Americano is one of my favourite podcasts. Freddy Gray has a wonderful interview style. He gives his guests the room to speak while asking intelligent, gently probing questions. I wholeheartedly recommend listening

Don’t get me wrong this podcast gives alternative opinions, open debate and an intellectual counter arguments to mainstream media. But recently I’ve been put off by the lack of critical analysis of president trump. It’s almost painful.
Conspiracy tinged nonsense

The spectator has lost its way with this podcast, with guests amplifying baseless nonsense about the 2020 election being rigged and other assorted alt-right paranoid talking points, or views straight off trumps delusional twitter feed (RIP). Actually surprised the spectator indulges and amplifies obviously baseless nonsense. This podcast has drunk the alt-right Kool Aid. If that’s for you, then u may enjoy it
