- Lack of depth and understanding
Recent Enhanced games segment revealed a lack of understanding of what the issues are from a number of the contributors. While probably not malicious, ignorance and only superficial understanding, and was unfortunately conveyed with false confidence and without challenge.

United Kingdom4 months ago - Depends on the guests
I love the week and generally this podcast is good with guests who are balanced, but more and more the guests just bring an agenda with them and only the host Ollie seems to challenge the generally very left week thinking. Please please stop having Elizabeth Carr-Ellis on the show, she clearly has an agenda for every story and does what the week stands for a disservice.

United States2 years ago - Phrasing
The presenter (Olly Mann) said that Hamas attacked Israel and Israel 'besieged' Gaza. 20,000 Gazans have been killed by Israel. Israel did a lot more than besiege. Words matter. Olly's phrasing is incredibly disrespectful to Palestinians.
