Customer Reviews
I wish they were my friends
It’s like hanging out with the really smart cool people who typically have no time for a loser like me. Georgina and Emma always sound like they’re smiling. And the way Emma says “S” in UBS is like a hummingbird alighting for a micro-second on a sweet pea flower. And how many different ways can Georgina say “Mm?” There is no number big enough. Sometimes I lull myself to sleep repeating these two word again and again, complete with a Finnish accent: Markus Hippi. Markus Hippi. Markus Hippi. Swoon!!
Complete with skilled experts on various topics!
I’ve been looking for a general news podcast that would cover the most important headlines, and I found my happiness with this one! I recommand!
Great
I have been listening to Monocle for more than 5 years now. I love the content and the tone. Much better quality and substance than what is put out by our public broadcaster in Canada, the CBC. Who I find limiting and self-important.
