“This programme is so much better with Jane Garvey presenting! So nice to have a break from Paddy O’Connell’s sense of humour, which is generally outdated and spiteful. I like to tune in for a Sunday analysis of the day’s news but have started to dread his jokes - cheap laughs at someone else’s...”Read full review »

“This program is sunshine in audio file form. I’m from the US but my Sunday routine is incomplete without listening to Paddy, the main story, slow radio and the guest headlines. A+ podcast.”

“An extremely high quality podcast reviewing the past week/weekend news with both sides of the story BUT plagued by technical/human error like not posting that week’s edition or only sending out the first 7 or 8 minutes!”

“Please get these podcasts sorted out. They are either very late or, like yesterday's, they don't happen at all. Only 6 minutes into the programme and it cut out. Very frustrating particularly as I was driving and couldn't do anything about it.”Read full review »

“What’s the point of subscribing to a news podcast if the broadcaster doesn’t make it available in a timely manner?
Come on BBC!

“Some episodes are a joy. Some are truly awful. 10 minutes chopping vegetables, and trotting out contributors promoting a book, commenting like a press release.”

“This is how all news programs should be. There is humour, really insightful and infromative discussion of the news events of the day, and often some really touching commentary from the public and the guests. The only downside is that it is very Britain centric, and not really for a global audience.”

“I suppose it all depends what you want a podcast to do for you. As a Radio 4 anorak, I subscribe to a variety of R4 podcasts and listen to them on my walk to and from work.
