Good potential

The podcast is good and the summary from court is interesting, but they keep going between first names and last names which makes it a bit hard to follow who they are talking about. If would be much easier to follow if they just referred to the first names

Not good

I am very interested in this case unfortunately this podcast is mainly ads, repetition of the same points and when it does have new information it is days old so I’ve already read about it.

Well presented but not fast enough

When an episode drops it’s great but so far this week two days of the trial have passed and still no update here. Rather than read news.com.au I’d hoped I could get the facts here.
