“Sometimes the mask slips even with more reasonable sounding Conservatives like Fraser Nelson describing the recent racist scandal against Diane Abbott when the Tory donor said she made him want to kill all black people as a “small thing” 18/3/24 for reference. Shocking and shameful.”

“Really topical podcast with excellent team with Katy, Spencer, Kate, Cindi and James. Not my natural listen and I often disagree with them vehemently but their journalism is top notch and designed to provoke through and dialogue and debate (Which it sure does in our house). You need to listen to...”Read full review »

“Possibly the best politics team in Westminster. Katy, James & Isabel are brilliant - insightful & funny. And even better when they add Stephen Bush from NS. I often disagree but I always learn something. Fraser is just becoming, at best an irritation - more often an annoyance. No analysis...”Read full review »

“I feel the enthusiasm for bringing fresh perspectives fell on the wayside a while ago with this pod. An update for the talking points of the day (although perhaps more a self-sooth for writers who otherwise should stick to the day job), the presenters though highly esteemed are pretty centre...”Read full review »

“Hi all
1. Have given a 5 star but not on the basis of the pap i have just listened to: how is camerons return going.
2. Having two cameron fanboys/girls on the podcast is not analysis rather a eulogy.
3. Cameron made some stunningly bad foreign policy decisions destroying Libya and bringing...”Read full review »

“I am unsubscribing as I used to enjoy listening to a balanced argument but this is becoming more left wing by the day. Must be something to do with the new prospective owners.”

“As the title says, this is much much better than anything coming out of the BBC. The “episodes” are compact, informative and well balanced. No patronising Beebisms (“let me explain my the NHS is brilliant whatever the data shows” nonsense).”

“I’ve been pleasantly surprised by coffee house shots as a centre-left liberal, it provides a nice short political dose of the days events with some opinionated but relatively gentle commentary.
It does probably help that there is little worth defending with the current Conservative Party so I...”Read full review »

“At this time instead of party politics nonsense, disappointing journalism.The coffee house should be informing and debating the Middle East. Where are the red lines there and who may cross. Inform first then elicit discussion. Your audience awaits.”

“The Spectator Coffee House podcasts continue to be excellent: insightful discussions always compellingly backed by experience, knowledge, and, where appropriate, data. A further (to my shame!) element of intrigue is what appears to be the occasional staff (?) mutiny rising to the surface in the...”Read full review »

“Hello there,
Coffee House Shots subject matter and analysis is in my opinion always first rate, however the recording quality is the exact opposite.
You really need to fix this.”

“A quick review to say that the Hitchens & Snowdon podcast on time was brilliant.
Hitchens is always a very difficult person to have on as he does talk over people, but, these two seem to get on well and both have varied and informed opinions.
It would be brilliant to add to the Spectator...”Read full review »
