  • Very Good - A Bit Woke - But Very good

    Great podcast with two fantastic hosts. Very entertaining, not always the most comprehensively researched, but very solid and well produced.

    That said, there is an annoying tendency for the podcast to go way too woke - especially the episode on Bigelow’s ‘Strange Days’ which included the most annoying guest (the only episode that I struggled with). Thankfully it is not a persistent problem, more a periodic problem.

    Overall, an excellent podcast.
