    Sad to see it go
    Great show - I listen every weekday morning. Gutted its being discontinued.

    Highly recommended!
    I love this podcast and Dan Damon and his team. They are informative, to the point, highly educated and relevant. I have been listening to this podcast multiple times per week for over a year now and I wouldn't want to miss it. Thank you!

    No better morning program
    Turn off the local tv, if you're in the US this is you're world news and human interest fix.
  • Ginnyfeet
    I listen daily in the U.S.
    This is a great morning podcast for getting a brief overview of world news and some more in-depth reports on the big news of the present. I love it!

    I can't listen to the weekend extra episode for couple of weeks now. I'd like you to fix it as soon as possible.because I can't listen to it.

    A very good news podcast
    Dan Damon is the host of BBC World Update. I have been a regular listener for more than 3 years now, and I am totally hooked. This is one of the best news podcasts with both news as well as some fun items thrown into the mix. Highly recommended.

    Updates?
    I used to listen to this show every day, but recently it has stopped updating in a timely manner. Many times it is more than 24 hours late. When I contacted support, they said they were working on it. It’s been late for almost a month. I expect better from the BBC. Please fix it.

    Where is it?
    They are not being posted in time. Whats the deal?

    Enough Already!
    I know I missed my chance on the survey, but I'm not a fan of the new extended interviews about special interest items. It's nice to hear about the English dairy farmer in France; but I need a 10 minute interview about cheese as much as I need 5 minutes on the phone with a modeling agency in South Africa. I think a good rule would be: As soon as a telephone interview uses the same words to answer more than one question, cut the interview off! Otherwise, this is the best way to get the news. Dan Damon is great! His no holds barred interview style no matter how controversial the topic is what keeps me listening.

    Unbiased reliable world news...
    Unbiased reliable world news, what a dream come true. Keep up the good job and thank you.

    Great, but late
    This is a very informative and engaging podcast. It's a pity Ihave to listen to it a day late because it's not posted in time for my commute. Keep up the quality reporting and analysis, please improve the timeliness of posting.

    Required Listening
    If you want to stay informed, you should listen to this daily.

    Great news, but not for the morning commute
    This was my favorite podcast every morning, until about two weeks ago- when it suddenly stopped being updated in time for the morning commute in the USA. The description used to say that it was available by 5:30 U.S. East Coast time. I see today that it's now advertising 7am U.S. East Coast time. Unfortunately, it's noon right now, and (as has been the case since roughly the start of the new year) it's still not posted. I'm going to look elsewhere for current news in the mornings.

    Great but very late
    This is a really good podcast, but for the past week or two it's just not available to download directly to my phone when I'm on my actual commute. It's now 10:46 AM and I still don't see today's edition when I try to download directly on my phone.
  • kellyNYC
    Why so late?
    It is available very early ET via ITunes but much later when downloading directly from iPhone. This doesn't work for me. Who has time for the sync with cable before going to work?
  • Alorum
    Great broadcast
    Last week you had it out on time and same day. This morning I am waiting and have heard Fridays.

    Today's News for Today's Commute

    Good podcast. Only wish is that it is available for the morning commute. Love the quality of this podcast
  • shecyphers
    Excellent
    Great summary of events in thirty minutes. Only complaint: Podcast doesn't get updated in the morning, so it's more of an update for the afternoon commute.
  • Guemes
    Great
    Love this. It is an easy update on world events. It is quick download for everyday listening.
  • MartinMOwen

  • Firegalaxy

    Half of a Great Show
    World Update in the Morning is a staple for my listening ( as is the World Service when I can), and just like I wish I had Aleister Cooke in Podcast, I wish I had the whole show. World Update is comprehensive, thorough, and the best of the best bring the details of the story right to me, from the Tasmanian mentions ( my home State) to the full coverage of the US and the world, World update does in an hour what some shows can never do. I even got a mention of my favorite band today, so Thanks Dan !! I hope you see this, you are a past Master of excellent radio. Make it an hour please !! But a half is still good ...
