United States7 days ago - So fun It feels like I’ve only been listening for two years.
I’ve been here for four.
I love how much more enthusiastic Jason sounds compared to how he sounded at the beginning of this podcast, and I really liked the special goose episode. In general, this podcast has been a constant in my life for quite a bit, and I’m glad for having come.
Also, if there’s enough content behind the folklore/urban legend, could you (please) please one day make a Herne the hunter episode?
