“I think I need to unfollow. It’s hard for me as I’m a creature of habit and the Briefing is my morning routine now. It started when the news broke that the King needed a Prostrate op and simultaneously Princess Kate had surgery. I’m no fan of Chuck and find the royals outdated but come on the two...”Read full review »

“Sad to be leaving a negative review given the podcast had become part of my morning ritual since COVID. Sadly the changes to the lineup this year have been to the detriment of the podcast. One of the new hosts in particular sounds in slow motion, and he can’t help but try and tell us what to...”Read full review »

“Poorly disguised opinion pieces around current affairs, broadly interspersed with editorial content which really should either be ads or at least have a level of disclosure.
When science topics are handled the information is out of date and cherry picked to allow the presenter to illustrate...”Read full review »

“Today’s ep was outrageously ageist.
I know Antoinette is going through some aggregeous discrimination right now, which is why I think she should be a bit more sensitive to it.
Bye Briefing.”

“Every single time inflation and the RBA is discussed the hosts insist on giving personal views that are often ignorant of how economics and higher inflation impact EVERYONE by making us all poorer. Therefore it is RIGHT to leave the RBA to do their job without you weigh in that’s so obviously...”Read full review »

“Have listened to the briefing every morning for years. Unfortunately the biased reporting, which reeks of racism from Tom Tilley is just disturbing. Today for example- the “concerning” news update re Israel/Gaza “war” was that Yemen shot some rockets.. a protest cry by a poor country with piddly...”Read full review »

“No way! We’ve seen time and again how police misuse the personal information of others. And if people don’t want to let police to access their phone camera does that mean they’re given less priority or not believed?”

“Dude just let Peter Dutton spout a bunch of BS, offered some resistance to the straight up lies about the voice being equivalent to the high court but then immediately rolled over and let him keep going. If you leave the interview on unchallenged lies you aren’t doing your job”

“So disappointed this morning to hear you provide a platform to Dutton. A known misinformation champion who walked out on the apology. What a huge shame that you support him to get his racists views to others. I’m no longer listening. Cop out.”

“I listen most days and find it really informative. I just want to say that I am an older Gen x and either I think like a younger person or you have got Gen x wrong. I have loads of friends who also think in the same way as milenials do.”

“Fantastic podcast <3
Tom doesn’t shy away from asking the tough questions.
So glad you didn’t change the format. Keep on being you.
McCafe ads make me sad. Coffee fit for an Aussie. Except us Coeliacs can’t have any, because they contaminate their machines with oat milk. We’re left out....”Read full review »

“Why didn’t you ask Thomas Mayo about his rant, “rent and reparations” or is this forbidden? Also why didn’t you ask about his fear mongering tactics after he said, “if we lose, aboriginal people will be worse off” or is impartiality dead?”

Otherwise great job.

Surely having chapters for people to jump...”Read full review »

Perfect length of time and snippet of what’s going on in the world, it is the way I consume my news. Thank you briefing team I have no notes!!”
