Reviews
- Conflicts of interest in PR?
So apparently it is totally fine for it to go completely unacknowledged that Simon Lewis’ brother, Will Lewis, current editor of the Washington Post, is heavily implicated in Prince Harry’s lawsuit against the Sun, having worked for Murdoch for over a decade after the scandal came to light. That would have noooo bearing on his analysis of Prince Harry’s apparently foolish war with the media, correct? Nope, nothing to see here. Silly, Prince Harry. more

I feel bad for not giving a 4/5 star review as this is a brilliant show and generally delivers top quality. But to not discuss the biggest PR fan hitter of the year so far - Hester, TPP and Tory donations is a cop more

United Kingdoma month ago - Wisdom + humour = brilliant
My favourite podcast of the week. The hosts have such brilliant chemistry, gentle humour and have such an incredible breadth of experience between them that they generously share. Two guys still at the absolute top of their game, more episodes please!
Apple Podcasts5SJCgypsyUnited Kingdoma month ago - Weekly must listen
I always make a point of listening to this the day it comes out. Great for really understanding what’s going on.
Apple Podcasts5ThegirlsteelUnited Kingdoma month ago - Some good content, delivered in a very dull way
This is the only podcast I listen to at 1.5 times speed. Otherwise it’s blooming interminable. These formerly-relevant white guys really love the sound of their own voices. The entitlement shows in the reeaaalllyy slowww speecchhh and expectation that they should be listened to. Get to the point guys! Some of what you say is quite interesting but ain’t nobody got the time for your pompous, drawling delivery.
