- The Karvelas Vanity Project.
This poddy is a vehicle for Karvelas monumental ego. Don’t wast your time. She’s intolerably smug, sanctimonious and obsessed with telling everyone how much she knows about politics. #yawn

Love the regularity and in-depth analysis of the Australian Political Landscape.
It would be even better without the policy judgements. Let’s keep the ABC for everyone.
Apple Podcasts2brassrazoosAustralia2 months ago - Maintaining the status quo
Broadly, I love the ABC.
But if PK and co continue to pay lip service to - or blatantly ignore - the legitimate concerns of many Australians then you have failed this country.
If you continue to ignore these concerns, and if/when populism takes hold in Australia, the ABC will have to shoulder some of the blame
Apple Podcasts1Tombot82Australia2 months ago - Lack of Knowledge Will Tear us Apart
If PK loves “unknown pleasures” so much, why does she think it has Love Will Tear Us Apart on it? Disappointing
Apple Podcasts2Turk Rocket!Australia3 months ago - Come back Fran Kelly
I enjoy this podcast because I find it informative, but I really find it difficult to listen to since Mel came on board. She loves her own voice, never shuts up and talks over everyone. It is painful to listen to.
