BOO!-LAFour perspectives are better than oneAs a follower of Steve Richard’s excellent podcast “Rock n Roll Politics’, I was interested to listen to his new venture with 3 other political observers. It is superb. Four intelligent people who listen to each other, recognize each other’s good ideas, argue like friends in a non-hysterical manner and have plenty of their own ideas. It’s a true circular diagnosis and smart analysis of British and World politics. I learn something, and get mildly excited (!).... every time a pod drops. Great stuff.
