I’ve enjoyed hearing the views from different parts of the political Spectrum over the years but presenting Lee Anderson as lovable rogue left me feeling uneasy. Recent events have cemented that feeling.

So great to have you back in my ear ‘oles, Matt! I think you are such a great interviewer. I always find it fascinating to hear political figures who I really don’t agree with opening up to you about themselves, their lives, their values and where they’ve come from. You bring the human side back...Read full review »

Every episode is interesting and insightful, an excellent podcast to ensure to hear from all sides of the political spectrum and people you wouldn’t have thought about reading up on.

Hope you’re getting better Matt, loved the podcast for the last couple of years but these replays due to your op have been brilliant.

Get well soon Matt

I’ve been listening for years. Thanks Matt and all the best with your treatment.

Great guests, great questions, great man!
Dizdazdoz91214 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/10/23
I always like the array of guests Matt introduces. It’s a great opportunity to just hear a political obsessive indulge their interest, without letting political tribes get in the way.

Political and a good laugh
Tikonotlim via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/09/23
I am very interested in politics and this show makes it so much easier to digest large amounts of politics easily. Matt is a great host and although I don’t fully agree with his politics he is funny and insightful in the podcast. The long episodes fly by!

great interviewer, so knowledgeable.

Great pod Matt, thanks - really entertaining

The fake crowd laughs does get irritating.
Mhhdbdb124 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/04/23
Use to listen to this podcast weekly and thought it was quite good. Sadly the guests have become less about about politics and more about the axes they want to grind. After a break I listened to the Margaret Beckett interview. Turned off as she was so rude, mean and everything I thought a...Read full review »

Matt really is a fan of politics and gets right to the point with the questions I’m wondering and the things I’m not informed enough to wonder. All while keeping it funny and being ready to laugh.

This is the best podcast I’ve ever heard but Matt ford kissed my wife

Loved the recent episode with Johanna: what a lovely, genuine, principled lady
Amfbkk via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/31/23
Cracking interview Matt but she sounded too frantic and highly strung. I couldn’t understand why she kept bursting into laughter. What was so funny?
D7T7 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/31/23
Absolutely love the show, especially when you do the live shows, you’ve had some phenomenal guests on. Keep up the amazing content
Reverend Cleminson via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/24/23
Matt you are brilliant with great guests look forward Jess
fyanstown3 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/22/23
Matt Forde does a great job balancing lots of details and getting a feeling of the broad character of his guests. Plus he gets a surprisingly wide variety of people on the show.
very good life via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/18/23
Amazing podcast with great interviews. I thought it couldn’t get any better and then the host made a Lindsay Hoyle impersonation. Fantastic!
aquino.gabriel via Apple Podcasts · Brazil · 02/13/23
Really enjoy these long form interviews, which aren’t searching for the gotcha viral content you find on most broadcast media. There have been people on all parts of the spectrum who I’ve reassessed after listening to interviews with them on here. And even if I don’t agree with them, it’s that...Read full review »

Matt, fantastic podcast thank you. Every episode is entertaining and very informative to me, as I have become much more politically aware since listening to your shows. After many years of “herd voting”, your podcasts have made me realize I need to give my vote some serious thought. The lighter...Read full review »

The Political Party is consistently a hugely entertaining podcast which can be enjoyed by those of who who consider ourselves to be political connoisseurs and normal people alike! Matt Forde is at the top of his profession in terms of stand-up and impersonations, and the Duchess Theatre shows (I...Read full review »

I tried to listen to these two episodes, however ten minutes of that thoroughly horrible Thornberry woman was enough for me.
Graeme Taylor via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/29/22
Often superb. Have been subscribed for a good two years and it keeps getting better. There have been some brilliant interviews, Gordon Brown was one of the best. And he’s taking on some non-politicians as well. Always current, often hilarious. Hope Matt gets Matt Green on soon as he’s doing some...Read full review »

....to hear an interviewer who really makes their guest feel at ease and speak freely. Matt is a genius at bringing out the best - and the worst and it makes for informative, really amusing and unusual content. The comparison between his interview with David Dimbleby and others that are...Read full review »

A really great podcast which has amazing guests. I think Matt really humanises his guests & doesn’t ram his beliefs (left-leaning which I hold) onto the listeners. I realise I have more respect for tories like Cleverly & Shapps than I realised, purely because of their political beliefs I...Read full review »

Spooky- a fellow Blairite and footy fan. I have the same personality type as Matt and he could be a brother from another mother.
foz*1964 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/07/22
One of my favourite podcasts. Matt Forde is so sharp and well informed and turns politics into a great vaudeville event as well as a really in-depth interview.
annefnt via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/05/22
Very illuminating as he relaxes guests sufficiently to reveal the real person behind the public persona.
Runruss via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/30/22
Very funny and great insight into the guests. Recommend.
The AKJ via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/26/22
I’m not interested in every guest, so I store them and pick and choose. Like a middle aged wild man I’ve just smashed a bunch on my holiday in Ibiza, and honestly had a great time. Holidays may have changed but this helps the slow decline seem manageable.
Veryjamesbond via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/01/22
There are too many podcasts to be able to listen to them all. Make this one a priority. You won’t be disappointed. Intelligent, funny and downright brilliant - Matt Forde is all of these things, and more.
