I listen every week. I would prefer to watch on YouTube but the episodes take too long to load and I like to listen on the day of release.
Both journalists are very insightful and give important in depth information.
Apple Podcasts5William KinreadUnited Kingdom2 months ago - Substandard imitation
This is obviously Sky News attempt at competing with the highly successful GoalHanger podcast with Katty Kay and Anthony Scaramucci but doesn’t even come close. These two are fairly amateurish in comparison and offer little genuine insight.
