What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Listened to my first episode today and didn’t unfollow only as phone was in the shed while working outside. Luckily I got through the first flippant 10 min, because the remainder was quite useful.

Sabang97 · Jul 2023

I love everything about this show! Genius from start to finish, consistently. The talent, the analysis, the extremely important subject space that it fills, but not least of all, I love the format. More CSIS shows could benefit from this show’s excellent example. ——— “Pacific Airwaves” also gets 5 stars! Ms. Lee is clearly very talented, and this is highly needed content that should be permanent, not ephemeral.
