“Hi Darren, thank you for the podcast. I only found out about Allan, his book ‘fear of abandonment…’ and your podcast after his death. As an extension of your commitment to his legacy, have you considered creating an audio recording of his book?”

“Is it realistic expectation for America and England to come to our rescue if we are attacked.
Will AUKUS hold or will Australia become the battlefield for another proxy war like Ukraine?”

“Allan and Darren
Thank you for a fantastic episode on the situation in Ukraine. I found it to be a masterclass on all the elements of IR theory you mentioned and on the potential implications for Australia. Great analysis.”

Darren is energetic and creative, and I love his references to, and application of, economic and international relations theories. Allan on the other hand is predictably pro-Labour,...”Read full review »

“I started out thinking they were providing information for me. After listening time and time again all they do is frame what is happening in as many colourful toffy ways as they can and everything they say can only ever be undisputed. They describe liberal left world regimes as cleaning up the...”Read full review »

“It feels often the discussion is a bit panned, planned, and punctuated by written paragraphs. Would love a little more spontaneity! But understand that for foreign affairs academics, this might be hard!”

“Thank you so much for your thoughtful discussions. I have learned and continue to learn so much. My only criticism is with regard to conversations on China. I may be wrong but it seems to me that you both tiptoe around issues related to China and don’t speak your minds.”
