Fantastic, lively and informative. One of my favourite podcasts to listen to.
This is like listening to an political science undergrad reading their papers aloud. There is no debate, and it is over-structured. It’s a shame.
I really enjoyed listening to this interesting and engaging first episode of Debated. I hope you guys make more because it is really different to any other political podcast I've ever listened to!

Debated features in-depth conversations with a mix of politicians, academics, journalists, and culture writers, focusing on UK political strategy, party dynamics, and policy outcomes. Episodes frequently explore regional inequality, Labour internal politics, public services, and the interplay between media and politics, often with data-driven or historical perspectives. Noteworthy is the willingness to host cross-ideological guests and to connect contemporary issues to historical or theoretical contexts, making it valuable for listeners who want nuanced, evidence-based discussion about current British politics and its broader cultural implications.
