It’s toxic racist and anti s... more
What a shame Roger Bolton has gone...
Out of their comfort zone very tedious with often rather singular participants. Would prefer more views on radio generally rather than wasting space on this irritating feature.
This would be a useful programme if anyone from BBC management ever turned up to answer questions.
I have recently started to listen to Times radio for my morning news and it’s an improvement on the Today programme. There is an additional benefit of no continuity announcers with their wacky accents and no interminable adverts for BBC sounds. In the meantime I have unsubscribes from this podcast.
Nothing up to date on these reviews. I’m not surprised, just pressed unsubscribe button myself. Nearly 40 seconds of snippets that you’re going to hear in a moment as an intro. Members of the public ‘out of their comfort zone’, but they’re not really. Nothing of interest at all.

A lively forum focused on media, journalism, and public discourse, with frequent forays into editorial decision-making, censorship, and how broadcasting shapes public conversations. Episodes regularly feature debates about language on air, coverage of international crises, and the balance between entertainment and informative reporting, often pairing reviews of BBC programming with listener feedback. Noteworthy is the mix of veteran media staff, public figures, and occasional comedians or authors, which keeps conversations accessible while touching on industry pressures, trust in media, and evolving listenership in the digital age.
