The topic is interesting to me so I gave it a go, but by God this podcast (quite popular I hear) is insufferable. Why is everyone trying to be a comedian? Why does one of the guest sound like they’re on Valium? And I cannot stand the air of basic anti-intellectualism I keep getting from American presenters, where any piece of information is met with a groan and a joke.

I reckon not every podcast can be as excellent as The Rest Is History, for example.

I’m waiting for some coverage on the pillock from this side of the pond.

Whilst I enjoy their topics, I do admit their banter feels like it's talking down to the audience
