  • No point listening anymore

    Use to love this podcast back in the day then 2020 hit and they chose there side which was the wrong side supporting forced juice forced lockdowns . Fast forward to now and the programme is pointless . Fake topics fake emails all written the same , They champion and support all the wrong things and if u disagree u get blocked off the socials . The show would benefit from ditching Jeremy he’s one of those who knows more and more about less and less

    I really like the show. Listen to a lot of podcasts. Rarely review them but would often read reviews. I was surprised at the bad reviews, attacking Katie and think they’re unfair and herself and the two lads do a good job and topics are always relevant and interesting
