Customer Reviews
The Best Podcast on iTunes
NPR has many quality podcasts available on iTunes. This is, without question, the best one. The stories told are at times heart-warming, and sometimes heartbreaking, but they're always interesting, and the people telling them manage to be eloquent and unpretentious at the same time. This is the only podcast that I find myself waiting for eagerly every week.
Long Introduction For A Short Program
Since it is a relatively short program, I would like to listen to more than one story each time. However, it is very annoying that for only 30 minutes listening to this program, I have to listen to the same introduction 5 times! I wish it would be possible for the NPR to put every 5 to 10 stories in one package with only one introduction in each package. Other than that, it's a great program. Thank You NPR!
GREAT Podcast!!
This is a FANTASTIC podcast. I first heard the African American version called StoryCorps Griot on NPR's News and Notes and have sense heard this version on some of NPR's shows. I'm so happy it's a podcast. Listen and download them all.....it connects us all with the human experience!
