AHA is an amazing thinker and was part of one of your best podcasts. Love the show.
John, Thanks for your excellent work in creating this podcast show. Your conversations bring a level of balanced thinking that is rare in Australian media. This is a great contribution to civic discourse in our country. Paul Walter, Cammeray, NSW

A fine podcast, both host and guests. I look forward to hearing each new episode.
Excellent podcast, as always. Especially poignant considering the anti Semetic attack in Bondi yesterday
