Good, but PLEASE learn how to pronounce things!
This podcast would be excellent were it not for the endless mispronunciation of common English words! On the Andes plane crash episode: I do wish the main journalist telling the story knew how to pronounce ‘fuselage’, it’s incredibly irritating as she says it incorrectly throughout! Similarly, Marylebone is pronounced MAH-lebone not Marrilibone; I realise that that may be difficult for non-Londoners to get their heads round but it’s hardly complicated. Finally, the word “something” does NOT end in a “k”! Errors like these are extremely jarring to listen to, especially on words that are repeated throughout an episode and they create a general atmosphere of not being quite as professional or knowledgeable as you should be.

The topics vary and so inevitably it’s a mixed bag but Manveen Rana and David Aaronovitch are invariably excellent. One of the better middle of the road current affairs podcasts.

Firstly needs to be under 20 mins. The one with David Aaronovitch was very good, he is an excellent presenter, the rest have been unremarkable. Please get better soon as it could be so good for The Times if it were done well.
