  • Good podcast, bad host

    I am making my way through the back catalog listening to any episode that catches my attention (~70% of them) and overall the podcast is definitely worth your time, the only drawback being Knight himself. Not taking it too seriously sets an appropriate and welcome tone but his ‘Aussification’ of historical conversations is cringey at best and detracts from the experience. more
