  • Compelling and Whimsical!

    E. S. shows through his compelling writing that nothing is mundane when it comes to secret passages and tunnels, and there are good stories lurking everywhere. E. S. has a fantastic voice to listen to and the little flourishes of humor really give this podcast heart and whimsy along with its serious (and deep – see what I did there?) subject matter. Highly recommended!
