  • Bias Thick as Cream

    Miguel Delaney and Melissa Reddy are so painfully biased it’s impossible to take anything they say seriously. This degree of bias would cannot pass as acceptable in “mainstream media.” And yet they gave the audacity to cast moral aspersions about others associated with the game mostly to pander to fans of the established elite. Delaney isn’t a journalist worth his salt and needs to take a hard look in the mirror - he’s part of what’s driving the erosion of quality journalism.

  • Content is fine, sound quality terrible [update]

    Update: Dec 2019

    Sound quality has improved but they often go missing for weeks on end. If they can make it into a regular weekly podcast it would get four stars.

Surely the Independent can bung these fellas a few quid to purchase some decent equipment and production time...I’m more than willing to sit through ads too...othe... more
