extra after the main story and it’s often several days before the Friday edition shows up.

adv2k169Love it but it’s so frustrating to listen toFirst of all I have been listening for over 10 years. I really love the insights that the reports give on current policial events. Sounds , good and is a good length . Bad - Recently they have breaking up the podcasts for no reason. They used to have two weekly episodes (main show, and extra) . It was fairly clear that you needed to listen to the extra after and you got a bonus for listening instead of watching the show - cool. Now they have ONE weekly episode that they upload 3 times. One of the uploads is the full show and the other two are segments of the main show separated out. It’s asinine to do this for a 20 episode. If it’s 3 hour episode and you want to have two teasers then fine , but this was makes tedious to listen to . They just stared naming it but still no more extra but the illusion of two extra podcasts that aren’t real. It’s just tedious. I don’t need teaser segments in the podcast feed that is just pointless. Please fix it . If this cut out this crap I’ll give it 5 stars

RCJIIBiasedIs moderator a journalist or a pundit! Since the ascension of the latest moderator the perspective seems to be Democrat/progressive is right & good, accepted a face value, while Republican/conservative is wrong & bad, ascribed mal-intent…I expect better of this long-running, historically & culturally significant program…Fiat Justicia Ruat Coelum...
-
eztwo“Unplayable” episodesFYI: I don’t know if you are aware of this but all of the iterations (the main show; the follow-up; and audio and video versions) of your show show up as [not able to be played.] Not sure how long this has been true for me but I would say at least four weeks.
-
BillsR01Just the facts pleaseI appreciate the eulogy for George Floyd and the focus in the positive. However, he fought the police and encountered an angry police man who knew him.
-
lemc21Turn up the volumeI’ve always enjoyed watching Washington Week and listened to the podcast if I missed it Friday night. Suddenly, I couldn’t understand the podcast anymore unless I turned my 126 watt car stereo up to 90%. It’s like the host and the guest are all talking under water with socks in their mouths. The tv broadcast is ok and the podcast used to be listenable, I just don’t understand how this stellar program could be produced so poorly. I’ve deleted from my downloads.

Debbie in AZInfrastructure podcast 11/12/21Please post the correct podcast, not two about the trials.

Fao1999Great podcast but please fix audio issuesFor some reason the max volume of this podcast is the lowest in my iOS podcast app. Please increase the max volume to match other podcasts
-
KleiniasWow it’s super left-wingI used to listen to this when the moderator was Robert Costa. It’s PBS so it was looking at things from a more liberal perspective but it was substantive and even nuanced at times. Now there is a new moderator and wow what happened? This has become so left-wing that I’m not even sure what it’s doing on PBS. It’s MSNBC on steroids… seriously what is going on over there?
-
KungFooButchToo LeftI stopped watching this as it’s gotten too left leaning with Yamiche.
-
Moses T.K.Yamiche is great! (and please update the feed)While I enjoyed Robert Costa, I think Yamiche Alcindor is a great replacement. Love this show and listen to this as a podcast every week. The feed hasn’t been updated the last two weeks. I hope PBS will continue to offer it here as a podcast. Thanks.
-
Class of 80Too far leftI have watched and listened to this program for decades. With the new moderator, it has lost all pretense of balance. I miss Gwen Ifill. Goodbye until changes are made.
-
megskateThis is taxpayer funded?Changed moderators this week, permanently. PBS has decided that taxpayer dollars are Democrat dollars. The discussion has been very left leaning for years, but now it's overt. Sad. Wish I had a way to get a taxpayer refund on this. The discussion is a rehash of Trump instead of looking at oh ... unemployment rates, current news, the China threat, the CDC's overly strict guidelines ... this might have been relevant in January; isn't now.
-
stuckinthepatchSeriouslyI used to watch this show regularly but it has gone downhill and down the bias train to irrelevancy.

Money $teveGreat Show!This is a very good show and while it is produced for television it’s format serves its radio constituency very well. I would t change a thing. I particularly like the book review segment after the main show. I would welcome longer book reviews and more of them. You may even consider spinning this off as a separate show with a separate host. “The Washington Week Book Review”... A note for the producers... My only complaint is that guest hosts seem to be very low quality since none of them are professional broadcasters. April 23, 2021 is the best example yet of this lapse in quality. On weeks when you must use a guest host, I think it would be best to use a trained broadcaster even if they lack the shoe leather journalism credentials.

bretttyClaudiaAmy Walter is great!
-
isailhappySound level lowI struggle every week to hear this podcast even with my system turned up all the way. Sound baseline is dramatically lower than other podcasts
-
NW Paws PappaAmy WalterShe’s a great guest moderator and hopefully will get the position permanently. So smart and objective!
-
Teakwood2Audio problemsThe audio from one panelist continued to be difficult to make out so we stopped listening.
-
Ginagina SmithBest of luckon the book: you will be missed!
-
Ralph SmithersShove that slider up!Great podcast, but why does the sound level have to be so low? It’s really annoying to have to turn the volume on my devices all the way up to listen and then get blasted and have to dive to get it and turn it down when the next podcast starts!
-
Road_WorkParty over countryGood show. Sorry to hear James Baker is more GOP than for America.
-
BexterjohnNINA T. and RBG Dynamic DuoThanks greatly to Nina T. for all your writing and broadcasting about our beloved RBG.
-
Voyager 75Great & Convenient but Make it Louder!I find this a reat way to keep on top of the information at my convenience. Two suggestions for the producers: (1) For goodness sakes, boost the volume of the show on the podcast. It comes in well below the maximum possible volume for other podcasts to which I subscribe. (2) don’t waste the short valuable time on the Extra segment by reintroducing the panelists. Otherwise, it’s great. I enjoy it every week.
-
MinExMikeWashington WeekThe only program I watch regularly. One grip - why not a ‘full’ half hour ? Also is Washington Week offered as a radio broadcast. If so please. Let me know. Thanks
-
annereinsEssential weekly look at politicsIf you’re a political junkie, you will love this thoughtful discussion each week to make sense of the headlines.
-
JudyPaoniaLong time WWeek viewer.. podcast greatI have watched through MacNeil Lehr, all through loss of Gwenn Ifill but so happy with final choice Robert Costa...Now I can subscribe as well as wait for my Friday night fix.. reasoned, rational, civilized, knowledgeable, diverse. Thank you.

youareangeringmeMolly Ball and NancyI love your show, but the interview with Molly Ball was especially nice. She is a great journalist and Pelosi is always interesting. So are you, Bob. FloKelleher
-
Galena NightfirePlease Stop Imitating Fox!During the “preview” of the show’s main topics, the overly dramatic “headlines” sound way too much like Fox News. Mr Costa, please just state the topics to be covered in a normal tone. Thanks!
-
Cali Atty.VolumePlease turn the volume up. At full blast I still struggle to hear everything. It’s consistent, constant, issue. Love the program!
-
holykhakisSolid week to weekNo drama here, just the facts.

Ipaduser246Best Weekly Political ShowOutstanding panelists and contributors. RIP Gwen 💛💛
-
McDonnahere's to intelligent conversationI thoroughly enjoy hearing the reporters around the table discuss the news, and Gwen Ifill leads them with intelligence and zest. I miss Gwen! But Costa does a good job. I never miss it. Couldn't believe I've been listening at least since 2010. (initially reviewed in 2010, updated in 2019)

Bob Smith againWashington Week guests hate Trump!Washington Week are just more liberal media who hate Trump, and try to pretend to be impartial. I would like to think they are acting subconsciously with their hatred of Trump and conservatives, but the results are the same.
