  • MOSTLY INFORMATIVE

    Chris is an informative presenter, most of the time, with the only exception that he is a climate change denier. You can’t be a climate change denier, and claim at the same time to be informative. Do your homework Chris, and only then will you become one of the top radio presenters in Sydney. ✅✅✅

  • Most biased podcast I've ever listened to.

    Right wing rubbish. Don't listen to this podcast unless you like hearing fascists talk to other fascists. Ramblings of a completely biased neo-conservative old man
