Ratings and reviews

My husband is from the Netherlands and he listens to BNR in order to maintain his language skills and also to keep up with news from the Netherlands. I love listening to it because I am trying to improve my very rudimentary Dutch language skills. BNR announcers speak very clearly and I am able to understand a fair amount of what they say. The programming is excellent, both entertaining and informative. I like their print section because it is very helpful when trying to learn to read Dutch .

Update: for crying out loud, how hard can it be to remember and skip episodes that I've just listened to ?!? Content is great, but the app is too basic. It is confusing and it misses a number of hygiene feature (hint: skip episodes that I already have listened to); I highly recommend usability testing before release ;) update 2023: tried it again for 5 minutes: aaaargh... how about displaying info about podcast episodes ? SUCH AS THE DATE 😞

dramatic update. there is no search function anymore. in addition the app doesn't save where you stopped listening. so the next time you start the same episode you have to manually search for the right timestamp again... please update
