Some guests and episodes are better than others but it often feels like context and perspective are sacrificed in the altar of slightly smug navel gazing.

This podcast is dedicated to snark, not understanding human complexity.

I'm an identikit non-WASP Guardian-reading left-wing hater of what's happened to the World since 2016 (and earlier). So why did I hate the Dr Seuss episode so much? Because a piece of copybook Anti-Semitism was allowed to pass without edit or apology with regard to a subject who wasn't even Jewish. If Russell Kane was a better and cleverer comedian (or at least as good as he keeps reminding us he is) the guest would have been properly put in their place. But in a thoroughly one-sided hatchet job it was ironic that such bigotry crept through barely acknowledged and with no apology.
