Customer Reviews
Brilliant, engaging and entertaining series
A must listen for anyone who is hungry for nuanced and well thought out arguments for all the topics that matter to us most as a civilisation.
Fresh, open minded and humorous
A well done, well researched series. I like it a lot, even though I am not a Pommie, or live in the UK
Piers Morgan interview was toady tripe
really pathetically bad
