    Take Two is a wonderful local news program. I love your music choices between stories. It’s the best on KPCC!👏👏👏
  • stevty
    Great show for the morning or day
    The stories and reporting on the show are great. If you live in the Los Angeles area or in California in general, this is good for your daily news and topics. I get to work at 9:30 and this podcast/ show allows me to catch up when I drive home. They post the show a little after noon and are now very consistent. A. Martinez knows his dodgers talk and lake show news and every Friday they’ll let you know what’s going on in L.A. for the weekend.

    Infrequently Updated
    Show is daily, but podcast is seemingly randomly updated, with gaps of days or even weeks. Only 2 episodes so far in January.
