Transcripts ARE GO!

NICK DE SOUZA
About this episode

Hello dear listener! The number one request I have had is that transcripts be made available. Well, if you listen on Spotify, now they are! The A Level Politics Show now has transcripts of every episode! How about that! What’s great is that Spotify let’s you listen along and read the transcript at the same time as listening to it, or you could have the sound off if you don’t like the sound of my voice (my wife tells me that this is what she does). You can also just skip to the section in the transcript that you find most useful and start playback from wherever you want. 

 

How do you do this? Okay, follow these simply steps. 

 

1)    In the Spotify app, go to The A Level Politics Show podcast page. 

2)    Click on the episode you are interested in. 

3)    Scroll to the bottom of that page and tap on “Episode Transcripts”. And there you have it! 

 

 

Plus Plus Plus subscribers will be able to access every single transcript of every podcast ever produced – at the time of recording that’s 140-odd transcripts. Yet another reason why subscribing is such a good idea – for just £1.99 per month you get access to the complete back catalogue of The A Level Politics Show, spanning over four years, lasting longer than three British PMs and hundreds of government ministers (okay in the current environment that’s not too difficult). What is more, you’ll get 2 bonus pods, exclusive to subscribers, along with the standard free episode, every single month. Click ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to get started!  You can cancel at anytime and there are no hidden costs. 

 

That’s it from me for 2023 – I hope that you all have a wonderful New Year!
