    Detailed but Trumpist
    Selective news stories focused on Trump and using a light version of his rhetoric. Trump focused, Trump normalizing, very biased and sneaky. I appreciate her long form detail but she is either pandering to her audience or genuinely Right biased.
  • SpiritJunkie
    She IS biased
    You can tell by her language she is a TRUMPER 😂😂😂🤔
  • Slayerofsoulss
    Love the new 5 minute recaps!
    It’s so nice to have a bite sized chunk of news with the option to go back to the full episode for full details if desired. Also, in general, this podcast really does feel unbiased which is a rarity in today’s world and I really appreciate how she takes the time to dig through all the rumors and give us just the facts.

    Great Unbiased Podcast
    Jordan does a fantastic job just delivering the FACTS of the news. She breaks things down, explains complicated issues, she confirms or debunks rumors & how they get started. She is one of the only news people I truly can’t tell who she actually voted for as she isn’t slanted one way or the other. I appreciate her views & delivery. Thanks Jordan!

    Not Unbiased
    The facts that you choose to leave out and the words that you choose show clear bias. I used to listen all the time but as the bias has become more clear it’s difficult to get through even these shortened episodes. You say the people who listen to your podcast think you are unbiased and it’s those who don’t who give you bad reviews (I guess on TikTok and IG) but reading these recent reviews shows I’m not alone.
  • J4urmind
    Happy to have found you
    I love that you give the facts and nothing else. With so much misinformation and biased reporting in the news how do we, the people, know what is fact and what is false. Thank you!! Sometimes I do get lost with the news and don’t understand it so i appreciate you for speaking so well. I love the quick news and the longs one but the quick ones best. Again appreciate you . Saw you at press conference today and you brought amazing questions. It’s cool that you were there.
  • Leec23
    Not for the snowflakes
    Completely unbiased reporting wether you like what you hear or not. If you just want to hear “your side” of things then this isn’t for you. You need to have an open mind and not just be filled with so much hatred for one side or the other that you refuse to hear actual facts. Personally I love it. Gives me facts plain and simple, then I can form my own opinions based on those facts not feelings.

    Please Keep The Under 5 Minute Option
    I love the full podcast, but let’s be real—I can't always carve out the time to listen to the entire episodes. The under 5-minute option is a total game-changer! It keeps me in the loop without missing a beat. Thank you!
  • Blovely24
    Love the 5 min format!
    I listened to the full 40 min episode and then the 5 min recap. It helped me synthesize everything that I listened to before. Maybe an application of the 5 min clips that you didn’t anticipate! I came here from tik tok btw. Thank you for doing this work! I’m sick of my head spinning from biased news headlines everyday.
  • BHfromIA
    Good podcast.
    I think the 5 minute episode is a great idea.
  • KF76a
    Love the Under-5 Min option!
    While I enjoy Jordan’s longer podcasts, this is a great way to get up to speed - or at least not fall behind - on a busy day! Would love you to keep these up, Jordan!
  • JMayor25
    Normalizing Lies
    Used to really love her analysis. Then several instances of reporting on this administration and she would quote their communications knowing validity was questionable at best. I appreciated her effort to dive deep into topics and provide background. Then she covered the tariffs… that line about not knowing greek letters. Didn’t jive with how she covers topics. I get remaining unbiased, but that doesn’t mean abandoning truth. Especially with a law background when covering the current state of political and legal environment.
  • Ladysusanbnp
    Keep it up!!
    Your podcast eases my anxiety for sure! Thank you so much for doing all the research and explaining the issues in terms that we can understand and also relate to previous administrations. My one comment would be that currently, the headlines that freak me out most are the ones where Trump signs an executive order targeting funds for programs at the Smithsonian because it doesn’t align with their ideology. And assigning Vance to remove improper ideology from the Smithsonian institution, including its museums, education and research centers and the national zoo. It seems like nobody is talking about this stuff. Or how about purging 26000 images of war heroes and military firsts from the defense departments database. These are the moves that are the most disturbing because it doesn’t have anything to do with the economy or global politics or normal administration goals. I would love it if you would expound on headlines like these.
  • Sumana N
    Thank goodness
    Awesome podcast. Jordan’s reporting from a legal perspective talks me off of the ledge with my frustration at getting to the impact of these seemingly chaotic and polarizing decisions and times. I may or may not agree with the current administration’s method but I can now discern the madness with just the facts please. Thanks Jordan!
  • MandeeFY
    Gave it a try
    I appreciate the intention and effort but I definitely don’t feel that this podcast is unbiased. In fact, I leave feeling like things are normalized that shouldn’t be. Sometimes there aren’t two equally valid sides to an argument. One is a perceived fact and just plain not accurate and the other is the truth.
  • Sblenda
    Meh
    I appreciate what she’s trying to do but the TikTok style delivery drives me nuts. Maybe consider a co-host to have a more conversational style of podcast - or just vary your tone a bit. I realize many people don’t want to be bothered with facts these days, but presenting blatant lies as “one side” has also made me unfollow. I know that’s tricky in this age of yelling lies until the followers believe or being accused of MSM sheep - but there are objective facts that could be presented as such. I will say the reporting on IDEA and 504 plans was done very well. Some of Trump’s EO reporting - not so much. I’ll pop in occasionally but there are better news podcasts. (The MSM is there because they’ve honed a craft, even though they have their significant problems too.)
  • *AMDG*
    Not unbiased
    She chooses to report certain stories that have a political lean, so even if the presentation of it is all “facts” it paints a very biased picture of what is happening in the country and the world. She ends some segments with “good news” which is a biased description in and of itself even if most can agree it’s good news. I find openly political leaning independent news sources much more transparent! This will NOT give a well rounded view of news.
  • anotherCST
    Not accurate
    Simply calling your podcast unbiased doesn’t make it so. This is an insult to people’s intelligence.
  • broken puddle pirate
    Thursday, March 5 review of the president
    Not sure you should use the term unbiased if you’re going to fact check the president of his address of Congress but you don’t fact check the Democrat response. Seems like you do you have a bais.
  • 3131boss
    Not unbiased but she tries
    I’ve listened to her for a long time. She claims to be unbiased and she does a much better job than MSM, but it’s not completely unbiased. There are times she’s stating facts, but she’s leaving out information or she presents a certain side of the narrative. I still listen from time to time but take it with a grain of salt. No such thing as unbiased. We all have our own bias to some degree.
  • JennR15
    Love this podcast!
    More people need to learn the difference between fact and opinion. Jordan does a great job sticking to facts or what is being reported. She also does a great job explaining complicated legal issues. I really appreciate her show and am going back and listening to her older episodes. They definitely help me understand these controversial events better. I want to know if she leans conservative or liberal personally… but I can’t tell! Which is definitely the point…
  • SheriH7800
    Doesn’t fact check
    I used to enjoy this podcast because it seemed to just give the facts. But, since Trump took office there have been occasions in which Trump’s lies have been restated as facts. Quick research can show that the info is false, so restating it as facts without a fact check is highly misleading. It’s very disappointing because I really used to enjoy the podcast. Sadly this is why podcasts shouldn’t be a source of news.
  • Esssjayyy
    This is dangerous
    Claiming to be unbiased but consistently only telling one sided versions of each story or more dangerous than any biased news platform. I am a long time listener and I have slowly heard Jordan become everything she claims to not be.
  • wildwoodcottontail
    Definitely biased
    Not always thoroughly researched (see 504 plan coverage), definitely biased (all Elon/trump coverage), and my biggest pet peeve - it’s affdavIT not affidavid. For someone who went to law school, that one is pretty bad.
  • Bailee23
    Unbiased not enough
    I came to leave a review as I’ve listened for a few weeks now and I’m continuing to listen as I appreciate both sides. Before leaving the review I looked at other reviews and can’t help but laugh. Here this girl is delivering facts and people are leaving low star reviews because they can tell she’s conservative? I was thinking she obviously leans pretty left which just goes to show she’s pretty unbiased. Or that both sides are so delusional that if you aren’t holding their picket signs and pitchforks they must be for the other side. Keep it up girl I am learning a lot and appreciate it all!
  • J Arod
    Sincere feedback
    I’ve listened to this podcast for a long time. Overall Jordan does a great job and in a world full of biased media she does a good job giving facts. I listen to her podcast for her point of view but I will say I would not take what she is saying as fully “unbiased.” I have noticed she goes into detail on some topics that are uncontroversial while quickly going over other topics that are very controversial. I would like to hear more background on these topics and understand both sides arguments rather than just stating a fact. I’m not sure if she does this on purpose or not but by not giving the full picture it sends inaccurate information. Truly I think Jordan is on the right path and is far better than most major news outlets that are rage bait. So I’m sincerely hoping this is taken as constructive feedback because I want to keep supporting.
  • BozieOzzie
    Definitely BIASED
    Anyone who listens to even one episode will realize either this person doesn’t have a clue what’s going on or they’re pretending to not understand the details. For example in the most recent episode, she discussed the Musk email asking federal workers to list 5 things they did that week and then at the end of the episode, she asked the listeners to think about how we would react if our boss asked us to list what we did that week. The whole point of the outrage about that email is that the workers boss was not the one who asked them what they did that week. It’s pretty evident she is trying to normalize what is going on in this administration. Don’t fall for the UNBIASED line. If you want to know both sides of a story, read news from both sides and see what makes the most sense to you.
  • SOPHIA KL
    :)
    This Podcast has helped me see things in a more objective way. First of all, Jordan explains very well the legal details and second, always provides context and history to whatever topic in on the table. It has taught me to see that nothing is black or white and most importantly to think critically. Not to see only how I feel about a specific issue, but what it really is, how can it really affect or help the country and most importantly to think about the opposite side of my own bias. I think I’m starting to accept that I don’t have to be always right or prove it to anyone, but also understand how others can have a point too. Love it!
  • Emily0834
    Straightforward, but not unbiased
    I appreciate Jordan’s calm, even tone when reporting the news. The straightforward nature of her speech is less overstimulating than other popular news sources. However, I wouldn’t say that this podcast is “unbiased” both because of the headlines that she chooses to present and the incomplete context that she provides within the stories. Not a bad podcast if you’re searching for a less emotionally driven take on conservative leaning news, but I wouldn’t say it is balanced or unbiased reporting.

  • Andy Burnette
    My Favorite Podcast!!
    I’ve been listening to Unbiased Politics for about a year, and it has become my go-to source for staying informed. With news stories breaking so quickly, it’s hard to fact-check everything—but this podcast cuts through the noise, delivering just the facts while separating truth from speculation. Jordan is deeply committed to accuracy and integrity, consistently providing high-quality, well-researched information. I especially respect that she holds herself accountable, making corrections when necessary. Her dedication to clarity and truth makes this podcast an invaluable resource, and I’m incredibly grateful for the work she puts into it.
  • cassb2010
    Wonderful breath of fresh air
    I finally feel close to an informed citizen. I’ve been basically ignoring news for several years now because I’m so sick of “news.” This podcast is factual, unbiased, and offers tremendous value for the time investment. We must #resist the one sided, fear lingering news agenda (from both sides). Thank you for creating this podcast!!
  • pegmarsh
    I don’t always like the facts but…..
    I appreciate the unbiased deliverance of those facts. I don’t know how Jordan can keep a straight face about some of the facts she has to deliver, but she does an excellent job of doing just that. This podcast keeps me sane especially after being bombarded on social media with so many outrageous pseudo-facts and knee-jerk reaction opinions. Thank you!
  • gisk01!
    Nothing is Unbiased
    I listened to help understand how conservative supporters frame and justify current events by de-emphasizing key impacts. A great example was the USAID discussion, there was little or no emphasis of its percentage of the budget, its effect on the deficit, or the millions of lives it impacts, both foreign and domestic. Or her reference that RFK Jr. did okay or didn’t do that bad in congressional interviews… that’s a bias opinion. Instead, she provides quotes and opinions from both sides, which just re-iterates bias with little real data or analysis. Despite frequently emphasizing her unbiased stance, true neutrality would mean constantly acknowledging her own biases and clarifying whether she leans conservative or liberal. She should team up with an analyst or economist that leans opposite of her (so they challenge each other on the topic) if she wanted to elevated the conversation and focus on the numbers and impacts so people can start forming their own opinions.

    Unbiased, Informative and Time Efficient
    Not only it is unbiased, it is also far more informative than any other news outlet I've ever heard. She is also efficient with her time, giving you everything you need to know in less than an hour.
  • marissa maldova
    The news isn’t all that scary!
    I stopped listening to national news due to the anxiety it brought me, no longer listening helped my mental health but I didn’t like feeling uninformed. This podcast keeps me updated and I’m never scared to listen to an episode. The news isn’t all that scary when you’re just getting facts.
  • Sixxnm
    Honesty Over Bias
    We can't help being biased, so I LOVE that you have the courage to report the news without bias even in your vocal inflection. It's Unbiased with no attitude whether you agree with the truth or not. Amazed by your courage to be honest, it's not easy to find an honest news source and even harder to BE that source. Thank you!
  • Cnpadron
    Just the news!
    I’ve never been a big fan of the news but in recent years I’ve felt skeptical that I’m hearing the real truth. I happened upon Jordan’s instagram and was delighted to hear the news without an agenda. I love the background she gives on the topics. It is fact based according to what the law states and what the constitution says. I’ve never looked forward to listening to the news but now Mondays and Thursdays are my favorite days! I’ve recommended her to my friends on both sides of the aisle.
  • Aslam Azad
    Less biased but not unbiased
    I appreciate the effort but it’s obvious that Jordan is conservative based on her frequent defense of Trump’s actions. Without blatantly stating that she supports him, she makes it obvious by overexplaining his controversial moves in a manner that sounds defensive.
  • yeffrey w
    All facts, no opinion
    Only two episodes in so far, but if you have people from both sides angry at you, means you’re doing something right. I think I’m so used to news people giving opinions after giving a few (probably biased) facts that it feels odd she doesn’t. But that’s exactly how it should be.
  • madditk
    The best news source out there
    This podcast has slowly started to change my view of politics for the better. Instead of refusing to hear biased and negative news and living under a rock, Jordan has given me a way to see things in a new light; neutral and informative! She truly is unbiased and knows her stuff. It s a joy to be learning important things through Jordan!
  • lco628
    My new source!
    Thank you Jordan for doing your research and promoting unbiased media! I wonder if the people that gave unfavorable reviews actually just don't like the facts that they are hearing. Jordan takes the emotion out of what she is reporting and provides context to the headlines. MSM only feeds headlines and hearsay with no context. Thanks again Jordan and keep up the good work!
  • kelseybkc
    So helpful!
    Just presents the facts. Helpful to keep up with all that is going on in the world right now and working to see both sides on issues.
  • lindskings
    Great way to get information
    I love listening to Jordan give nothing but facts. It’s so helpful to listen to Jordan in this age of constant media.
  • KellyEmmons
    A Beacon In The Night
    I cannot speak to the sentiment of the general population, but I personally have avoided politics like the plague for my entire adult life. This was not for lack of concern or strongly held opinions, but rather this was due to my belief that no matter where I turned, I was only ever served lies or bias to further an agenda. Both the right and the left are equally guilty. It felt like an impossible task to cut through the noise and uncover the truth. This changed 6 months ago when I stumbled across her podcast on instagram. Jordan has been a light in the darkness. Her legal explanation is invaluable to understanding the context of each situation. Her desire to present the facts on both sides and let each individual make up their own mind is refreshing and long overdue. I especially appreciate her “critical thinking” segment, which has allowed me to re-examine my beliefs. This exercise has either changed my mind or bolstered my position on a variety of topics, and is something we all should strive to do. In a time when it feels like we are more divided than ever, Jordan reminds us that we all have brains (and we should us them!), we all deserve the whole truth and nothing but the truth, and that there are two sides to every single story.
  • caraclysmic
    Unbiased, will ease your mind
    I have been wanting an unbiased news source since the first Trump presidency. This 2nd term I finally found Jordan and I have to say it has made my life a lot less stressful. Do I love all that’s happening no, but knowing the truth has been so relieving. Thank you for all you do!

    Really Calls Out How Bias the Big Media Is
    Been listening to Jordan for a good year now. As someone who is centered in politics I have always hated the media, to me their bias on both sides is ridiculously obvious and I hated listening to the news because of it. Jordan fact only, not trying to discredit stories with outside facts, legal analysis, and zero emotional attachment is exactly what unbiased news is. I see people really upset in her reviews and all that does is prove how bias people’s core beliefs are, truly getting upset over anything that is not 100% their belief and even putting in bad reviews because they don’t feel she gives the misleading facts to lean to their beliefs. I personally love her “rumor has it” and her debunking or clarifying the bigger stories that seem to always be extreme left or right and shining on light the stories. I also love learning how the legal system, check and balances, etc in her stories to understand the news and politics in a more educated sense of mind. If you have a truly open mind individual and want to think for yourself this is the place to get the facts with no emotional ties.
  • cdb1961
    Great daily highlights
    This is my favorite way to quickly keep up with the daily, often politicized by other outlets, news. Jordan succinctly and with virtually no bias reports ongoing events, making me much more able to discern news information that I later see or read. I also LOVE her “Critical Thinking” challenges. It’s an excellent idea of Jordan’s to be prompted to looks at an issue and become aware of my own biases. Lastly… the “Rumor Mill” segment is much appreciated. Jordan does the leg work so that I can be better armed to pay attention to or disregard trending “pop” rumors. And now really “lastly”… the information (well written and well read) often has basis in current or historical legal proceedings. Having this explained in layman’s terms really opens the window and lets the light in on many of todays fairly complex legal maneuvering. I am beyond glad to have found this podcast. (BTW … fentanyl is pronounced with “anyl” sounds like “a pill” , not like “a doll”. Most people pronounce like you did, but still…)
  • Elenak02
    Unbiased & encourages critical thinking
    It’s so hard to find news these days without a spin, and I really love how Jordan encourages her audience to think for themselves. 10/10 everyone should be listening to this
