“I've been listening to Today for more years than I care to remember.
The halcyon days were undoubtedly those of Brian Redhead and John Humphrys. After Brian Redhead died the torch was passed to John Humphrys alone to truly challenge those in power to clarify & justify their policies, and what a fine job he did at it.
Now we are in the post Humphrys era where there is no longer a successor to conduct pin-point accurate forensic questioning of these charlatans who govern us.
The Today programme has, hopefully only temporarily, lost the tin-opener to open the cans of worms that we all know politicians seek to hide from us; politicians these days are lightweights who are consistently let off the hook by timid interviewers who seemingly recoil from asking THE difficult question.
Today needs another Redhead or another Humphrys to TRULY CHALLENGE those in power again.”Read full review »

“This show has excellent content although I do wonder how the segments are selected as they do not always reflect the leading stories of the day. What detracts from the content is the endless repetition of trailers for other shows. It wouldn’t be too bad if the trailers were for a variety of...”Read full review »
