“Yea, I turned you off as I was actually voting but you walked me there and home. (One one person in line in front of me) Now to listen to more bugle episodes and drink heavily for a few weeks …. Until someone is determined to be the winner or civil war.
Thanks for everything!”

“Love The Bugle and hate the show Taskmaster. Wish you the best of luck Andy but cannot support that television pollution. Please ask John Oliver for some work if you need some money.”

“One of the most biased podcasts I’ve ever listened to. There’s nothing inherently wrong with that I suppose as long as you are transparent about it but, they aren’t. If you deviate partially right, don’t listen but you’d probably not have gotten as far as this review either way.”

“Please don’t go down the subscription route, I’ve donated when I could but I can’t afford to do it every week. I’ve listened to every episode, please don’t make everyone pay so that, by the time most people listen to it, everything you talk about is out of date. Otherwise the best podcast ever. Xx”

“The Bugle is the best of the best. Words truly cannot describe how funny and relevant this podcast is. When I’m in depressive slumps- the Bugle ALWAYS has a way of making me laugh. It’s like watching reruns of your favourite television show- only better, because it features some new people every...”Read full review »

“I miss the American, the cryptic crossword (I was the one who wrote in about an error in it, which Andy felt was harsh, sorry), hotties from history, and especially amazing listener submitted emails and remixes and musical compositions. What talent from the listenership! Will Indy’s “Am Kaftan...”Read full review »

“Scarily, the lies that Andy and guests make up are more credible and logical than the world they are satirising. Always enjoy a new episode, and will often go back many years to hide from the present. Sadly running out of back catalogue. Where’s the Time Machine to create more old episodes?”

“I guess, decide for yourselves, but for my (🇨🇦) money it’s one of the best out there. And forgetting Andy, his guests are also brilliant. Alice, Nish, Nato and Harry in particular (though in no particular order) are world class great. Keep it up you guys. And thanks!”

“The British comedian/commentator Andy Zaltzman and his guests discuss current events in Andy’s shed. Ok, usually the guests aren’t actually in the shed with him, but the show does have the feel of a casual conversation one might have over a beer with friends, provided those friends are incredibly...”Read full review »

“How many times listening through every episode is too many?
The early years (up to season 2) with Andy and John are the best, but the guest appearances from season 3 are also very good.”

“Usually a fun UK perspective on current events. Unfortunately Andy’s guests sometimes just espouse Progressive bigotry, negativity and meanness. But Andy avoids piling on and can find humor in nearly all situations. At a minimum, you’ll hear the best (and worst) wordplay of any podcast.”

“Truly wonderful satire and whacky humour that, once you get to know it, will have you waiting for the next episode with a sense of longing, like for a long-lost weird but quite wonderful friend… Andy & 2 guests + producer Chris really make life better & more fun, every week.”

“This show is my lifeblood for understanding the world's incredibly dreary happenings. I was sad when John Oliver had to stop being on it but Andy has done an amazing job with rotating comics. It has also exposed me to so many new comics that I now seek out their comedy: Alice Fraser, Nish...”Read full review »

“Longest-lasting podcast (at 15 years) at least that I’ve been listening to, from back in the dark days when nobody knew what a podcast was. And for good reason: intelligent, subversive, hilarious recap of the last week(s) from “the audio newspaper for a visual world”.
With the center of gravity...”Read full review »
