Hard to believe a year end review of BC would not discuss the largest provincial expense, health care, and how that is going… Overall, subtly one-sided and uniformed. I did try for six months of this, hoping for more.

Very informative podcast. Just listened to “broken bc”, here’s hoping that provincial politics get mended soon!

The hosts have an intelligent and unbiased discussion of whatever is most important in BC and Canadian politics every week. It is entertaining and enlightening.

The best Canadian podcast from the west. The Strategists have nothing on Ian and Scott!

Great show. Very informative. I would strongly suggest some editing to eliminate the pauses, hmmms, and aaaaahs.

I listened today for the first time since many months and realized why I stopped listening, I’ll try again when the hysteria is over.

Im not sure why there are so many pauses but its very awkward to listen to. Maybe it’s the format they have due to covid but I wish they were more in tune with each other.

One sided commentary peppered with downright false information. Apparently WCB is “successful” and treats people fairly yeah ok.

It’s exciting to hear a local political podcast, you guys have really done this well, thank you! I look forward to hearing your perspective on the latest in BC and Canadian politics. Finally, I’m not just listening to American political podcasts!

Love this show. Thanks for the great political chatter with a B.C. perspective

I look forward to these every week. Thoughtful critiques (and commendations, when earned) on all things British Columbia and beyond. Definitely need to get on that patreon subscription to see what’s happening on the slack channel too

Since practically day one, I have enjoyed Scott and Ian‘s intellectually honest takes on what’s going on in provincial and national politics. Their guests are equally intelligent and together they provide a wonderful alternative to traditional politics coverage where talking-points dominate the...Read full review »

Highly recommended to anyone who is interested in what is going on in BC politics. Just put you earplugs in and suddenly your informed! Why our regular news programs, especially on CBC, can’t cover these issues is beyond me. Great stuff.

Enjoyable to listen to the local chaos and the impact on BC residents. Often less than a hour and you’re up to the date with the provincial politics.

It is so hard to find local news and commentary. These folks do a great job of following what’s happening in the province.

Balanced, thoughtfu, well put together and a wide variety of guests. Give it a listen if you want to stay up to date on BC & Canadian politics.

Stopping reading about Trump and american politics that barely affect your life and start learning more about BC politics that matter. Scott and Ian give a balanced, non-partisan view.
Josh From Burnaby via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/26/18
Really appreciate how both hosts manage to mostly focus on the issues, and how in general the voting bases of the respective parties view a given issue. Didn’t enjoy recent guest who was a partisan hack but otherwise every show has been great. I miss best of bc poli! Moar!

Finding BC political podcasts that are not run by CBC is great. Politicoast helps me understand the news in a informative and funny way. Ian's soothing voice and Scott's reasonable takes are a great match.Read full review »

Great podcast. An antidote to the chaos that is left coast politics.
sprocks via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/20/18
It makes me happy that people like ian and scott exist

Two dudes and their guests drinking beer and talking about politics in a way that you can understand. Better yet, it doesn't seem like they are influenced by any coperate masters. I have been listening for about three/four months and I enjoy this podcast weekly. Keep up the great work fellas!Read full review »

I teach Socials in a Vancouver school and I prescribe this podcast cause it's smart and relevant.Read full review »

Glad to have a podcast directly addressing hyper-local political issues, for those times when you just can't drag your m friends out for an hour of weedsy analysis over beers. I like the interviews, and that the hosts are clear about their own knowledge gaps.Read full review »

This pod is a mix of everything I like in my political coverage. They interview experts, share their personal opinions and discuss a wide range of topics. Their coverage of the BC 2017 election was on point and I look forward to more great content!

Charone here from the Habeas Humor podcast. Smart guys, very interesting political analysis. (And I think saying aboot is kinda hot)
@CharoneF via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/17
Worth listening to if you have an interest in the issues that touch BC and some Canadian politics issues more broadly. Sharp analysis
Get wind via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/15/17
Detailed, well produced, well informed. Well worth listenting

This podcast is a really great outline for the lack of Canadian political podcasts (unlike our southern neighbours). Keep it up!!
Elizabeth Burnhill via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/05/17
Balanced and informative. It is good to support independant Canadian political podcasts.
ThomasHamer via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/28/17
Great find! So few podcasts cover Canadian politics at all, and none other than you cover B.C. With an election coming up that seems odd. Great to see your work. One suggestion is you sometimes frame your opinion as if it were a fact. We all have political bias, that isn't a bad thing. Maybe...Read full review »

Very few independent podcasts cover Canadian politics and even fewer (if any?) cover BC. We started this to hopefully help fill that gap. We hope you like it!
