  • 5 Star Absolute Mince

    This show is like the mince your gran used to make you, full fat, packed full of lovely fresh root veg, with just that little hint of sherry & a big dollop of buttery mashed tatties. I’d call it absolute mince.

  • Pure SNP spin political nonsense

    This is the most biased podcast I have ever listened to. It’s billed as politics from a Scottish perspective but what Lesley really means, it’s a podcast of a Scottish Nationalist perspective. She never dares to call out the government sitting in Holyrood despite scandals and mismanagement of public funds. It’s a Westminster bad, SNP good mantra. Don’t waste your time if you want something unbiased and of quality journalism.

    Informative and desperately needed content for Scotland these days. The quality of your audio is not good though, would mean a lot if that could be improved.
