Thanks for this addition! Will miss the competitive hilarity between Claire and Kate, but the fact the latter is taking the title to her leave is fabulous. There might need to be a bonus round each time to pay homage to the reigning champ.

If the word mellifluous was a person, that person would be Andrew. What a wonderful addition to the team, his voice and his unique perspective are a welcome melody to my morning routine.

This podcast is repeating the Trump administration’s propaganda without any meaningful fact checking or analysis.

Love listening to this quick news roundup every morning and Andrew’s arrival has given the show a real boost - he’s brought fresh energy, his own informed insights + some extra personality to the format. Great work!

I really enjoy The Squiz ! Claire, Kate, Alice, Siobhan and now Andrew make me smile while keeping me up to date on the world at large. As someone who turned off TV news about a decade ago, this is what works for me now. Dare I say it’s ‘a joyful way to get your news’

I am a regular listener and I enjoy the effort to condense a lot of news into a small format. But, I sometimes tune out when Clare is announcing. She has a very annoying turn of phrase and I wish she would just speak in an active voice and get to the point instead of trying to say things in a clever way. Maybe stay in the management side of the pod and leave the rest of the excellent presenters to do their jobs.

The Squiz is great, however, since the move to two feeds they do this annoying thing where they advertise the show you’ve just listened to on the other feed, having lured you into thinking you’re listening to an episode of the show. This is such a waste of my time and I feel it’s totally unnecessary. Just have one feed or do not plug the one on the other. It’s so annoying for long time listeners.

The BHP greenwashing ads are questionable but the new AirBNB ad is just plain offensive. It also makes no sense, am I supposed to feel sorry for the single mother who works two jobs so she can pay the mortgage on her second property which she puts on Airbnb? Those of us stuck in the rental crisis nightmare can see an easily solution to that problem

I love this podcast and listen every morning for the balanced reporting on key news stories. I understand the need for advertising but was very disappointed to get a whiff of BHP sponsors affecting news content with the reporting on tech’s use of nuclear and highlighting that nuclear is emissions free and that renewables can’t deliver around the clock. I am no expert however there was no mention of CSIRO’s findings that there is no economic justification for the use of nuclear. I just did a quick google on BHP’s position on nuclear and found that BHP are trying to lift the ban on nuclear in Australia. Very disappointing Squiz! Please keep the lines between advertising and news content seperate!

Absolutely cannot stand all the greenwashing ads for BHP
