As a listener and new member from New Zealand, I’d go as far as saying this could be the smartest thing Australia has ever produced:) Many thanks Nicole and Denis!

What an eye opening, independent, honest podcast from two no nonsense hosts about the true state of affairs in our country. They are a real joy to listen to & learn from. They certainly show up how very delinquent other news sources are with their lies & misinformation. Keep up the great work!

Nicole and Denis are ruthless, and fair, in their appraisals of Australian and international media. They provide clear evidence and examples of how the media has failed its duty.
Their passion and integrity is on full display and presents a strong defence to the misinformation, misdirection and lies we are all exposed to from entrenched media and captured governments.
Apple Podcasts5ParadimnAustralia2 months ago - Clarity for us all
In Truth, Lies, and Media, I have finally found a Rosetta Stone for the modern world; one that translates the capricious and often intentionally confusing media milieu into something that is both intelligible and prescient.
Muller and Chvastek and their guests, bring combined insight, wisdom and clarity to an information age that is chatacterised by bias, obfuscation and shameless dishonesty.
Suddenly the curtain is pulled back and I am immensely grateful for this production.
Apple Podcasts5Mike FueryAustralia3 months ago - Truth to Power
Absolutely love this podcast. Both hosts cut through all the bulldust with their extensive knowledge of the media & governments with their lies & machinations. Wish there were more independent podcasts like this one. Nicole & David certainly make a difference to the usual guff we are forced to listen to by others
