Potentially good series ruined by clear political biases
A pretty good podcast ruined by it clear political biases. It quite rightly points to pro-Trump shenanigans after 2021 Presidential elections in exacerbating polarisation in the US, but totally fails to mention the anti-Trump reaction in the wake of the 2016 elections. It repeats largely disproven conspiracy theories surrounding Brexit, and conflates probable Russian attempts to influence the referendum as pretty much proven facts of Russia bank-rolling and winning the referendum on behalf of Farage et al. It does unfortunately add doubt to the objectivity and accuracy of the rest of the series.

More reviews of This Is Not A Drill with Gavin Esler
This was a compelling and scary listen, very well written with an eclectic group of authoritative contributors. I eagerly await the next episode.

Excellent series of in depth analysis. Great to hear the discussion with Ian Dunt talking about How To Be a Liberal. A fantastic book and in all the doom in this series, which was tough to listen to, it was great to hear some optimism

Don’t be put off by the title. This is a grown-up horizon scanning podcast covering some punchy topics.
