- Amazing insight
Absolutely LOVE(!) to listen to these two. I have finally found a community of people who care about the lake and shed as much as I do!
Nick’s incredible lake insights, together with John’s detail-oriented research of shed, is an incredible listening experience. I am always surprised at how much goes over my head when reading Rowling, but listening to these two helps me learn more.
My only critique: I wish there were more episodes! ;)

This podcast is in-depth and goe... more
