“This is one of the few American shows that regularly covers international news and politics. John’s coverage of China and Russia is unmatched.”

“Please eliminate the previews or put them in their own category. It’s messing up the rotation.”

“The Previews are not useful to the listener trying to listen to the actual show.
Perhaps all Previews could be put into a different Podcast category. They interfere with listening currently.”

“Enjoyed Cliff May’s clear-sighted global survey. Very temperate, rational and balance of power focused. I’d like to hear his view on whether Mahanian maritime strategy should still inform our navy deployments IVO the vast Pacific being the likely next ( or additional) theater.”

“The show is one of the most informative center right podcasts out there and I love to listen when I can. However the strange format of listing the episodes backwards makes it very difficult to listen to. I don’t want to have to scroll through my phone every 5-10 minutes to play the episodes in...”Read full review »

“John Bachelor is one of America’s few remaining public intellectuals. But I just can’t deal with the podcast any longer. Breaking features into short segments and then loading them in reverse order is ridiculous. I’m typically working while listening and having to stop every few minutes to locate...”Read full review »

“Mr Bachelor really needs to cease and desist with lurid editorializing show headlines “ripped from the news “ BUT which have absolutely NOTHING to do with program content.
If he wants to editorialize then he should do it rather than bastardizing show headlines.

“John is great, show is awesome. Very informative and covers so many interesting subjects. I also love the classic radio tonality to John’s voice.
But…whoever is posting the segments this way needs to seriously rethink their strategy. It’s unlistenable. For example, the interviews are posted in...”Read full review »

“I have listened to John Batchelor off-and-on since 2007. My bona fides: Midnight, the Stars, and You” was often his buffer music at that time. I do not understand the 8 to 15 minute segment format. It is like the Babylon Bee said, “What long-form, spoke word, thoughtful person could we use as the...”Read full review »

“Grateful for the secular perspectives of some that ascribe most stellar and biological discoveries as Darwinian; I use their lexicon as a primer for rebuttal. If space can start to curl or bend, what a wonderful rejoinder to “...it shall roll up like a scroll “.”

“John, would someone please read this?

“John is a true gentleman. He is fair-minded, highly informed, and never insulting or combative or mud-slinging. Yet he is very strong in controlling the quality of his show. I have the greatest respect for him and know of no other podcast host like him. I hope he lives to be 200.”

“Once I heard John call himself "CBS ... " I knew his show would lean more left. There is no mention of the 2020 election audits, push for voter ID. I guess all the illegal immigrants and Afghan refugees get to vote with no voter ID. USA elections are a total sham without real state...”Read full review »

“Nobody does an author interview like John B. He has so many qualities lacking today - like dignity, generosity, kindness, and humility. I have leaned so much from him over 20 years now.

“I’ve been listening to John Batchelor for years. I even wrote a techno thriller (“The Prometheus Option”) based on an interview he did with an expert on China’s plans to supplant the US as the dominant world power by 2049. His interviews are always lucid, trenchant, and insightful. Don’t miss JB!”
