    Excellent view into UK politics.
    As a Brit living in the USA I love this podcast because it reminds me how thankful i am not to be living in the post Brexit apocalypse.

    Favorite Podcast
    My new favorite podcast. I am an Anglophile living in Los Angeles, and I never completely understood how parliament works. This podcast is fantastic!! Informative and super funny. A great entertaining way to understand both current events and history.

    Brilliant Deep Dives
    The great thing about this show is that it respects Westminster politics enough to think deeply about it—yes, on the level of recent events but also examining the system that creates and reports them. The host also has a way of obtaining and featuring delicious quotes from his guests. These deep dives are what I recommend for people who want to know both the ‘what’ and the ‘why’ of UK politics.

    Great show, but could have more women on?
    Always enjoy this pod, but can we have some more female guests? Season 2 has been a pretty all-male affair so far…. Big fan otherwise, particularly enjoyed the Johnny Mercer episode

    Insightful look at Westminster, but with a different focus to the norm
    If you were a fan of Jack’s newsletters, or missed them entirely, you’re likely to enjoy his foray into the world of podcasting. The pilot forayed from Ancient Rome to Renaissance Marseille, while S1E1 was very much on home territory, but each left the listener with a better understanding of the political landscape and 21st century journalism, as well as some fascinating tidbits - like the etymology of the word ‘quarantine’ - all aided and abetted by top-tier guests. I’m very much looking forward to the rest of the series.
