  • Fantastic story teller

    Aslan’s voice is like looking into a camp fire or out to sea, very soothing. He’s a fantastic story teller and cuts through sensationalism well. Folk like him make me proud to be an Australian and content like this is refreshing from the ABC

    There’s Indian and Pakistani bias in these podcast when you’ve Indians and Pakistanis working in it. Some of the stories clearly shows that bias and their presenter knows it too.

    Massoud was a warlord that killed innocent Afghans and this pakistani is making him ought to a saint or clairvoyant just because he got lucky in his prediction.

  • Annoying narrator

    This guy is not made for radio. I don’t think I have ever stopped listening to something from ABC because of the story teller. If this is the future of podcast that is paid from our tax dollars ABC will cease to matter very quickly.
