I listen to this every week while I work on a strawberry farm in Japan. It’s perfect for me. Now, it might not work for you if you work on a Japanese melon farm, or even a strawberry farm in Korea, but it suits my listening needs perfectly so it’s worth a shot for you too.
I came for the book and it was blah with at least the three hosts entertained themselves. Far too much use of the word ‘I’ I had stop listening.
Terrible ep..
One of the best book based podcasts out there.
Great show keep up the work
