    Great idea for a podcast but the episodes are getting longer and longer so I give up half way through, especially with the guests are comedians many of which are unknown.

  • I don’t do reviews

    Been listening for a while as they popped up on Twitter but I thought I owed Fenton a review for all the pleasure they’ve given me. It’s a fantastic show that opens up the guests lives like no other I’ve listened too. No doubt Fenton is a huge part of this, that and attracting a cornucopia of honest folk. I’ve never left one not having learnt something new about the guest but also things relevant to my own life, childhood, parents, parenting and work experiences of every kind. Highly recommend. ... more

  • Interesting podcast, but honestly, if the audio quality of an episode is poor because it's recorded over a phone connection, ask yourselves if it wouldn't be better to wait until you can make a better quality recording!
