  • Very good

    Mark is excellent. Ivan is good. Ivan, please stop referring to “everyone’s favourite segment” which is a dubious claim and not the reason, I suspect, most people listen. Also, Ivan, please stop snickering/chuckling as you talk through various issues. This sometimes comes across as patronising. more
