Each week I wait for an episode to drop which just keep getting better and better. Dr. Maria, what an informed, balanced, well researched superstar expert you are !
Why have Frank on the show if you’re going to talk non stop between yourselves. Disappointing. Come on put your egos aside and let your esteemed guest have a few minutes.
A left wing echo chamber. If you voted to the greens, and want to hear your opinion back, go ahead.
I really enjoyed hearing Jill Shepherd on the show this week while Mark Kenny is away. Can I suggest she should be on more often please? Easy conversational voice to listen to. 👍👍👍👍👍
Does listening to Marija and Jill’s “tea room conversation” make for a great podcast ?
