The information is good, but the annoying and mindless but loud background music makes it hard to focus on what the experts are saying.
Well researched and coherently presented
A fantastic, balanced podcast that really gives just the right amount of facts. You learn enough to feel you are doing what you can, and knowing what is going on where. Very clear explanations, but not so much so that you feel uneducated. It’s an invaluable resource in a changing pandemic.
This podcast explains things currently happening in a way that lets you see things on a very human level. Listening from Australia I can only give my thanks for well described and touching window of what is occurring on the other side of the world.
