Interesting topics and analyses with Roland Oliphant asking great questions with solid unbiased reporting. (5 stars). Venetia Rainey presents biased antisemitic somewhat untruthful and over emotional reporting an almost leading questions creates a podcast hard to listen to.
Good daily brief

A largely balanced, focused and articulate analysis of the many issues we should all be paying attention to. As an analyst in the IndoPacific I love that it does reference CHN but would be great if more discussion is had re India and Indonesia. Great podcast. Keep the fantastic work up, much appreciated.
