  • The Best

    I agree with previous reviewer - I listen to most the politic podcasts and if I could only have one it would be this one. Always a clear in-depth analysis and I don’t hear the bias which creeps into other pods. I love Alex’s insights into various situations facilitated by Naomi and Kenny. All three are an absolute pleasure to listen to - hope it won’t be too long before you are in the top ten ( I love you all 😆)

  • Essential listening for a nuanced reflection of the weekly news with the occasional glimpse behind the parliamentary curtain. Love the wholehearted embrace of social justice issues and support of marginalised communities. Excellent work from the whole team!
