Lack of depth and understanding
26 May
Recent Enhanced games segment revealed a lack of understanding of what the issues are from a number of the contributors. While probably not malicious, ignorance and only superficial understanding, and was unfortunately conveyed with false confidence and without challenge. While I’m sure listeners want fresh and relevant topics, the show should consider if contributors are genuinely expert enough, and their views interesting enough, to add to the debate or if they are doing more harm than good.
Depends on the guests
21 Mar
I love the week and generally this podcast is good with guests who are balanced, but more and more the guests just bring an agenda with them and only the host Ollie seems to challenge the generally very left week thinking. Please please stop having Elizabeth Carr-Ellis on the show, she clearly has an agenda for every story and does what the week stands for a disservice.
Phrasing
29/12/2023
The presenter (Olly Mann) said that Hamas attacked Israel and Israel 'besieged' Gaza. 20,000 Gazans have been killed by Israel. Israel did a lot more than besiege. Words matter. Olly's phrasing is incredibly disrespectful to Palestinians.
