  • Feedback

    I had to switch off the podcast as soon as it crossed to a reporter covering Erin Patterson’s sentencing on August 26th. The audio quality was so poor it was physically uncomfortable to listen to. In this day and age, and particularly from a Mamma Mia production, I would expect far higher standards.

    Basically a barrage of advertising peppered with amateurishly delivered titbits of news.

  • 3 days later and silence

    One of the biggest stories in the country this week and crickets are all we hear.

    ABC vs Lattouf verdict should definitely have been featured on both the Quickly and MMOL before close of business Friday.

    I’m a regular listener and subscriber and I genuinely expect better than this. Be impartial and do your job.

    If it wasn’t for the underlying subject matter related to this case, I’m certain this would have been celebrated across your platform.

  • Coeliac Disease

    Very disappointed in name of Disease by doctor today. It is called Coeliac Disease, not Coeliacs Disease. Found it hard to take encouraging news for testing seriously when the doctor from ‘Well’ called the disease by the wrong name.

  • Gone downhill

    This has always been my go to and I’ve been a daily listener for years but since Claire has gone over to well it’s lacked any depth. And the repetition of the same ads allllll the time for weeks on end is incredibly irritating. Please bring back som stories with some substance.
