I like this show and like how the podcasts are uploaded quickly. Some of the zany features are great and Sean is a brilliant host.

Noteworthy is the show's habit of pairing long-form, idea-driven conversations (from medieval laws about bees to tree-scale art projects) with lighter, everyday topics like holidays, headphones etiquette, and cinema or literature debates, creating a versatile slate that appeals to curious, info-seeking listen... more
