Customer Reviews
Best podcast
Very well researched and presented current affairs news
Facts until opinion’s show up
I was hooked so long as this show gave me news without opinion. Liz Mathew’s dissection of PM’s Independence Day speech was unnecessary and reeked of opinion.
Crisp and informative
Keeps you updated on the latest news along with brief analysis.
