    James and team have been a source of information and opportunity to hear varied perspectives (call ins) for years. In recent months, James has been a source of hope and a voice of reason amidst the chaos I’m seeing here in the USA. I love you, James. You’re brilliant and I feel so fortunate to be able to listen to you everyday.

  • Love James but editing still very shoddy

    Loves listening to James but due to work I can only listen via catch up and often the podcast becomes very hard to listen to due to shoddy editing.
