“Love this podcast. Giles and Esther are fast, funny and refreshingly honest. There’s a delicious dollop of cynicism to their discussions, which (imo) is much needed in this effing boring, virtue-signalling, politically correct, woke/cancel-culture era we’ve all been straight-jacketed into…. Keep...”Read full review »

“Boring, love sound of own voices and why oh why do they shout into the microphone. Goes from too quiet to REALLY LOUD in a second.”

“Where is Giles where is Esther? I am missing their banter. O K so his resto column is back but please don’t give up on the glorious podcast you two - I just love it - better than all the rest of the half baked crap you get others doing - footballers & the other dregs! Come back pretty...”Read full review »

“I have listened to a few episodes now and really enjoy some of the topics covered, however unfortunately the style of presenting is annoying. Having two presenters talking over each other, shouting into the mic or at other just lets the Podcast down. It’s not often I have to turn a programme off...”Read full review »

“You spark off each other nicely and it sounds unscripted, but dial down the public school drawl please. “Novry” “asly” “cleetly” “wlever” can be enunciated as “Not very”, “absolutely”, “completely“ and “whatever”.”

“One episode of listening to this gibbering pillock who can’t finish a single one of his inane thoughts before motoring onto the next dull thing he thinks is “edgy”. Abysmal”

“A podcast portraying a mostly-fictional slice of life in the Coren household. You are only meant to have semi-seriously belief that Giles Coren is a boorish man child who makes his wife (Esther) feel less than whole, but in every episode, there’s always a comment or tone that make you think “what...”Read full review »

“Enjoy the normal podcast and really like desert island crisps. BUT can’t believe that neither you, nor Ben, managed to find viscount biscuits! Just google!!! Had them again, after many years, during the first lockdown - still good!”

“I have just found this podcast and have been loving the Giles-Esther dynamic - but then this Crisps thing pops up. Please, more of the domestic duo. Good as they are we can hear ego massaging sleb interviews anywhere.”

“I don’t understand the complaints from people who say he talks too fast. The diction and grammar are perfect, marred only by occasional profanity, there are no glottal stops, and the whole is a witty feast of unreason and a flow of cynicism. Would the malcontents prefer an inarticulate oaf?”

“Dear Giles and Esther, I love you both. I’ve just discovered your podcast (advertised in The Times article on Saturday) so decided to start on Number One and work my way forward. I’m already dreading reaching 2021 and having to wait for a week for a top up (I’m currently mainlining it as I type)....”Read full review »

“As an English woman living in Australia my podcast worlds collided today when journalist Annabel Crabb related a Giles Coren story in her podcast Chat 10 Looks 3
(Episode: 146). Her colleague Leigh Sales (not familiar with the work of Giles) enquires if Mr Coren was still alive... An odd story...”Read full review »
