The indicator on NPR is one of my favorite podcasts, and doesn't play the outrage games.


And Berliner apparently helped to start planet money, which indicator is a spin off of. That’s almost the sum total of real news that’s still available at npr :(


They have an editorial bent but they still get facts right. Not to mention the invaluable local news that is miles above most other local coverage.


Oh, bullshit. Marketplace is also a great podcast.


Maybe pedantic, but Marketplace is produced by American Public Media[1], not National Public Radio, though you hear it on NPR affiliate stations.

Oh my - that’s a really good point, and I should know better. It’s not like those distinctions don’t come up all the time when taking about public radio.
