The podcast is OK, buts but right of centre. On the whole it feels like a group of people who think they are radical, but very much in the mould of the Starmer, McSweeney, Streeting right wingers who have stolen the Labour Party
I was really enjoying your podcast, but the latest episode gave me pause - the Greens/Polanski-bashing was alarming, the bias in the reporting of ‘evidence’ even more so. 1-star because I had to. Unsubscribed.
I’m a rightwinger but do believe it’s important to listen to views and opinions that are not always the same as ones own and i genuinely love pod masters and especially the bunker and oh god. But I’ve noticed, especially in the last episode that a lot of the presenters but especially Ros, talk about the feelings Trump brings out in people like it’s his fault and they have no personal responsibility for their actions because Trump makes them extreme. Trump can not control how people feel
