    Unparalleled access to politicians relevant to Scottish affairs, with the notable absence of the Greens!

  • Brings politics to life

    Get away from the bish bash bang of Holyrood trench warfare. The panel gives itself the time to get under the skin of the arguments and take the time to question their guests in depth and develop arguments more

  • Relentlessly clubbable

    Informative but frustratingly affable. In the latest episode, Stephen Gethins was allowed to discuss the Nick Boles brexit proposal without being challenged on the SNP having frustrated the Customs Union proposal by abstaining.

  • Informative and Unpretentious Political Listening

    A podcast I never thought I needed. A serious but easy listening podcast on Scottish politics - which I haven’t found yet. One of the best ways to understand the up-to-date politic landscape, with a good degree of debate and disagreement on big issues which adds to its effectiveness because it is not a ‘party political’ podcast masquareading as transparent. Keep up the good work
