  • Brilliant advice and so passionate about his subject

    Anyone who finds his passionate delivery too rapid can read the transcript or reduce the speed on playback!! I love him though.

I’m sure she probably does know her stuff and nothing against her personally, but her way of explaining things is so infuriatingly bad! Martin trying to get a complete answer out of her on anything felt like trying to get blood out of a stone. At best she only half answered each question and her replies sometimes didn’t really match the question at all, or were based on assumptions that weren’t accurate t... more
