  • Superb!

    12 Points from America is such a good podcast! The group’s real love of the contest shines through and they treat it with respect while still having fun with all the out there aspects. Being a fan since the late 70s (yes, I’m old!) I really appreciate the knowledge of the older contests. Just wonderful!
