A great show that is hampered by the system in which it is projected on. What concerns me is the inconsistency of the posting of videos. Not only do videos appear almost erratically but some episodes are missing all together or out of order. It appears to google play as almost an afterthought in trying to have viewers access content. This process undercuts the nature of a weekly news in review show as many of the topics discussed have already passed making much of the speculation to be irrelevant to the viewer as they already know how the event plays out.

Great show but not via Google Play. More like Last Month Whenever. It's already tough justifying the purchase of a season pass to a current events show that's at best a week stale on Google Play but they're currently almost a month behind and it's usually a few weeks late. Will try out other platforms.

Excellent show, don't but it from Google. Like the other reviews say, the uploads here are sporadic and delayed, it's always disappointing to watch a show like this 3-4 weeks after it aired. The show titles make no sense, they're not the airing dates, and don't like up with the official numbering either.
