A highly recommended Politics podcast

This week I have started listening to Talking Politics
I have been extolling the virtues of subject related podcasts here for a while.

Re Talking Politics, according to the Guardian:
"Launched after the Brexit vote in 2016 by Cambridge University professor David Runciman, Talking Politics is a weekly podcast that covers international and domestic affairs. Runciman is joined by a regular panel of fellow Cambridge academics and one-off guests."
I began with "How's Biden Doing?" given that his 100 days in office milestone is coming soon, and it was fascinating and high level stuff. So much so that despite the author having a Master's Degree in Politics, I had to rewind on a few occasions to get the full flavour of what Runciman and his guests were talking about. Lesson learned: it is not something necessarily for a busy commute, given that it merits full concentration on behalf of the listener.
Definitely one for those of you who moved on from the BBC news as your main source of analysis of political developments!!
