Troubled Waters

I started this six months ago and for some reason decided it was really important to listen from start to finish. In the last episode I listened to there was a song about June 10th and today is June 10th so I have decided this is a sign to write a review about how much Ive enjoyed listening to pop culture news from ten years ago. Funny funny show!

Pacey, structured delivery. Fun games. Potty-mouthed guests enabled by a skilled host. Alive to power, gender, sexuality and ethnicity. Comedy for grown ups who know what really matters between people.

This used to be one of my faves, it was rather jolly good when it had the Brits. Now it is still....... ok. Sorry.

International Waters used to be the highlight of my podcst listening, funny, a great host and great guests. When I heard it was going to be revamped as a new format I was disappointed but I figured hey - still the same great host (and he really is good) so let's reserve judgement. Sadly, after listening to all the subsequent episodes I have to admit it's just not the same. The original format worked so well but this just feels like a pale immitation of it unfortunately and the laughs just aren't there any more. I still listen but it's really not as much fun as it used to be. Damn.
