“I‘m a regular listener of TiF and it’s always time well spent. Particular praise for today‘s episode about Germany! Perfectly explained and the guests Regina Steffens and John Kampfner were excellent. A special shoutout to the host Helen Pitt (I think?) and her very good pronunciation of German...”Read full review »

“i love this podcast and regularly look out for it. unfortunately i’m compelled to point out that the way you’ve been reporting two presidential candidates is far from neutral or unbiased.
even the reporters interviewed camouflage rather disparaging and unbecoming adjectives when it comes to one...”Read full review »

“Plenty focus on Netanyahu's critique of the UN in its many roles, almost nothing of the reasons why Guterres, Spain and Ireland have criticized (only top line descriptions were offered) and so incurred Netanyahu's wrath.”Read full review »

“I think this podcast is generally excellent - like many of the 5 star reviews - and I am a Guardian supporter. It does important work and is engaging and wide-ranging. My one issue over the years is that often, it doesn’t answer the question it poses or centre the title it suggests. Normally this...”Read full review »

“Next time invite a scientist. No reason to deal with such excruciating symptoms with the right diet. I feel Fodmap diet being a sidenote in this episode was very poor science as it is the only thing scientifically proven to help. Not telling people to cut down on foods that make it difficult for...”Read full review »

“Don’t miss the Lucy&Archie show! Between Archie’s droll resignation to the chaos he’s covering and Lucy’s witty yet sympathetic sotto voce lines of enquiry (and reliable one liners), this nugget of election coverage leaves you informed and amused. Nice work team. 👌”

I’m struck by the parallels with the Horizon IT scandal: incompetence, greed, complete disregard for the health and safety of other. “Today in focus” probably did an episode on that as well, I need to look it up !”
