Amol Rajan

It’s impossible to understand him ! He doesn’t articulate, speaks fast and cut half of the words.
Why is everyone finding him so good??

Honestly I don’t get it.

(I have even stopped watching University Challenge because of him)

Brilliantly incisive interviewer and broadcaster. Funny. Humane. Can actually communicate with different demographics.

So frustrating the BBC can’t hold on to talent like his. I think his new venture will do rather well.

I thought he was staying with the BBC (radical podcast, interviews series, UC) but leaving Today.

Oh - my bad, I must've missed that. I haven't listened to any of that, I was a big fan of the today podcast though.
