Customer Reviews
Vent, vent - ikke si det!
Ja, dette er virkelig bra radio! Et enda bedre konsept enn Nytt på nytt. Og en flott måte å holde engelsken ved like på. NPR har også et bra sportsprogram, All Things Sport.
Genialt!
Et genialt game-show som troner på toppen av min liste over de morsomste podcastene på iTunes. Førsteplassen deles forøvrig med "Friday Night Comedy" fra BBC Radio 4 ;)
Grunnen til at jeg gleder meg til mandagen
Bare det morsomte, smarteste nyhetsprogrammet
