    A great time to review past episodes
    If you're struggling to work out how the world got to the mess in Ukraine : go and listen to Russia if you're listening. It is quickly apparent that it was inevitable. Great Journalism. Listen to all series.

    About as unbiased as you can possibly get
    Fantastic, entertaining reporting. It gives Trump credit where its due, so you know it’s not just unfettered trump-bashing. Just intelligent, fact-based journalism Edit: this show just gets better every season. Thank you to the whole team for giving us factual, balanced yet entertaining journalism. This level of communication is hard to find these days

    From the Outside Looking In
    I always try to find an outside perspective to take a hard look at our country — America. And this podcast is as good as it gets. Matt Bevin does a great job of looking back at all the craziness that was the Trump presidency. If you’re just stumbling onto this in November of 2021 it is still well worth your time to go back and listen to every episode. First rate.

    Invaluable
    It is often said that those with a foreign perspective can be more objective than those who are mired in the daily mix. That clearly applies to Matt Bevin’s podcast, one of MANY great programs on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, affectionately known by most as simply “The ABC”. These podcasts pack a powerful punch in a quick amount of time with very powerful information that I wish more American voters were aware of. Given how busy most lives are, I think this is especially effective because these podcasts are relatively brief, entertaining, impactful, and can fit into the time it takes to do dishes, fold laundry, etc.. Spread the word.

    This podcast is not true!
    Now that more information is out, I listened to the podcast on George Papadopoulos and this podcast is being completely looked at as nothing other than fiction to me!
  • Sonic Purity!
    Everyone should listen to the last episode of Season 3
    including the entire U.S. Senate.

    As Good as it Gets

    The Aussie knows Russia
    This is an amazingly good podcast. Whether you’ve always been Russia obsessed and have followed each twist and turn or are new and want to get the story in context and told well: LISTEN. (Also, the way he says Aluminum is a great bonus.)
  • Capemd
    Fascinating and disturbing story
    Informative review of cast of characters and chronology of Trump’s Russian connections. Australian accented reportage a plus in pulling together this collage of tawdry misdeeds.
  • dana5298
    Excellent
    Very informative, highly logical, honest recounting of history I am too young to deeply understand. Dear sir, you are doing the job that American media (more importantly our families) should be doing.
  • Hunter in Atlanta
    Anti-Russian Propaganda
    This podcast presents an extremely biased, one-sided view of Russia. Each episode is aimed at disparaging both Russia and Putin’s reputation. There is no real objectivity from the host, and there is little to no engagement with the various other sides of this debate.
  • Calwashore
    Excellent summary of Trump’s situation
    I listen to many American podcasts about the political situation here in the U.S. When I saw this podcast, I wondered what it would look like to someone from another culture. I have probably learned more from this podcast than from all the other ones put together. Maybe it’s so good because the contributors are explaining things simply to a mostly Australian audience who don’t understand the American system. Whatever the reason, I am hooked and will probably binge the rest of the episodes this week. Excellent work. Well done!

    Be entertained while you watch our democracy die
    This is a great podcast. Start with episodes 2, 3, and 6 if you’re unsure. Well sourced, accurate, nice dry wit, and delightful (and horrifying) to listen to.
  • lkimme
    I really enjoy it
    They do a great job of explaining the history of the characters of the Russia investigation. I love the way they drill down on the cast of characters individually. Each character's history w/ Russia and the way they overlap other character's history is fascinating.

    Russia If You’re Listening
    Amazing podcast. I wanted to educate myself about the Russian situation, and this is a clear straightforward explanation of what is happening & how we got here. As indictments continue to roll in, I’m sure it will be even more interesting & a valuable resource.
  • Karaannk
    Great podcast
    If you are curious as to what is really going on with Russia and Trump- listen to this podcast. Simple, straightforward, and honest.
