  • Not representative news

    I know about what is going on Slovakia from other resources and people too. I feel that since state started censoring this media, it is not serving correct facts or not all the facts. Sad.

  • Podcast is okay but the English needs to be corrected. There are sometimes when you do not pronounce English words or say the proper English words to get the proper meaning.
