Love the way you break down news even as an old person and not into celebrity gossip at least I have an idea now of who is doing what to whom. And the world is a crazy place and you are more balanced Jurnos than legacy media.

I love listening to this podcast. I love the blend of serious political chat amongst the pop culture.
Apple Podcasts5Rae2333Australia2 months ago - GREAT POPCAST (except for the Mitch churi ep)
I tried to listen to the Mitch Churi episode, but the way he comes straight on in and attacks call her daddy but then will be the first to say Australia has a tall poppy syndrome problem if roles were reversed.
However, I look forward to every episode!
