  • Used to enjoy

    I used to enjoy this podcast until I learned about the subtle influence of certain foreign propaganda (and using a trusted brand!!). I observed how often this BBC Podcast **uses vocabulary to promote** Trump, MAGA, and the white Christian nationalist ideals trying to ruin America, while professing to be “honest” Brits. Yikes.

    Unfortunately in the run up to the 2024 election, Americast has become unlistenable. The both sideism is at this point laughable and irresponsible. Plus the presenters talk as if the podcast is political commentary at a remedial level. Issues are simplified and dumbed down and the explainers are not even current. There are other podcasts that examine American politics in a much more analytical way which don’t patronize the listener. Give this a miss.
