  • Industry-lite focus

    The radio medium is for the ear. So thank goodness the shrill female voice has been replaced, it was like fingernails scratching a chalkboard. Content sounds just like a rehash of media releases, sadly no industry insider goss. And I‘m not sure if it irks other listeners but I find it rather unusual that you have two people hosting this podcast but only one signs off! 🥴

  • Liking this weeks refresh :-)

    Long time listener, first time reviewer.

    I miss the good old days of Viv & Jake for their banter, strong opinions, industry insight and more in depth analysis. The podcast has truly slimmed since then unfortunately. That said, I got used to Megan & Bray and wish her the best with Jonesy & Amanda. I was pleasantly surprised this week at the somewhat revamp with Shen joining.
