“Private Eye remains the most trustworthy neutral news source still employing investigative journalism.
Their podcast, the elusive p94, where all stories go to die, had better be good then.
It is”

“I often find other news podcasts whether satirical or serious, often can be too heavy and depressing. But Private Eye always manages to be very informative and I come away positive after listening. The team are great.”

“Live in London was just hilarious. I listened on headphones while on a run. I must have looked crazy as I kept bursting out laughing. Johnson and Captain Tom sketches were just the best”

“In a competitive ‘centrist’ podcast market, this one consists largely of insufferably posh sounding folks whinnying and being condescending. Little insight, much contemptuous bile. They all appear very pleased with themselves. Soul destroyingly awful.”

“PE doing what it does best: investigating and skewering those in power, always with a wry smile. Love it even more with Helen Lewis on-boss. Overall, v good indeed and often hilarious (amongst all the current gloom).”

“Private Eye appears to have sadly become little more than the centrist standard bearer. Lots of privately educated people using incorrect figures and assumptions (HS2 reporting in particular has been abysmal) ticking off any public spending. Whilst their local Govt work continues, looking at...”Read full review »

“Lives up to the Eye’s reputation for gleeful muckraking with tongue planted firmly in cheek. These guys are the happy-go-lucky Jack Russell terriers of investigative journalism, digging deeply and enthusiastically until they catch the prey they’re after—and the hauls they bring in are truly...”Read full review »
