Customer Reviews
I’m an Australian up in the bleachers.
Thank you Lawrence, your calm, thorough reports are brilliant. As an Australian I am only an observer of the US political scene. I can’t help but comment that I find it the best entertainment in town. Thank you again for clarifying all the sometimes scary, fractured details.
Stupendous
I love it when Lawrence spits ‘stupid’ with the portentous disgust utterly deserved by his purported subject. Makes my hour every time I hear it!
A fan from Oz
As an Irish Australian I have learned so much about American politics from you Mr O’Donnell, I absolutely love your show. You shoot from the hip and your experience in the White House shines through,and,is a great asset to the work you do.
I’m on the edge of my seat now waiting for the final results of the midterm elections, and hoping the results will put and end to Trumps influence on the republicans party.
