AldoBermondseyLove Red BoxLove this podcast. Used to work in British politics in a previous life and then I changed field and moved to the US. Red Box is amazing

CTCNOLAI expected moreThe 14 December episode (“Because they are worth it”) was awful. The anti-Brexit, anti-Boris commentators absolutely fawning over Ursula Von Der Leyen was sickening. I turned it off. I usually enjoy this podcast and enjoy hearing differing political points of view, BUT this was just too much. I may give this another chance, BUT this episode is clearly “strike one” as we might say in the USA.

REPay1Companionable JournalistMatt Chorley is a cheery guy down the pub, interested and engaged. He asks sensible questions and doesn't seem to want to force his own opinions in the questioning line unlike the new woke BBC.

suzshawInsight from Across the PondI’d rather keep current on UK politics than US politics these days — it’s just that little bit less painful. Matt Chorley, Esther Webber and their guests bring both humor and insight to whatever’s going on in British politics. They even dip a toe into US events from time to time. I look forward to this podcast every week, eager to learn what fresh angle they’ve come up with. It supplements the weekday Red Box email newsletter beautifully.

JimboT3Great source of news from the UKThe Red Box is an informed source of news covering the UK and the world. This is a pleasant respite from the daily news coming out of the news outlets in the US which seem to focus only on our incompetent Trump administration which provides a deluge of lies and corruption.

CogetteUSCracking good listenI Adore Matt Charley’s take on politics which manages to deliver the facts without making me reach for a Prozac. He and Esther and the rest of the recurring news people are a little corner of sanity and humor in a political world run amok. After Brexit please come over and take on Trump’s Washington. We need you!

ColoradoRightInside the Westminster Bubble - and always WrongIf this is representative of the intelligensia and ruling class of the UK, it is not surprising that their country is becoming a third-world slum. In the weeks leading up to the Brexit vote, every panelist was asked "what will be the percentage for Remain?" (because remaining in the EU was the only possible result). I don't think I heard one single person actually predict that Britian would vote to leave the EU. "60% remain, 75% remain" were common. It is fun to listen to the accents and try and guess what upper class twit school each one attended. But just know that their track record on predicting or undertanding anything other than the "reality" of looking down their noses leftists at the antics of the peasants is wrong. As witnessed by their latest episode reviewing Trump's first year since election, with the assumed expectation that no one in the world actually supports Donald Trump.

Gaurav SinghviInsightful PodcastLook forward to it dropping every week. Matt Chorley is a good host. He is not biased and has a good sense of humor. He and his guests are able to discuss important issues in such a way that both SW1 insiders and political neophytes will find it informative.

JohnNordinBalanced, goes beyond the headlinesIntelligent commentary on the cut and thrust of policts but what makes it interesting is the analysis and insight on the deeper currents. Less 'liberal' or 'conservative' than measured and thoughful.

Quentin BaxterHello from USAI worked on the Hillary Clinton Campiagn and I am now so sick of American politics. The red box has helped kindle my love of politics again by giving me great perspective on UK politics. With out you I would be ignoring all politics podcast.
