Reviews
- Signed up and best money spent in years
To Ian and Dorian my heartfelt thanks for this podcast. It is informative, amusing, contextual and compelling. One of the latest episodes, stop the war, is a forensic analysis of the immoral left that views the world in binary terms, acts in its own imperialistic ways. Seeing that only “They” have the answer; the world according to their ideology is split into two camps of the oppressors and the oppressed.

I can simply say this is one of the best podcasts around. I can’t even begin to wonder how much prep goes into each one but the level of detail and understanding is fantastic. A big thank you to both Ian, Dorian and the team for this. It has helped me wrap my head around a number of complicated, topical and interesting subjects.
