  • No more!

    Loved this show, looked forward to new episodes. The content was good. (The host’s voice is snobby but it was charming somehow, like nerdy snobby.) more

  • Bad political takes

    Truly amazing how this podcast can be both so mediocre in quality AND on the side of genocidal powers in multiple simultaneous conflicts around the globe

  • Editors exist

    This show desperately needs an editor. These episodes would be half as long if they cut all of the filler words and stumbling- not just from the guests, but from the host (who really should be better at this by now)

  • Pretty terrible

    I tried to listen because the topics sounded interesting but just had to stop at ten minutes. So poorly done-disappointed.

  • Poor interviewing

    I listened to the episode with Cathy Erway about her recent book on Taiwan, because I was interested in hearing about her new book. However, I found the interviewer so unbearable that I could not finish the episode. The interviewer continually interrupted, made unrelated comments, and went off on tangents. It seemed like the interviewer hadn’t done the homework of reading the book or writing interesting questions in the interest of facilitating conversation.
