Good podcast
Great podcast
I love the guests and host. But am I crazy or is the audio so that there are no breaths by the guest and the audio is sped up? Please, a regular pace and breathing helps me keep up otherwise it’s a machine gun.
Great format for what would otherwise have been a very academic field. Great tempo, and very lovely accent of the host. Every time you here him hoping you as the listener, is well, you have this warm feeling he actually care. Thanks for a great show. Hope for many more sessions cause I have now listened to all episodes.
