“The Inside Story is the best online forum for discussions of the conflicts in the Middle East, always inviting the best and most knowledgeable scholars and journalists to illuminate the current issues. Absolutely indispensable!”

“Voices of Participants are often so badly distorted by the communications media used that it is impossible to decipher what they are saying. For the listener this makes the whole discussion meaningless. You need to vet each podcast first. Those with severely distorted communication channels...”Read full review »

“I came to write a review about this issue and saw I’m not the only one thinking this; there are either too many guests, or the podcast episodes need to be longer to allow guests sufficient time to respond to complex issues/questions. I appreciate hearing views that are varied, and having options...”Read full review »

“Previous review (below) stands, but this podcast doesn’t update to show new episodes unless I go to the show and refresh several times. Apple needs to fix this!
Giving 5 stars because this is one of the most important sources of analysis and information we have available, but I agree with other...”Read full review »

“Why are there no new episodes? I hear in other Al Jazeera shows the promo of this show’s new episode, but they don’t show up here on the app. Can someone fix this?”

“I have gone through many news channels and have not found any information channel that was unbiased and reliable as Aljazeera is, the journalists, reporters, presenters are highly professional and the news is real, unlike the one sided news elsewhere.
I commend Aljazeera for their excellent...”Read full review »

“Great content, guests and questions.
Struggling to listen to the host, Adrian. He is very awkward with his mannerisms especially when trying to interrupting guests. I find it stressful to listen to as Adrian interruptions and so awkward and ineffective.”

“I want to hear these voices but it’s super awkward and disrespectful for the host to spend the episodes cutting guest off for time. The host starts interrupting with noises well in advance that are 100% to immersion breaking as a listener that literally causes listener anxiety. The host is asking...”Read full review »

“Its really bad form to tell your guests they dont have time repeatidly. Make the show longer. Have less guests. Its a podcast i dont see why your time is so limited. It makes the listener feel anxious to constantly hear you telling a guest to hurry.”

“Hamas could end the war and suffering tomorrow.
Lay down their arms
Release the hostages
Recognise Israel’s right to exist.
Hamas is the government of Gaza, responsible to look after the well-being of their citizens. Instead they have used aid to build tunnels, accumulate and fire rockets into...”Read full review »

“Hearing BLM guest referring to feeling empathy for the “oppressed” is hypocritical and I’ll informed. Most people of colour living in the West are not indigenous. The Israelites are indigenous to Israel, and 20% Israeli’s are Arab. Furthermore, many Jews in Israel are ppl of colour. It’s...”Read full review »

“It would probably be better to have fewer guests and give them more time to explicate. This is better than cutting them off. But good to see more balanced perspective than what we’re getting here in America.”

“Either you make it a longer episode or cut the number of guests you have on. Also don’t bring on Israeli talking heads that promote Israeli propaganda with no evidence. Enough that the west propaganda repeats their lies.”

“I’ve noticed this for a bit now, but it was especially apparent on your 12/6 episode. As soon as the guests started getting into anything substantial, the host cuts them off. It’s almost like he’s afraid to let them speak too much. Not a good look at all”

“I found Aljazeera is the only media in the world now broadcast truth without faking it. True journalism is there. I avoid watching US media, CNN, MSNBC and Specifically fake news channel Fox.”

“This shown is nothing more than one-sided anti-Israeli propaganda show. The panel is never balanced and often comes to conclusions that are not shared to by more neutral commentators. Most telling is that the owners of Al Jezerra are financial backers of Hamas.”

“Half the episode is the host butting in to cut off his guests: ”Eh-hem”, “Uh, excuse me”. What’s the point of having three guests if you don’t give them time to speak?
Either trim the list of guests or go long form. This format is grating to the listener.”

“Your invited guests would all say Xi is being surrounded by yes men. I wonder if you are only selecting yes men among your guests to get your points of view across? Is it possible to be more inclusive? More differring view points?”

“Gave a 1 star because of your latest episode in Spanish Moroccan relations. The independence claims of the sahara region do not come from that region itself but from a terrorist militia located in Tindouf, Algeria and is purely political rather than a human rights issue. The people in the...”Read full review »
