“I love these women. I was lucky enough to have found them back in the BBC days.
I remember waiting for the weekly treat to arrive with the charming Shaun Keaveny intervals.
They truly make life better. Now I’m just greedy… four episodes a week? Is that all! When they say they need to hurry up,...”Read full review »

“I laugh, smirk, roll my eyes and groan be it because of the subject, the guests, the content, but it’s like being out with a couple of great friends who just get you and you get them. A must listen or catch up for me. Ideal to pop on while pottering around the house - as the promo says. Never...”Read full review »

“It’s a little weird having best friends who don’t know you, but there we go, Fi & Jane more than qualify on almost every level and I hang out with them daily. They remind me of home, goodness and are very funny into the excellent bargain”

“Five stars for Jane and Fi - none for the boss.
Let’s have a serious debate about Rupert Murdoch on the show / podcast - the utter rotten apple he is. I love them both, Jane and Fi, and think they’re excellent at the job. I’ve been loyal for as long as they’ve been together and can’t hack...”Read full review »

“I am so tired of the constant contempt and belittling of men. This is how we didn’t like men behaving. I have listened to this podcast for the last few years, but it is getting too much. I am not a Tory and I consider myself a feminist, but do not like this tone which feels so anti men. The Rory...”Read full review »

“Big Fi and Jane fan, but the Rory Stewart episode made me incredibly sad. Not that it was quite tough questions, glad about that, but the general contempt you could feel from them to him, seemed most unfair. It was a bit like “why didnt you fix it then” as opposed to seeing him as the actual...”Read full review »

So if you skip the first 5+ mins you can get to these lovely ladies.”

“Fi Glover is the best radio presenter working in the industry bar none. And she has been for two decades. She has a voice like the best hug you’ve ever had, a laugh that is utterly intoxicating and a brain that makes you hang on every word she says. What’s more, she’ll lull you into a false sense...”Read full review »

“I love Jane and Fi, they are fantastic broadcasters.
