  • Can’t rate

    I didn’t bother to listen after reading reviews about host interrupting the quest. It plaques most podcasts for the the exception of Levi Dalton whom all podcasters should listen and learn

  • Blind tastings

    I love the blind tasting podcasts and how each person has a unique approach. I also like the structure component that is usually discussed.

    I noticed there was no tasting episode for July 2024- I hope it’s not going away!
