  • They’re all good

    Great podcast. I am more than happy for Jane Mulkerrins to stand in for Jane and Fi. A great journalist that brings a different perspective to conversations.

  • Love it esp Fi and Eve

    I love this pod. Big thumbs up to Fi alone or with Eve ( her radio voice is to die for) if Jane has to be away. Can’t listen to Jane Mulkerrins - sorry. Love the non-guest episodes most. Btw did CVT insist on being called - ‘Professor’ every time? A bit needy and cringe if so.

  • How rude!

    Fi’s dismissive and sarcastic attitude towards Petula Clark was quite shocking and inappropriate. I would think the same whoever the guest was she was referring to. Even went back to double down on it after the current day’s interview was over. Not funny, just mean
