United Kingdom6 months ago - Fabulous content
The number of half finished podcasts I have is huge. Mostly because I always listen whilst doing other things but also because I lose interest or the pod runs out of steam! I have the attention span of a goldfish but Macrodose seems to grab my interest and hold it!

Firstly, thank you.
The weekly pod is direct, clear, to the point, relevant, and nicely short.

Germanya year ago - My go to podcast!
Great variety of contributors and content. But please cut down on the unnecessary intro music etc. Thanks for your hard work.
Apple Podcasts5unschoolingmamaUnited Kingdoma year ago - Election debrief lack of intelligent analysis
Without James Meadway all balance was lost with a full scale attack on Starmer from the two contributors. Suggesting the cabinet despises those without further ed and that “Labour pandered to right wing voters who never voted for them” and already saying Starmer can’t possibly win the 2nd term! Where’s the intelligent analysis gone?
