Customer Reviews
Brilliant daily podcast
I look forward to listening to Lawrence’s analysis of current political issues on my morning run.
Can’t recommend it highly enough.
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!
