    Another listener from Australia.

    This podcast got me through the Covid lockdowns. I remember seeing fabric masks for the local aged care facility and listening for hours on end. Thank you, Paul!

    Please put a physical microphone filter over/in front of the mic, or drink more water. Wh... more
