“This used to an excellent podcast in its early days, featuring a balanced selection of opinions from all sides of political spectrum and an in-depth analyses. However, after the departure of Anand Ranganathan and save rare interventions from some fellow invited guests or Anand Vardhan, the podcast has lately turned into a leftist, anti-Modi, anti-Arnab rant by its host Abhinandan. Often the fellow panelists gang up against the lone dissenter on the podcast and change the entire discourse into imposing their views. There is total disregard of ‘respecting the other opinion’ and most of the panelists often indulge in labeling any dissenting voice as a right-winger, bhakt or bigot. What is still great are recommendations from a few panelists especially Madhu Trehan. The songs at the end are slapstick with no connection with the theme. Not sure if they are played for their entertainment value (which is zero) or other esoteric purposes.”
