I’m British and I love this show
I love how concise and fair this show is at covering multiple events for the day in just 15mins. Really helps me when I don’t fancy listening to longer podcast out there if I don’t have enough time.

An excellent overview of the previous day
I listen to both Up First and The Daily from the NY Times and while The Daily tends to give an in depth view into a topic in American politics, Up First gives a more general overview of the news. It includes US news but also world news including the UK the Middle East. An excellent way to keep up to date with what's going on in the world.

Unprofessional
Hosts are unprofessional. Their behaviour doesn't reflect the international audience they present to.

Just Right
As an expat trying to keep up with the news, this podcast is just what was missing in my life. I love the quick, informed highlights. They help me feel in touch when life's too busy for an hour long news podcast.
