  • A lovely and important part of my life

    My absolute favourite podcast. Love these brilliant women. I look forward to listening each evening and am bereft when they’re off. Intelligent, comforting, topical, current, wide-ranging and hilarious.

  • A bit hit and miss.

    It can be enjoyable, informative, fun. I was thrown by a rather hostile interview recently by JG with Julien Clarey. She was tetchy and it was as if she was looking for something to have a go at him about. If you invite someone, at least have an idea what you want to talk to them about. And the sniffy, I don’t get Taskmaster, just silly. It felt like FG was called into rescue it. Julien C was as cool and urbane as you would expect.

  • Why the times?

    I used to love this podcast, why did they move to the times? Now I have to support a centre-right part of a media giant to listen.

More than a handful is a waste (with Minette Batters)
Q: Tell us about growing up on the family farm and the tenancy structure.
