Recent Reviews
  • Queen Gracie of None
    Long time fan but.. the sound quality could be improved
    The interviews are great and the topics are diverse. But something about the sound quality is subtly grating, sometimes I can’t endure it. It probably isn’t noticeable on radio, and maybe age plays a role too. It sounds like lossy compression has been used and the compression is too aggressive. I love this show and I recommend it, but I can’t give five stars at this time because of the sound quality.
  • Uhtred of Auckland
    Fills the kiwi cup
    As a kiwi living in the USA this podcast fills my cup and gives that dose of kiwi news and interviews. Kim is iconic. My only ask is release the full Saturday morning program in a one episode. (Would be nice to just put on the full episode and catch up instead of selecting each story) cheers
  • C Kay W
