Enjoyable, but I do miss Owen and Ned

OK so this is a review of one episode, but it’s a top class one that sets the standard for the podcast. Well known strong character and man with great political intelligence, Charlie Falconer meets equally impressive, less experienced (but you wouldn’t know it from hearing this episode) Salma Shah; his perfect foil. The conversation is expertly managed by the Huffpost podcast journalists / commentators. And they all appear to be having fun as they give us all extra insights into this most serious of dramas: the tragedy that is Brexit.

I’m not a natural Huff Post reader, but I’ve been with this podcast from (nearly) the start and I love it. It’s a clever, entertaining, well-balanced show that brings together journalistic heavyweights like Paul Waugh with shining stars such as Arj Singh and regular guests. If you want to broaden your news provider palate, or just really enjoy a good quality politics podcast, give it a go. Really, really bad theme music though. Please change?
