  • Laziest style of journalism

    "I'll leave this on the screen a bit longer" is the most useless phrase one can hear when listening to a podcast. If you happen to have a video component, don't make a podcast with the same audio track.

  • Rawish Journalism

    Started strong; unbiased raw journalism. Now it’s become filtered to suit a conservative view. Which now include ridiculous ads.
