“Absolutely brilliant podcast. Richard’s passion for this medium shines through. Nothing more entertaining than listening to someone talking about something they love. Marina was new to me, and she is equally as passionate and with a broad depth of knowledge and brilliant anecdotes that leave you...”Read full review »

“People employed in the traditional fields of media spoke out against Trump because truthful information NEEDED to be broadcast, and widely! One would hope any decent person with any kind of public platform would do the same. Does Marina honestly think that media personalities with good...”Read full review »

“I love the show, but it’s such a shame they couldn't both hide there disdain for the Trump win in the last episode, hints that if the 10’s of millions of Americans that voted for Trump were only as enlightened as them, that the world would be a better place… I like Marina’s insight into the...”Read full review »

“I’m not really particularly interested in media, showbiz etc but listen to this on the strength of the presenters.
Only downside is the frankly astonishing amount of time that is spent on adverts.”

“First of all, huge fan of the pod guys. I’ve worked in TV for a few years now and seeing as Deal or no deal has come back onto screens, there is just something that has always crossed my mind and I’m hoping Richard can clear this up for me…
How exactly does the production schedule work?...”Read full review »

“Love love the pod it’s my favourite.
However, this wine 52 promotion is a scam.
I signed up to try the “free” wine and they automatically signed you me up very stealthily to a £48 per month subscription which to cancel involved a 20 minute search through website the to a phone number where I...”Read full review »

“The pod would be four / five star but for the constant, repetitive, intrusive ads. I don’t mind ads. I listen to them on other podcasts knowing that’s the price I pay for free content. But the level of ads on this pod is beyond ridiculous. I especially hate the ads “disguised” as pod content...”Read full review »

But there are now too many adverts - it was my favourite pod but now I can’t listen to it (I like to doze off listening to podcasts, hearing so many irritating adverts means I go to the rest is history). Marina is superb, just such a shame that there’s 2mins of ads...”Read full review »

“The actually content, once you get to it, is entertaining, but ads, ads and more ads. At the beginning, at the end and in the middle. The same ads over and over again.
Now, there are ad-free options that, for some reason, are TWICE the cost of The Rest is Politics equivalent.”

“‘Naomi Campbell is NOT a nice person’
Marina Hyde is a goddamn savage and I love it. Richard Osman is a wealth of TV experience and both sound like you’d love to spend an hour with them in the pub.
Great stuff.”

“Fascinating insights, good conversation, witty, sharp, entertaining and very genuine in the content. Two hosts who you genuinely enjoy to spend time in the company of. However, still no discussion of the biggest question in showbiz: who shuffles the letters on Countdown? We’ll never know.”
