  • One suggestion

    I love your show, thank you for making it. My only beef is the jarring, in-your-face, heroic mountain music that starts the show. I often listen to podcasts when I can't sleep, and this music is so loud and intrusive. How about some meditative Hardangar fiddle music instead? thanks for considering.
