Reviews

4.9 out of 5 stars from 21 ratings
  • Interesting discussions

    Came across Hal Kempfor from his reports on FOX, started listening to FOX as weary of UK news reporting….depressing and scaremongering with no depth to it. Enjoyed listening to him discussing topics, so refreshing to listen to a person with so much knowledge, insight and world experience

    Now found STRAT and the very interesting discussions

    Thank you from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
