Kundenrezensionen
Good, punchy, informative news
Why I enjoy this podcast? I come away from each episode with a good grasp of the topic discussed; topics not often explored in the media. Plus, the tone agrees with me – sharp and humorous without feeling lightweight. Cheers to the team at the Signal!
