  • Awful

    Background noise is dreadful making the content difficult to hear. Gave me a headache trying to listen to it. I gave it two stars because some of the items I managed to hear were funny. Sorry, I cannot recommend this podcast.

  • A work of genius.

    As someone who has long side become jaded with the coverage of Current Affairs, this show is the very definition of a breath of fresh air. more

  • OUTSTANDING!

    This is truly the best podcast I have ever heard. It’s what five stars should really be reserved for. The show is fun, clever, funny, scary, thought provoking, and hugely enjoyable. I imagine many hours go into producing each minute that we hear but the effort is fully appreciated. Thank you!

  • Why not celebrate the BBC?

    I absolutely LOVE "The Skewer". So I was surprised by the episode "100 Years of the BBC" - I was expecting an uplifting celebration, but it was relentlessly negative and even cynical! Still a loyal fan though.
