Reviews

4.3 out of 5 stars from 57 ratings
  • Always engaging, always learn something

    Even when I think I dislike someone or thoroughly disagree with their politics (Rees-Mogg, John Redwood) Matt Stadlen always conducts a civil interview that makes you want to listen, and you always come away better informed. Just recently very much enjoyed Otto Scott and Jeremy Hunt. Really good stuff. Loved the run of interviews with cricketers and commentators. A joy.
