Good show but the male host is very rude to the female host He constantly interrupts her and frequently interjects with less than informed "devils advocate" opinions. These interjections don't add context or information to the archaeology being discussed. His rudeness in certain episodes makes the show hard to listen to
The show is so frustrating because the info is good, but the hosts cannot stop talking over each other, often with just the word “yeah” repeated constantly. I’m hoping they see this, because otherwise it’s be a good show- it’s just really hard to listen to. It should be more successful than it is, “yeahs” aside.
Very knowledgeable hosts that cover a wide array of topics and interesting news in the field. Their personal knowledge and humor really add to the show in a meaningful way
This is not an intensively serious information session but a rather fun, interesting and relaxed approach to archaeological discussion.
Some great RV and international travel ideas here, as well as some very careful looks at today’s news about yesterday’s life, via archaeology.
Key themes from listener reviews, highlighting what works and what could be improved about the show.
