From prisons to protests, immigration to the environment, Peabody Award-winning Reveal goes deep into the pressing issues of our times. The Atlantic says “the experience of each episode is akin to a spoonful of sugar, even when it’s telling a story about Richard Spencer’s cotton farms or a man’s final days as a heroin addict.” Reveal is a project of The Center for Investigative Reporting and is co-produced with PRX. The show is hosted by Al Letson and partners with reporters and newsrooms around the world, including The Washington Post, ProPublica, APM, The Marshall Project and The Investigative Fund. Reveal is a Pulitzer Prize finalist and has won many broadcast journalism awards, including a duPont and three national Emmys.
Interesting, intelligent and delivery is entertaining and informative.

GREAT journalism
In a world where all journalists seem to be lying to you, or consume the propaganda of the powerful, Reveal is a reminder that noble journalism still exists. The stories are varied, fascinating and well researched, each one the result of months of work. Thanks for showing that integrity still exists in journalism.

Left Wing Bias pollutes good podcast
Anything non-political/racial and this is a good podcast. When it comes to race and politics though, they are pathetically ultra left wing and verging on terrorist sympathisers.
In their skewed world, black = good, white = bad and people who dont take responsibility for their life choices = victims.

Informative, insightful and interesting
I really enjoy this podcast. Each episode takes an in depth look at a different topic. Sometimes a topic that has been in the headlines, other times an issue that I'd never heard about before. The reporting is thorough and engaging and the format is easy to listen to. You'd probably like this if you're a fan of serial - similar kind of investigative style.

If you don't like podcasts, you haven't listened to reveal
Amazing stories, independently researched and produced to perfection. The stories presented in this series are positively eye opening and the team isn't afraid to tackle sensitive topics. Please keep up the great work!

A fusion of great journalism and amazing radio
Really thorough and thought provoking reportage. At some point I will make notes on a few episodes to see if I can learn from their methods/narrative structure/approaches. Love it!

An interesting and intelligent, analysis of contemporary issues based on substantial research and critical journalism. A really refreshing take on USA society, news and politics.

Fascinating
I started walking to work instead of cycling just so I could get my daily but of Reveal. I am fascinated by all the issues it presents and am always hungry for more.

Addictive
Love Reveal.. great stories and wonderfully told. Great topics, eye openers, but still non judgemental. Gently allows the listener to make their own opinions.
The Watchtower episode was very insightful in an awfully sad way.
Started searching for PRX podcasts due to this and another 👍🏼
Keep up the good work guys!

Excellent production values but sometimes...
..it does not get the tone quite right. Some shows like ‘Ring of Fire’ are superb, balanced and right on target. Others don’t quite scale the same heights. Of course, that’s to be expected. Not every documentary investigation deserves a five-star. Real life intervenes and messes things up. But sometimes the tone of the presentation is a little off. The intro to the Pentagon Papers episode was too light, jokey, and more than a little off-putting. I’m glad I persevered because the main body of that episode was fascinating but why run the risk of deterring even one listener? Seems strange.
