Reviews
- Why the background music?
I find the background music completely distracting in these podcasts. And as for the infantile sound effects, words fail me! (A cash register to signal the word “trigger”and little mice sounds when animal research is mentioned.) Luke is more than interesting enough. I really wish I could listen to more of this, but I’m totally put off by the background noise.

Walton asked him to simplify his question but he still used technical terms. Walton turned to us all and said if anyone real... more
