Weak grasp of the issues and occasional rewriting of history. Strictly for the diletante, if you want solid reporting that gets you out of your bubble, this ain't it.
The hosts seem to use the platform as an opportunity to express tedious waffle often less than adjacent to current affairs. Akin to your mates rambling voice note.
Unsubscribed after a few minutes. Why do they think people are interested in hearing them present a load of self indulgent rambling full of in jokes and them laughing at themselves.
I simply don’t get the point of this podcast at all. Full of waffle, the podcast seems to revolve around the personalities of the show’s presenters with little information, insight and analysis.
Hard work. I tried listening to an episode (the PMQs/Lammy one) but after 15 minutes of inane drivel about what a terrible driver she is, I gave up. Truly dreadful, teenie-level shrieking and babbling. Better things to do, sorry. Or 'soz' as they probably say.
