- ABCIDF
After seeing the “independent” ABC now controlled by a foreign government (IDF) this podcast and if you’re listening is the only quality programming on ABC that I barely trust… at the moment.

Punchy and insightful analysis of Australian politics - great host
Apple Podcasts5Milo_73Australiaa month ago - Very poor
I can no longer listen to this program.
Police picking up praying muslims by the shirt and throwing them to the ground is not an “interruption”. Police charging at protesters is not “protester’s breaking police lines”. And trying to minimise the obvious police brutality and conflate two separate issues by saying “Jewish people have a right to grieve”. Like what does that have to do with it? It’s is just such poor reporting of facts. I expected better.
Apple Podcasts1Can’t take anymoreAustraliaa month ago - Good Balanced Pod
Love the pod. Wide variety of views and policy analysis makes the pod feel like anyone can listen and get a grasp of proposed policy
Apple Podcasts5BoitioxAustraliaa month ago - 3Feb male too much talk!!
Like but guy on 3 Feb talks way too much. I listened when he was in and pk was away and he was far less intrusive on the male substitute. I don’t think he knows he is doing it but he does. He is more likely to interrupt PK and give his view rather than listen to hers. It’s too much of his voice and his perspective.
