Miranda Sawyer • The Guardian • Oct 8, 2017
"...it’s actually a podcast that offers alternative approaches to today’s upsettingly unfair society. Both hosts know who they are and what they’re good at. They’re cynical enough to take the mick out of themselves, but also sincere enough to believe that talking to experts about societal problems might lead to a better world. The switch between the two modes – silly and serious – is slightly clunky, but only a teensy-weensy bit; most of that clunk is caused by you wanting Lloyd and Miliband to carry on chatting, sans experts. They have a genuinely warm rapport."
