He sends great messages that everyone should hear. All we can do about this crazy world is listen to people like Ben and adapt accordingly. Being the normal person that I am, it is truly inspirational to hear the things he is saying. I love the assertiveness. I love the confidence. This man possesses a great mind… He is captivating! ### 1/5 — Not working *2022-07-18, version 20220120* I am not allowed in the app. I can’t access or click on anything 🤔🤔 ### 5/5 — Extremely smart! *2022-06-17* I love how Ben can win any debate with facts. So intelligent and I love how fast he talks! Awesome morals! Ben for President ❤️ ### 5/5 — The intelligent and insightful information is extremely useful! *2021-07-01* Ben makes my day informed and enjoyable Dailey… ### 3/5 — Sound *2021-05-15* Sound quality is to low. ### 4/5 — Great app *2021-04-10* I have been listening to some of my favorite podcasts through this app, and have thoroughly enjoyed its function. Unfortunately and lately it has been glitching. When I pause a podcast, it freezes up when I try to restart it. Other times the app will restart or shut off in the middle of a podcast. In the past, I could close the app, reopen it the next day, and continue listening to a podcast where I left off the previous day. Now, when it glitches I have to restart the podcast from the beginning and scroll through to find where I left off, or if I close the app on my own, it does not save my listening time from the previous day. That was a great feature. Not sure what is happening to the app currently, but it has been glitching and shutting off almost on a daily basis. ### 5/5 — Amazing mix of voices *2021-03-16* I love how these podcasts make it easier for me to keep up with events during my profoundly busy schedule! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2021-01-28* Thanks for your site. Great choices and reliable 😃🇺🇸🇺🇸 ### 5/5 — Ben Cast *2020-12-18* Excellent aggregator of conservative thought leaders! A great alternative to Apple’s usual attempt at liberal brainwashing. A well executed app! ### 5/5 — This man is the best *2020-12-13* Smart generally upbeat nice quips once in a while not too long perfect for the ride home.
