Klantrecensies
So gratifying
I am listening to Today in Focus for years already which says enough in itself. The detail attention is great and the production quality is excellent. Subjects are not always interesting, but hey, you can skip those (which is seldom)
Last but not least are the presenters which I find are always top notch an to the point.
You may have to be a lefty liberal like me to fully enjoy the content but I am happy to share that this great podcast will bring some joy and enlightment if you are like me!
Live well and prosper
Minder interessant geworden
Jammer dat Anoushka weg is. Sinds haar vertrek is het echt minder interessant geworden.
Trafficking
Very impressive, and, to be honest, disturbingly emotional.
