35 mins episodes

35 mins episodes are so much better than the ones that go on for hours. Our lives are busy enough we haven’t got time to listen for hours, just quick 35 mins episodes are just perfect 😁

Best podcast of the week....

Listened to the podcast from the beginning, highlight of my week and keeps me updated with politics back home from Sydney. My heart sinks when I hear Grant Tucker in for Iain, I usually stop listening. That aside, I great podcast.

Boring and predictable

It was once a must listen but it’s now past its prime. A tired and formulaic yawnfest.

Jacqui doing privileged boss-girl feminism and Iain plugging the latest pamphlet he’s knocked up over the weekend.

So much time telling each other how funny and rude they are, but not actually being very funny. And the rudeness is basically a couple of nun joke from the 90’s.

It lost its charm about 18 months ago. Time to put it out its misery.
