Hit and miss. Clare O'Connor is undoubtedly the strongest and most informed contributor. Unfortunately she doesn't feature every week.

Ireland5 years ago - Excellent
This is a great podcast to listen to. It’s detailed and in depth and you feel like you learn a lot during the podcast. Traditional media is rushed and does not cut to the heart of the issus affecting all of us. This podcast gives the time to analyse the issues in great detail!!
Apple Podcasts5jasto11Ireland5 years ago - I love this!
I am really interested in politics and current affairs but so many podcasts are so stuffy and boring. This feels like listening to people like me and its always so focused on issues that affect people and what we arent hearing enough of. I love that Claire always brings it back to ordinary people and talks about justice and the truth a lot and it seems to be very personal and it really makes it interesting. and I like when Dave gets angry and ranty :)
