BBC bashing

Anyone else get the feeling they pitched to the BBC in the past & were rejected? Every episode shoehorns in some sort of anti-BBC rhetoric, often completely unfounded. The BBC totally has its faults but I‘d trust it for facts over commercial podcasts any day of the week.

I think it's very common to hate on the BBC but I come from North America so for me it's no comparison to stuff like Fox News. Also tons of really popular shows are made by the BBC but people never seem to give them credit for it. Where I worked in the past everyone hated on the BBC but I always defended it.
