Great show but Stitcher isn't refreshing it!
Stitcher, will you please update the BBC podcasts? None of them are refreshing.

Great world round-up in less than 30 minutes
I love this pod case because it provides a different perspective on the world views we hear every day in the US. In 30 minutes I can get a quick summary of what's important in the world from the European side of the world.

Unbiased News
I have cancelled my cable TV, so I rely on the World Update to get my international news. I like that it is unbiased and provides interviews with people "on the ground" and experts so that I can get a better understanding of world events. There aren't many outlets here in the United States that provide news that isn't partisan. Thank you.

Listen EVERY Morning
I listen to BBW World Update: Daily Commute every single morning on my commute to work. Fantastic show and presents a wide variety of international news. It's great to get a take on things from outside of the US-perspective. Dan Damon is brilliant and one of the best hosts I have ever heard. Truly a well-versed guy. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED SHOW.

The best way to start the day
Dan Damon is witty, intelligent, and the content of the show is almost always a fine
mix of interesting topics from around the globe. The other BBC reporters on the show do a fine job as well. I try to listen to World Update first thing every morning.

A must listen everyday
I enjoy this news for many reasons. First, it covers the world events that the American media avoids. Hard questions are asked. I feel like I understand the world events a bit better after hearing the different viewpoints.

BBC at its best.
Daily Commute is a great show to catch up on all the world news in the short time frame between coffee and getting the kids out the door. Succinct and to the point. The Beeb as it should be.

Great show
BBC is the most professional news channel I have ever seen. There are never any trash news. Their quality of news reading and the language makes them stand apart from the rest.
