Interesting and insightful
Succinct and very well narrated podcast. Perfect length. And thoughtful editorials.
Great recap of major Swiss headlines
Love this podcast! As an English speaker, I especially appreciate the clear explanation of what is going on in Switzerland, how Swiss government is set up, and the latest voting results. Emily Breslin has a clear melodic voice that is easy to listen to.
