  • Talking to ChatGPT drains energy. These other things are worse.
    Oct 6 2025

    A single Q&A session with a large language model can consume more than a half-liter of fresh water to cool servers. Asking ChatGPT one question reportedly consumes 10 times as much electricity as a conventional Google search. And generating an image is equivalent to charging a smartphone.

    Should we be worried about that?

    Climate advice columnist Michael J. Coren doesn’t think so – or, at least, we shouldn’t lose sleep over it.

    Today on “Post Reports,” he joins host Colby Itkowitz to dispel myths around AI’s energy consumption, explain how to use AI chatbots responsibly, and break down our other energy-intensive digital habits.

    Today’s show was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy. It was edited by Ted Muldoon and Reena Flores, and mixed by Sean Carter. Thanks to Marisa Bellack.

  • The Diddy Trial: Sean Combs’s 4-year sentence
    Oct 4 2025

    After a two-month trial this summer, Sean “Diddy” Combs was convicted of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution – but acquitted on sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy charges.

    Combs’s defense attorneys argued he should either get a new trial or be released in under two years, while the prosecution pushed for him to serve over a decade in prison. On Friday, the judge decided that he would spend 50 months in prison.

    Host Elahe Izadi speaks with style reporter Anne Branigin about Combs’s appeal to the judge and how he is already starting his rebrand.

    Today’s show was produced by Sabby Robinson and Peter Bresnan. It was edited by Reena Flores and mixed by Sean Carter.

    Oct 3 2025

    In a cold muddy pond in Cape Cod, a group of self-proclaimed “old ladies” dives for garbage — and unexpectedly finds joy.

I miss the Washington Post daily digest. It was discontinued because apparently it was decided that podcasts had made it irrelevant. Podcasts are no substitute in any way shape or form. Its like comparing apples and libraries.

But when the digest was discontinued I was forced to compromise with the post digest.

I like the hosts and they do a good job.

I wish they weren’t posted the day after.

The main issue I have is that the sibilance are near torture. They are so painful especially when wearing headphones which I assume is how most people listen. De-essing is a thing. Please do it. The guests are particularly bad for this, I assume because they are not professionals speaking into professional mics with pop filters at an appropriate distance.

The Sibilance are near torture. Please de-es your vocals.

I enjoy hearing in-depth reporting and hearing the story beyond the story reported in the paper.

Being a news-junkie, listening while preparing dinner is a real highlight to my day.

Great Insight

Every morning I knew I could catch up on what was going on in the country and the world AND get world class comments and opinions. Now… I get a short podcast on one subject. They are, in all honesty, well done. I just miss the news summary.

I miss the digest

Pretty lame substitute for what what once the full Washington Post digest.

Lacks breadth and ads are fairly annoying.

Sad substitute for digest

my library is full of these but they are transitory in value and context is unclear

why aren't these things clearly dated?
