Hosts are good about staying on topic while remaining interesting. Focused but not stale. I’m not so into the branding and music, but the discussion is pretty good (I’ve only listened to free episodes).

Haven’t listened. Reading the descriptions it kinda sounds gay. Sorry!

Can be good if they interview someone who is smarter than the hosts. At their worst it’s conspiracy minded culture warrior nonsense.

I tried listening to this, and the people seemed interesting enough and like maybe they have interesting things to say. But all this really is is an advertisement for their “reading club,” and I wish they were more direct about that.

As a US citizen who spent decades of my younger adult living in the East End amongst Leftists, I find these guys a breath of calm, fresh air. Bright young leftists who can still be funny. As my (English) husband once asked years ago, “What’s up with all of these overly sincere, humourless, American hippies?” I answered, “How would I know? I grew up in rural Wisconsin.” It’s good to feel like I’m home Aufa Bunga people.

Great show; very entertaining and enlightening. My one issue though is that the feed is a complete mess. New episodes are hard to find, while older ones are hidden under a heap of 2-minute trailers. I’m not sure if I should blame the show, or the way iTunes catalogues old episodes. Either way, if you can manage to find new, complete episodes, this pod is gold! Keep it up lads!

Find the podcast quite compelling and entertaining. Central thrust of the project (an autopsy of a Left they have separated themselves from) contains a lot of media class myopia (are teenagers on twitter canceling you really the driving cause of the left’s evaporating social base? Is Owen Jones a cause or might he be a symptom?) but the charm of the hosts and the level of analysis means there’s something valuable in most episodes. Do wish they would stop referring to the left as “they,” though. If you’re a Marxist you’re on the left whether you care to be or not, and the purpose of Marxist analysis is, after all, to change the world rather than describe it in various ways via interviews with intelligent guests.

I’ve been listening for a few months now and really enjoy the format. They have different guests and it’s not always a current events round table, which I appreciate. Usually I can’t stand British accents, but these hosts have highly tolerable british or irish accents; their voices are actually quite pleasant.

I take something away from every episode and enjoy it all the while.

Witty and irreverent. This is the pure sauce right here, friends. They’re wrong about Brexit, but pretty much on point about everything else. And even when they’re wrong, they’re kind of right.

One of the best political podcasts if you're looking for a real working class analysis of the times.

Horrible

ludicrous ivory tower leftism

The aforementioned series is one the great achievements of both the podcasting medium and of 21st century class-first socialism. The rest of the show is good, too.

The American left is weak on international politics as well as largely incapable of doing real left cultural criticism without jargon, obscurantism, and celebrity worship. These are the strong points of this podcast.

Listened to an Amber episode and sucked into a dozen and counting. Great work everyone, keep it up.

the last few have been especially great -- became a patreon donor this week!

Love it very informative

Of my top podcasts. Very insightful analysis. I recommend this podcast to everyone.

Incredibly insightful analyses and discussion. I have learned a lot about the contemporary political landscape from this ‘cast and their well-chosen guests.

This show, although a bit tough to follow at times due to the level of expertise on the show, is extraordinary. This is exactly what I want in a long form podcast, deep dives into nuanced topics, cultural considerations into political/historical topics, and it’s funny sometimes. I like the show.

One of the best leftwing podcasts out there. Always original, very entertaining, and global the range of topics it covers.

This is the best podcast on the left. It features great guests and hosts that provide unique and fresh perspectives on international political economy. Great work guys keep it up!

The premiere left international politics podcast. Funny, engaging, clever, and full of new ideas

You should listen.

One of the best left podcasts. Provides a vital international perspective with depth and humor.

Outstanding mix of serious interviews and insightful commentary, with a laugh or two for good measure. Essential listening for anyone craving a global perspective on politics and the Left without all the buzz-fueled outrage of the trendy-bendy identitariat or the self-aggrandizing hair splitting of the philosophy crowd.

This is an excellent podcast. Stimulating discussions on a range of issues, with goofy banter in the mix too. Check it out.
