Trans Atlantic with Stephen Natla
by Stephen Natla
Trans Atlantic with Stephen Natla is an off the wall, unorthodox, idiosyncratic and, most importantly, independent look at current events and politics. With his dry, wry and often historically marinated views Natla takes no prisoners and he isn’t dumbing down anything for anyone. So outsider he’s practically a space alien, Natla’s analysis and machine gun style delivery focuses predominantly on events taking place on either side of the Atlantic. Some have called him the secret intellectual love child of Coulter, Sanders, Brand and Paxman. In his ongoing quest for deeper analysis and a rejection of the partisan, trite, glitzy and superficial you can be sure that he’s going to give you opinions that are different, unique and occasionally maddening. Whatever your position, and whatever side of the Atlantic you reside on, you can be sure this is one of the most potent podcasts you’ll come across. If you’re mad as hell and not going to take it anymore, Trans Atlantic has you covered.
