    Thank you for bringing some kindness, positivity and hope to politics when it’s felt so dark for a long time! Sharing the truths that are ignored by mainstream media and politics at the moment, and debunking the nonsense that is prevalent on so many subjects. Keep it coming!

  • Should just call the show the far-left podcast.

    Only swivel eyed far-left knuckle draggers listen to this drivel.

  • Talking Sense

    Polanski is new to my radar, but what I’m hearing from him is great. He seems to have a great take on politics, and also has a very honest feel about him. The chat on these podcasts is thoughtful, intelligent and he’s a great listener. For someone in politics to really listen, take on board what he’s hearing and speak about it an a calm, considered way is very refreshing. I’m feeling my first Green vote coming on if this continues!

  • Looking forward to more

    Really insightful whilst easy to follow and understand. Accessible for most education levels, though a small introduction on the guest would be great, and maybe some information on how your policies align / don’t align with the topic of conversation.
