  • Good Summaries, but

    Why on earth must you give Simon Bridges so much air time? He’s got absolutely nothing of value to add

  • Great for Aussies

    We hear almost nothing about New Zealand on Australian news. This podcast is a great way to understand that there are alternatives to Australia’s style of politicking.

  • Needs a little more producing
