- Why so formal?
All the co-presenters and guests seem to always repeat “Sir Richard” through the shows. Surely after the first introduction just Richard would be fine? Or does he insist on it? Anyway, it sounds ridiculously stuffy and formal in 2026. Otherwise the podcast is quite informative.

Spaina month ago - Trita Parsi? Really?
This used to be a great podcast and then they suddenly had the Iranian regime operative Trita Parsi on. Whoever asked for that man to be brought on should be fired. Sadly, no longer a listener.

Denmark2 months ago - Dearlove increasingly political/odd
I’m starting to find the barely concealed political radicalisation of Sir Richard Dearlove ruins the show, which I’d previously enjoyed.

Why don’t the Greenlanders just take cash from Trump to become a US colony? Why is everyone talking about sovereignty? Surely as an ardent Brexiteer he should value the rights to self-d... more
