  • Like the program, but…

    I really like this podcast. It is very informative. However, I can rarely play it from the Apple podcast app. I end up watching it on YouTube because the podcast app will not load the show.

    Cannot listen to the American presenter. Can’t answer a question without a silly ramble and weird behaviour and conduct throughout the show
