    Like all other Goalhanger podcasts they see to be getting shorter with far more adverts. The constant push for membership is a real turnoff too. You forget most of us joined up free and we can’t afford to join 4/5 different ones. After all we keep your paying advertisers goingEverything is cyclical, you ignore us at your peril!

    Unfortunately there is a low level of new information followed by heavily opinionated points. I listened for a considerable amount of time but recent comments like “Europe can’t keep calling 911 every time there’s a crisis in Europe” are so devoid of any historic political understanding that the presenters should be replaced.

  • Great Pod But …

    I really enjoy both TRIP podcasts and being a politics nerd I have subscriptions to both. I am a little disappointed when each of the podcasts uses the others material in particular the Elon Musk series on TRIP UK and the JD Vance series on TRIP US. It feels like I’ve been short changed!
