    Michael Stewart is completely unlistenable. The level of insight and quality of chat is several lacking. Had to turn off the Scotland Iceland preview a couple of minutes in as it was so irritating. Also I’m sure Phil Goodlad is a really nice guy but my gran could come out with better cliched fluff.
