I’m not picky when it comes to host but with all due respect I’ve never heard a host interrupt the guest mid sentence more than this one, and when he does he always changes topics and never lets them finish their thought. Love the pod just hate the host

While there is no question about the value of the programme, quality of panellists and range of topics, Mr Bragg’s arrogance and personal bias about some topics- which on times borders bullying- is really annoying. The negative effect of that is more tangible when u compare the episodes when he...Read full review »

Marvellously Rude! Has been phenomenal for all these years!

Very interesting podcast with great guests, but host Melvyn Bragg interrupts guests way too often, it can be frustrating to listen to.

Melvyn Bragg should probably be considered for beatification. His programme has done more than any other I know in recent years to promote public understanding and knowledge.

This is an absolutely wonderful and enlightening series of programs. The topics, the insights, the seriousness, the awake curiosity, the scholarly level, the inspiring discussions in a warm atmosphere and a calm tempo, the host's gentle management of the whole and, last but not the least –...Read full review »

Melvin Bragg is a host from a different era: knighted for his public radio work, a writer himself, he prepares extensively for each program and holds the guests to a much higher standard than do hosts in almost all other podcasts around these days. Yes he is direct and sometimes rude, probably...Read full review »

Gives bite sized nuggets of facts and info about world religions, making this a very valuable podcast for anybody wishing to dabble in religious and spiritual ideas.

Genuine experts on interesting subjects. Melvin keeps the discussions brisk and entertaining. I learn so much listening to this show!

I enjoy the podcast, but how infrequently it releases makes it not worth subscribing. I understand this is a subset of the whole In Our Time podcast, but I don’t care about the other stuff they produce.

Wonderful!
