  • Lydia Dugdale - Wow!

    Thoroughly fascinating podcast. I have survived my original prognosis by more than 10 years. I have also studied dying from a Christian’s perspective a great deal. Lydia”s information and discussion was very welcome. Thank you.

    No source of media has made a bigger impact in my life than this podcast. Russ takes listeners on a journey to understand. There are no solutions only trade-offs, and that not everything should be viewed purely from one lens, but from multiple dimensions. Highly recommended.

  • Too much blah

    The first few minutes were just blather from people who don’t know how to speak in public. And promoting a YouTube channel instead of your own podcast? Amateurs.
