That’s So Cincinnati’s local focus as well as the collection of interesting local interviewees including business leader and politicians makes it a nice weekly listen and offers a lot of potential. Updates on the events around the city as well as local political commentary from the hosts is interesting and provides value to the listener. Unfortunately given that this is the Cincinnati Enquirer’s main news podcast, it is disappointing that the questions for major Cincinnati stakeholder guests such as local congresspeople, major business leaders, and political party leaders remains shallow and congenial in place of critical, hard-hitting questions that Cincinnatians deserve from a premier Cincinnati news publication. I’ll continue to listen but would love to see these leaders who have large impacts on our city to be pressed further.

A good podcast for those who love to go deeper than a sound bite or headline on key newsmakers that make Cincinnati the great and diverse city that it is. Appreciate learning the back stories in the guests’ own words. This content doesn’t typically make it into news articles. Keep on bringing in great guests.

The best episodes are the ones without Jason in them.

Keeps you current with local politics and business trends, but at its core a very establishment perspective with disturbing flares of ultraconservative vitriol, such as allowing the city prosecutor free reign to rant in gory detail about a black on white murder from the 90s. This was the kind of recitation that gratuitously forces a victim’s family to relive trauma (far more so than having the case relitigated). Show would do well to balance its right-leaning slant with other perspectives and issues.

Some episodes are ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, especially when they go deep on local politics and issues. However, most episodes are just meh. They do not really challenge guests and they tend to ask softball questions and that is what is so a Cincinnati about this podcast. They also beat dead horses. I cannot listen to another string of episodes about they litter problem. The updates are too incremental.

Jason & Co have interviewed some really interesting people in our City and State; Joe Deters and Jeff Ruby were two of my favorites. But too often when they interview politicians or public officials about ballot issues, the line of questioning is very soft. No hard questions are asked. It’s frustrating because the format is good and the interviewers are super-connected and knowledgeable about our City and city politics.

Even if you’re not super into politics, this has great behind-the-scenes info on what’s going on in Cincy.

An outstanding podcast that is both informative and fun! Listening to this podcast is a fantastic way to stay up-to-date on all things Cincy. From sports, to politics, to drama, to entertainment, and everything in-between; this podcast discusses everything pertinent to the region.

This is a great podcast where public officials such as Brad Wenstrup are allowed to show their humanity without politicizing the discussion. As a Cincy lifer I am glad this podcast is available to focus on local interest which hits home in our lives moreso than the national news that is constantly crammed down our throats. Local personalities have the power to impact us where the rubber meets the road so this is a vital resource to all of us who seek to be better citizens. The hosts are eminently entertaining, caring and sensitive on all issues. As a 1985 Ohio State Journalism grad I am heartened to know there are young folks of this caliber entering the profession.

Well organized, informative, with interesting and knowledgeable guests - makes the time fly by when listening on a long drive. Well organized - broken into different parts with the guest in the middle, and the always funny / nod your head in agreement ‘that’s so Cincinnati’ moment of the week Informative - Jason (politics expert) and Paul (Bengals) have their feet on the pulses of city hall / local happenings. Guests - always very interesting and knowledgeable ranging in topics from local dining / food, to politics. Cover a whole range.

Often quite informative, especially during the election. But the consistent refrain in favor of an FC Cincinnati stadium, costs and consequences be damned, gets old. Please at least try to get all sides on an issue if you cover it this often.

This podcast would benefit from more singing

Love listening to the fellas talk rationally about important local issues. Keep up the great work!

These guys make current Cincinnati topics entertaining and informative. Looking forward to more!

Good hosts, insider info on Cincy news
