  • Pat Is a Radio Legend

    Pat brings sharp analysis. Henry McKean does not. Henry needs to find a new career path as he is not a reporter. He’s more of a detraction than an addition and damages the PK brand.

  • Ads nightmare

    I really enjoy this show but the podcast segments are a disaster!! Recently, ads are thrown in - usually in the middle of a conversation (sometimes even a sentence). It’s so off putting. To make it worse the sound of the ads is far louder than the actual episode. Surely this can be sorted. It’s bad enough having to listen to the long ads at the start of each episode.

  • Good Show - Technically Amateur 😔

    I listen to that show for many years. Great interviewing! Great topics! Great information!

    However the technical implementation of the podcast is so amateur:

    1. Sound level is all over the place. Sometimes you can’t hear Pat and then suddenly again very loud

    2. Sometimes only ONE channel is with sound (hear only sound one one ear plug)

    3. Misplaced advertisements! They’re placed in the middle of a sentence- no other podcast is doing it 😠

    4. Too many advertising repeats if I listen to multi... more

  • Ivan Yates Wooly Waffle. No more long breaks for Pat.

    Ivan Yates-seriously?

    His wooly waffle has damaged the PK brand. Should go back to running a Betting Shop.

    Anton Savage would’ve been a far better choice for stand-in presenter. Someone needs to pay attention.
