Default water/air leaking

OK so, I have a 2004 4 door blazer, both front doors are having problems. The driver side front door leaks water along the top edge of the door, specifically where the door starts to curve down to the body. Its dripping onto my window controls. On the front passenger side, I'm getting A LOT of "wind" sounds, to the point where the people in the car have to raise their voices to hear eachother. plz help me fix thanks.

look at your doors as you close them slowly, when they meet the frame can you see them move upward as you latch them?
most likely your door hinge pins need to be replaced.
the job is fairly easy and cheap. i think there is a how to floating around here or in the google-verse.

+1 on the door pins. That's exactly what mine were doing. They would leak along the front angle of the door, and drip on the window switches when it rained. Door pins fixed that right up.

Just in case it isn't door pins, you should check the weather stripping in that area too. Look for rips or places where it's rubbed through.
