    New listener by a few episodes, and looking at the catalogue no question I’m bound to listen to all. 5 stars, cannot imagine any fewer is possible. Great work and many thanks for keeping history alive in a world when in 2025 it’s disappearing to fit a specific narrative. Thank you Mark, please keep going.
