Customer Reviews
Fascinating podcast for anyone interested in defense
No matter the subject, you’re guaranteed to gain something from every episode - can’t recommend Defense One Radio enough. 🙌
Biased with foreign influence
Even in the reviews you can tell that bits are used as the good reviews offer superfluous language “like interesting and develops thinking,” whereas the non approving reviews actually go in to the detail of the episodes. This wreaks of foreign influence where on any given episode you will not here overtly negative reviews of china, Russia, and so on. However, there is a high criticality of US defense and government, as well as a focus on questionable “defense” issues such as sexuality and supposed RMVE infiltration.
Mediocre and biased
The show needs to recruit a new pool interviewees. Researchers in house are a great tool to craft questions and identify personalities to bring in on certain topic but interviewing your own researchers ends up feeling biased or at least one sided.
