  • Good insights

    Good insights and speakers but honestly sometimes the speakers mumble and I can’t hear them clearly through my earphone at max volume (granted I was in a public transport) so anything you could help with the sound editing would be great

  • Unwarranted Bias In Certain Episodes

    Genuinely baffling that the basis of the discussion for the Freedom of Speech episode is a loaded question. It is immediately assumed that Freedom of Speech is curtailed in Indonesia — cherry-picking certain examples and ignoring the fact that people like the 212 Campaign can riot on the streets with little to no repercussions. Absolutely disappointing. I expected a much more nuanced discussion on this topic, and instead was met with such a myopic take, so this is the point that i unsubscribe.

  • Very informative

    One of the few—and certainly the best—podcast about Indonesia in English. The interviewers present diverse topics related to Indonesia's current events, and the interviewees provide most interesting perspectives from within and out.
