  • Great content, terrible production

    The recent Peter Hitchens and Chris Snowdon episode was unlistenable as are many others. Such a shame because the content is excellent. Keep up the good work but please employ a decent sound technician!

  • Cracking podcast for libertarians

    30 minute bite size chunks about a different policy area each week. Always something different and not always unanimous views. But mainly in the free market direction.
