  • Enlightening, accessible, and useful

    It’s rare to find a podcast that is enlightening, accessible, and useful all at the same time. Some podcasts fulfill one of those criteria. But not many fulfill all of them. I learned a lot, the presentation is clear and accessible, and the content is useful for education. Highly recommended.
