Barry Cassidy has been gone for months, how hard is it to change a picture and the name of the host?

The full program is often not available - on the website or the podcast.... Or only sections of it are available. Please just upload the full program

I live in a bus .. no TV.. love my podcasts and Aunty ..so please why can’t we have just the Audio as we do with Q&A...

A great way to catch up on the week in politics and get different points of view
Luke from Wollongong via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 09/22/19
This is a wonderful show which I watch weekly and really enjoy having as a video podcast. Please split the full episodes into their own podcast (or just get rid of the individual segment videos!) because it does make it hard to just keep the latest episode which is often a single segment. Ends...Read full review »

Shame the ABC cuts have meant the podcast isn’t promptly available.
deelleeff via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/29/19
Not sure who the individual segments are for but they are super annoying in the podcast feed for someone who just want to catch up on the full program. Please consider splitting to a separate podcast for the full program. Otherwise great show and Barry will be sadly missed.

Barry Cassidy is a very top notch journalist who does his job in a most professional unbiased manner regardless of the political leanings of his guests. He will be missed when he retires
rielesta via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/29/19
Barrie Cassidy should not hold himself out to be independent. There is a huge disparity in the way he treats ALP members vs Liberal members.

The best show on Australian politics in Australia.
Prof W Robertson via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/05/19
By far the best politics talk show in the country. Much better since they have an entire show per file
AustralianCynic via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/02/18
The most excellent show on Australian politics ever. Hands down.

It's really frustrating being overseas and not being able to access ABC programs.Read full review »

Best political analysis/news in Australia
Compterduck via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/26/18
I skimmed through the reviews and it is nearly unanimous that the show should be uploaded as a single podcast per week. I know you do that as well as the little breakup bits, but the full episode is always uploaded later. An audio only option makes sense too. Great show, so have given 5 stars...Read full review »

Who are the 5 people in the universe who would actually want each episode of this show delivered as a servies of short videos??!! What exactly is wrong with an audio podcast in a single file? Maybe satisfying the Liberal-Nationals by completing turning the audience away? Brilliant...Read full review »
Barryco via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/02/18
Great show, best political one I know, by far. BUT should be an AUDIO ONLY OPTION, for those of us who dont have data allowance to burn
bloke8 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/20/18
Would rather have the option of audio only download.
Wp65 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/05/18
When you live outside of Australia, you can be selective what you read, listen to and watch from the buffet of material on line and in podcasts. Insiders is my main course every Sunday. It’s just great to be able to access this show in video as well as audio. Great work Barrie and the mix of...Read full review »
I'm In China via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/18/18
I’m finding this new version inferior to the previous one I can’t delete downloads I don’t want to listen to / so they clutter up my space
Mira52 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/17/17
What’s gone wrong with podcast streaming from ABC? PM is split into segments which don’t follow and now Insiders too!
Lawsodfromjapan via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/05/17
give it a miss
Pouchbastard via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/15/17
Great show
Ankles1959 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 09/22/17
Being able to automatically subscribe to the whole program only would make sense. I don't need unwanted copies of individual segments contained in the whole. Just unnecessary use of bandwidth.Read full review »

I used to just love the audio full program- this new video mush is not for me
Johnno18016 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/14/16
Sheesh, the years-old whinging about this podcast! Note to all: FULL VIDEO EPISODES are available as well as individual chunks. Can we get the 5 star ratings Insiders deserves now please?
albyrw via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/08/16
Small chunks of video so incredibly annoying. Bring back the audio podcast, this is terrible.
Elbow arbitrage via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/29/15
need a single video file option - i find this approach unusable
Boab_1962 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/02/15
Chunking the podcast like this is a ridiculous idea, and the decision not to offer audio has ruptured my hold on reality....??????? Really, who at the ABC made these decisions, and why haven't they been sacked? Still, I love the show - Barry, may you live to be a thousand years old.Read full review »
Zombie Slaughta via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/01/15
The ABC inexplicably and annoyingly abandoned the audio podcast a few years ago. Now the video podcast is unreliable - it might get posted on Sunday, or it might be Monday. The whole episode podcast might go up, or maybe just parts of the episode. Frustrating.
Mattsea via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/29/15
Can't you make it available a little sooner? Like the day it happens? Really it is a show that should be watched as soon as possible after it airs - take the leadership tussle last week - by the time insiders was available the whole thing was a done deal. No one is all that interested in...Read full review »
Jungfiend via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/15/15
Audio only version of INSIDERS meets real need here too. Visuals useful but the audio gets me about 90% of the content at 5% of the effort (download time, atc), plus more versatile consumption opportunities. Anyhow, doesn't ABC News radio run the audio an hour or two after the TV versionh,...Read full review »
bondi bloke via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/08/15
Barrie Cassidy's political insight, even handed assessments and quick wit makes Insiders the best hour of political television in Australia. The panelists rise above the petty squabbling of Canberra and tabloid media and provide acerbic and honest discourse on the week in Australian politics.Read full review »

I can't watch the show on TV as I'm not home at that time, but the podcast is a pain to follow. Please, PLEASE, put this back to a single audio file as this format is unusable.Read full review »
<BooRadley> via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/05/14
After so much discontent I can't believe the issues surrounding this pod cast have not been resolved. Unless. Abbots stooges at the ABC clearly don't like unbiased Cometary and analysis of government policy. Maybe. They want you to Tune into Sky/Fox for the correct Conservative/Corporate...Read full review »

2014 and still no awareness of how unhappy people are. Have not listened or watched insiders since the change and now listen to others.
davehammond via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/20/14
Bring back the Audio. Thank you in advance.
Cobardave via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/24/13
With so many poor reviews for the format but such high demand for the content, I can't understand why you don't just fix it. A single file surely can't be hard. A sound only would be much appreciated.Read full review »

Klmyay via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/28/13
This was my favorite podcast for years, until someone who has no idea about media and delivery decided to can the audio podcast. And then divide that into the segments. Which 90 year old who has never dealt with online media took this decision I wonder. Please someone stop this man and bring the...Read full review »
Arctic koala via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/23/13
Great tv show but would prefer it to be a single show download instead on broken down into chapters. C'mon Producers sort it out! You might end up under Barry's microscope if your not careful.Read full review »

I have been subscribing to this podcast for a few years. I am disappointed the audio podcast has been discontinued as I listen to it on the train. I can deal with the video - I get media watch that way. but what damned fool decided to cut shows into pieces? give me a podcast that is the complete...Read full review »

Change it back for ****s sake! Is anyone at the ABC even listening to its audience?
Zetetick via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/09/12
If you're frustrated as much as I am then can I suggest the Sky channel podcasts. Sky business and political news are excellent. It's time to start voting with our fingers. Personally I have barred the ABC channel on my Foxtel remote and deleted all ABC podcasts. Enough is enough....Read full review »
gtopa via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/11/12
This is an excellent show, but since switching to video format in podcasts it is almost unwatchable. They have broken down each segment to be its own download, some only a minute or two long. This is crazy if you'retrying to listen on the bus....very frustrating!Read full review »
