The political podcast Politics at the Amstel, produced by AT5, Het Parool and De Telegraaf, began a new line-up on 22 October 2026. Roos van Riel and Madelief van Dongen joined for Het Parool and were to alternate, alongside Nicolai Brannan for AT5 and Marijn Schrijver for De Telegraaf. The podcast is scheduled for Fridays outside parliamentary recess and is available via Spotify, Apple Music and the websites of AT5 and Het Parool. The episodes discussed Mayor Femke Halsema, road safety and the proposed ban on disposable packaging, as well as the reorganisation of the municipal civil service. Later episodes covered doubts about the success of the Vondelpark fatbike ban, higher parking-permit rates planned for 2027 and declining acceptance of LGBTQI+ people in the city.
