- The Train! The Train! (Fantasy Island reference)
I learned a lot from this and enjoyed it very much. Your banter is exhortative. ☺️ I’ve changed my mind, you have to tell me all about taking the Orient Express when, not if, you experience it. Vicarious is better than nothing!

United Statesa month ago - What might Poe rate this?
Of course, I have no clue how Poe would rate this fun podcast, but he’d probably be grateful for the promotion of his stories, give it 5 stars, and perhaps cease plotting to bury anyone else alive. As for me, I give it a five star review. I enjoy the back-and-forth, am impressed that you read some books aloud with each other, and hope Stacey returns with updates on her own reading.
