“It’s such a shame I used to love this podcast but I find it unlistenable now. The two Matts are unrelentingly critical of the Labour government for whatever it does. They are caught in a binary between fawning client journalism and criticising for the sake of criticising. So opt for the latter to...”Read full review »

“Kamala absolutely destroyed Brett Baier on Fox. Her performance was excellent against extremely hostile questions. Trump said he wouldn’t be interviewed by Brett on FOX! Trump at a Townhall says “who wants to hear questions, let’s turn it into music” then proceeds on stage to sway for 39 mins to...”Read full review »

“The platforming of Mullins lost all credibility for me. Can’t listen to these people as a result.
It wasn’t the fact he was interviewed but the lack of criticism and total respect for someone that kicks off by repeating lies and admiration for Farage without any challenge. Not questioning his...”Read full review »

“…. great you had Charlie Mullins on, but your comment in the follow-up that you’d never entertain Farage as it would ‘give him a platform’ was puzzling. He’s an elected politician so there’d be no need to pull your punches as you did with Mullins. What are you afraid of?”

“Loved this show for ages but a few things really starting to bug me. Has become a little lazy with some of the topics. Matt D seems to parrot what he has heard on Pod Save America.I thought Charlie Mullins was a great guest pick but they were just too credulous in the discussion. I feel there is...”Read full review »

As an indication of it’s quality they discussed the gay marriage debate without once mentioning the hatred that was directed at those campaigning for this endured. They also dropped a number of statements presented as fact with absolutely...”Read full review »

“I’ve loved this pod until tonight.
Matt D, the answer of proportional response is simple.
Did any of the children killed represent HAMAS?
What HAMAS did 7/10 was horrific.
It doesn’t give Isreal the right to blow up every school and university and attack hospitals.
If any race should know...”Read full review »

“Love this podcast, excellent content, always interesting.

Could you share the time a bit more fairly? I think it might...”Read full review »

“Held back on the review until until a true Prem Cru episode landed, as it did on todays Q&A.
K (rent-me? never!) and D’A (Jam-Side-Up,don’t y’know) knocked it out the park without trying, despite D’A’s hand wringing early doors in the episode.
The subject matter has often rankled, even for a...”Read full review »

For this reason you don’t get five stars. I think it fair of MA to question the Huw behaviour profile -...”Read full review »

“Regardless of the politics, it is never a good look when the host keeps calling the British PM an idiot repeatedly. Content and is good. If only we can have a civilised debate rather than making the whole episode sound like a rant. If only a little consideration is given to toning it down a little.”
