    I have been listening to this podcast for years, but it feels like SBS are using their second and third rate journalists for this now. Some can barely read a transcript, some have interviewing skills of a primary school student.

    It’s no longer enjoyable. Just frustrating

  • Waste of time

    Same liberal controlled media as America. Was looking for less drama and reporting on crap, not here. Don’t waist your time.

  • Misleading headlines

    The headline about obesity in childhood affecting peoples cognitive abilities in adulthood is misleading. It’s about the positive effects of fitness, not the negative effects of obesity. Being pro-diversity also needs to mean being pro-body shapes.
