The new team of Oscar Edmondson, Michael Simmons and Norah Hoffman is awful. Not worth listening to. Norah sounds terrible. How the daily podcast has fallen.
Sadly Tim Shipman has slipped very quickly into the role of the radio presenter who is too powerful to be produced. Somebody needs to tell him to shut up and listen to the guests. I really rate Tim as a writer. He is a great political editor for the magazine, but he is a terrible podcast host — and only slightly better as a guest.

Has gone downhill pretty rapidly since the old guard left
Tim Shipman is a poor podcaster. He invites ppl on the show to listen to his voice as opposed to getting their views..
