One of the best.
Thank you The Times for telling me about Roger’s podcast
Really looking forward to catching up with the sexiest voice on radio!

This is NOT a "Beeb Watch" it is just a BBC Cheer Leader exercise not an independent Podcast. Bolton constantly ensures any guest is as pro BBC and DEFINITELY Anti GBNews as he desires.
Balanced? No way.
I’ve been listening/watching Roger for as long as I can remember so it’s great to hear him discussing the Beeb at this time when we’re in danger of losing it
So good to hear Roger again. Thanks to article in The Guardian.
