“This used to be a great podcast but the quality has reduced rapidly since going daily and this is not helped by the constant begging for money from listeners. Enough!”

“I’d been listening to the podcast for a while but today’s show was disappointing. The first story was taken and commented on at face value. This is despite a wealth of evidence, incredibly easy to access, to suggest it was a stunt and widely misreported. The way this podcast dealt with it was...”Read full review »

“This is generally very good, but variable depending on the presenters and guests. If the guests are clever, so is the commentary. Sometimes they are thick as mince, which is jarring. One had a go at the police once for ‘making a law’ he didn’t like… fundamentally misunderstanding how laws are...”Read full review »

“A rotating cast of people review the headlines from the broadsheets and the red tops. Not only are they genuinely funny, but many of them have been involved in Fleet Street, allowing a bit of an Insight into how the news is polished for our consumption.
I have honestly laughed out loud so many...”Read full review »

“I swear like a drunken sailor most of the time, but could manage to dig deep and find the strength not to do it constantly through a podcast. Really spoils the show Marcus Bridgestock is outstanding on this though.”

“Worth it for Miranda’s joyfully irreverent laugh alone. I can praise it no more highly than by saying it is up there alongside Mutley in the hallowed pantheon of celebrity laughs.”

I find myself listening to every edition and always feel more buoyant afterwards. The guests are well chosen but Miranda Sawyer who previously,...”Read full review »

“I used to absolutely love this show. Recommend it to everyone. The recent insensitive comments regarding the disgraceful distasteful comments about the Zara & M&S Ad campaigns were just …. Not it. I can’t relate to these types of people anymore unfortunately.”

“This would be so much more enjoyable without the really irritating cackling from one of the presenters. She loves her own « jokes » so much, and on a recent episode she even found the word « Dutch » impossibly funny, which led to several seconds of mindless giggling.
So much better when she’s not on”

“I don’t mind swearing when done for a reason but as much as I enjoy Jonn Elledge, I wish he could do use other words now and again.
Apart from that I love this podcast. Clever, witty and about my favourite topic - newspapers. It’s like a group What the Papers Say, which I’m old enough to...”Read full review »

Update: a Tinder date and I once stopped off at The Langham for a late night pee. Upon exiting the loo I was met by security, who had sussed out that we weren’t guests and helped me out of the building. Still got to pee though so...”Read full review »

Miranda Sawyer and her rotating cast of guests tear into the day’s newspapers with enthusiasm, analysing how different papers prioritise different facets of the big stories, sharing the best headlines (especially from the Star), but...”Read full review »

“Brilliant, irreverent show providing scalpel-sharp analysis of the sometimes unhinged, occasionally bizarre and often tendentious take on events of British newspapers. A highlight of my day and Miranda’s giggles are the icing on the cake.”

“Wow this show has a lot of adverts.
Presumably it’ll go Patreon soon to cut them out but at the moment you need to listen with 40 second jump option near to hand
In between the adverts the show is pretty good”

“Don’t think it does what it claims - act as a substitute for daily papers. Nor is it a forensic analysis of articles like What the Papers Say. But it manages to be entertaining about selected highlights. It drops three (I think) days a week & I always listen right through to the end, so there...”Read full review »

“I’m no fan of onscreen broadcast paper reviews. Stale and often patronising. This however by contrast is informative and genuinely fun / funny. It has quickly become one of my favourites. Well done to all involved with it including your guests to date.”

“This is a moment when one pauses instead of feeding the frenzied lies about the said BBC host
I do hope you will apologise to the said host who has MH breakdown
As for the SUN tabloid I just hope they are sued and destroyed for their illegal methods
I have nothing but contempt for them”
