  • Poor guest choice

    To invite Rylan Clarke who appeared on national TV last year regurgitating Reform propaganda in the most ignorant and self interested way is a massive failing on the part of this host.

  • Fluffy chats

    Sycophantic with guests… saying “I’m so sorry that happened to you” in an overly earnest way practically every time doesn’t make you a great interviewer. It’s fluff… which is fine if you want fluff.

    Asking Chiminanda Nyogi Adichie about the relevance of Kim Kardashian? Seriously ? Whatever you do in your own time is your business. But this was just plain embarrassing.
