Just heard your latest episode where you grouped all of the Punjab farmers as hooligans and stated that they can’t have civilized protests as some people from the South. How about you try to inform the public about why there are protests happening rather than influencing other people’s views in a highly negative way? Shame.

Great analysis of the week’s news and its coverage. By the most passionate group of journalists around.

NL spends lot of time criticizing other publications and media houses. I find their reporting void of depth lacking in objectivity. They seem emotinal and have a lot of preconceived notions. They need to bring up their game, stop bickering and produce content that brings out all the nuances, be original, else what is so different about NL?

This used to an excellent podcast in its early days, featuring a balanced selection of opinions from all sides of political spectrum and an in-depth analyses. However, after the departure of Anand Ranganathan and save rare interventions from some fellow invited guests or Anand Vardhan, the podcast has lately turned into a leftist, anti-Modi, anti-Arnab rant by its host Abhinandan. Often the fellow panelists gang up against the lone dissenter on the podcast and change the entire discourse into imposing their views. There is total disregard of ‘respecting the other opinion’ and most of the panelists often indulge in labeling any dissenting voice as a right-winger, bhakt or bigot. What is still great are recommendations from a few panelists especially Madhu Trehan. The songs at the end are slapstick with no connection with the theme. Not sure if they are played for their entertainment value (which is zero) or other esoteric purposes.

I became politically aware when I came to the US and trump happened. One thing that helped me become interested in politics was the amazing number of podcasts about American politics that were produced. I am glad to see something similar from an Indian news source. I can’t wait to see more such podcasts come up.

Really good, must for everyone trying to follow Indian news, specially those located overseas.

I am regular to this NL hafta little more than a year. Really enjoyed discussion ..Not giving 5 star coz abhinandhan is too irritating some times with subscription request. Rest all is great.
