Out of all of the ABC programs for left wing indoctrination, this program is a little bit more moderate. Unfortunately in Australians are funding an unbalanced public broadcaster.

Some of these stories may slip under the radar, these issues often contain useful information and may not be covered by other news outlets and Radio National gives you in-depth coverage about each topic which is great. Radio National also produces interviews which I really like because there are...Read full review »

She is brings an ‘easy to listen to’ and less aggressive style to the program, yet still getting the answers from her guests. I hope we get more of her. I’ve always loved her when she was an overseas correspondent.

An outstanding interview today (17th Jan ‘24), with former HRW chief re ABC’s sacking of Antoinette Lattouf. This is a very welcome change after months of ABC capitulation to Zionist lobby pressure. Israel has every to respond to Hamas terrorist attacks in a proportionate and targeted fashion. ...Read full review »

I can’t believe I’m forced to fund the biased garbage with my tax dollars.

The ABC is always careful to interview people from different parties or groups, sometimes not asking crucial questions for fear of yet more funding cuts. People who are conservative or denialists have the popular , mostly Murdoch Press and TV channels to disseminate the at times conspiratorial...Read full review »

Good to hear Patricia holding politicians to account. Excellent interview today with Karen Andrew

Being a conservative what has the ABC got for me. Since PK has taken over from Fran she has made it very clear that she no Liberal party. Going back to John Howard days it was quite clear. Where is the natualality, the even handed. The headline says it all.Bryan

When Fran left I was sad and missed her, and didn't think that Patricia was as good, but now I think she is great and does a really good job with her interviews. Sometimes is just takes a little time to let go of the old and embrace the new!Read full review »

Vapid, all about agreement with the view point of the speaker. I used to really like this show.

Concerned about the commercialisation of the ABC podcasts what’s the point of listening if it’s just like private media? Don’t compete be the point of difference. It’s wrecking it!
Asswin via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/27/22
The death of Liz Windsor (slave wealth billionairess) has turned the ABC into no more than a State propaganda outfit. Karvelas as the Aussie Ri Chun Hui (though a tad less funny). Enforced far-right Royalist ideology almost 24/7 in 2022! How atrocious. The ABC has destroyed its reputation.

Thanks for covering the pressing issues of the day.
User40342 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/21/22
Like a lot of the ABC shows these days the quality has dropped, and the journalists are more aiming for opinion activism rather than reporting hard news which the abc used to pride itself on. In general their focus is always on attacking the Coalition and covering / spinning for Labor mistakes....Read full review »

Fran Kelly, was far more impartial that Partricia Karvelas. You can tell what Partricia thinks by how much she interrupts. If Partricia agrees, she is silent, as a mouse. If Partricia disagrees, the interviewee cannot get a word in. It is the, 'Partricia Karvelas', Show. Do not pay any...Read full review »

These individual podcast episodes make it easy to digest the news each day at a time that suits me. (It would be great if it included the daily sports update as well.)
rowvent via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/02/21
Best coverage of the day. Maybe change the Short Episodes photo so it’s different to the full episode one? PLEASE remove the jingle between each episode. Really annoying.
Wendy LG via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/30/21
Really tired of lack of policy from Coalition and spin and waffle from them all. “Record funding in education” repeated continually doesn’t tell the full story. They use semantics to trick and mislead. I miss proper, intelligent political discussion from an era prior to the ‘Abbott disruption.’...Read full review »

Finally an interviewer that knows how to drill down when a politician tries to evade answering questions. I hope we see more of Norman in this role.

Love to listen to RN while driving to work, however it could be better if it can be streamed to the same day on postcard. Feels strange to listen to yesterday’s new everyday....

Hamish you’re a pleasure to listen to.
sylvi.bilby via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/13/20
I like Hamish, good ABC supports diversity😀
GWEN010101 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 09/24/20
Love RN breakfast but due to my work can’t listen in the morning. Recently this podcast has stopped including the updates I hang out for - politics with Michelle Grattan, world news with Matt Bevan, sport with Warrick Hadfield et al. Please start uploading them consistently again!

Hamish is just a stinker
tnhtnhtnh via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/01/20
I love the individual story feed of the show but lately many of the episodes cut off before the segment has finished which is very frustrating.
Fibrologic via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/21/20
Great podcast but recently the end of most episodes are cut off before they have finished. It’s been going on for a few weeks now, PLEASE FIX IT!
CurrawongSong via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/06/20
Great source of in-depth news. Just far too slow to update these days. Been 24hours behind all week. ABC Listen app for me.
timjim999 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/27/20
The ends of many of these separate stories podcasts have been cut off in recent days - often in mid sentence. Could you have someone fix this?
RobinDots via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/27/20
My new go to podcast for news. I think you need to update the picture though!
Moviesinsydney via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/16/20
Anybody but this vain, arrogant presenter. We call him the cleaner because whatever channel on TV or publication he works for is trashed, removed and avoided, if he’s involved. Sorry project.
Flogger11 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/20/19
Unlike our politicians RN mostly tells it like it is, takes all party's to task evenly with little political bias. Sadly religion gets a free run, and the quite secular Australians are never given a voice. Still one of my favourite podcastRead full review »

Can someone at the ABC please change the tile on this podcast to Fran. We put up with Hamish for most of 2018! Have you guys lost the file?
Ex Jobseeker via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/24/19
Love this podcast cos it allows me to keep track of the major headlines when I don’t keep up with reading the news. Occasionally and this week it’s happened twice with Dowry Abuse story and Morrison on Bourke St incident, the wrong audio is linked with the story title. Pls fix to otherwise...Read full review »

オーストラリアを旅してみて、オーストラリア英語は基本はブリティッシュだが、イギリス英語とアメリカ英語の中間に位置すると感じた。独特の訛りはあるが、今の私の英語学習には欠かせない番組である。比較的聞き取りが容易で内容もバラエティーに富むこの番組の大ファンになりました。
オリオンthe三つ星 via Apple Podcasts · Japan · 10/01/18
The best guests (expert panel on Friday is amazing keep it up!) and some amazing (and broad) focus on policy unmatched by any podcast. Fran Kelly’s political insight is astounding! Only complaint is some frankly out-of-date commentary on renewables and reliability and a bit of uncritical...Read full review »

I thought of writing toSMH in response to Liberal party resolution to sell off the ABC with list of reasons to treasure ABC.Rather than reasons it would probably have been a list of names and titles(egEmployable Me) and Hamish McDonald would have been near the top. Such an example of what is fine...Read full review »
